I am a retired teacher, living in a retirement home. I planned to use this chess set to teach some of the residents who either have always wanted to learn chess, or played years ago and wanted a refresher. This set is "sort of okay" for that purpose. First, the pieces are too light. You bump into one piece and three or four fall over; they need to be weighted. Second, the board works beautifully if you're playing but not if you want to do a demonstration: here's how the rook moves, here's how the bishop moves, etc. I'm using my own (regular) board for now, and when the folks are familiar enough with moving the pieces, and are ready to play, I'll bring out this one. I'm sure it'll be great then; it just doesn't work for teaching outside of the "play" format.
