“Exactly like the ads. My 8yo daughter loves it and has played daily since getting it with her friends, US, and her grandmother. She is learning quickly and now teaching friends.”

“Best AI chess board on the market hands down! Well worth the money and is worth buying the carrying case for travel!”

“I received my chess board as a gift. I have been using it consistently since then. I appreciate the quality of the product and the interaction with the App. I also purchased a carry-on case to travel with it on my trips. It is a good product that I hope to become more price-competitive for the game's sake. If the mission of Chess Up to have more young people learn and appreciate chess, then that will be the case.”

“I'm a mediocre chess player, but am learning strategies and special moves with Chessup. I also purchased the checkers so that when I'm tired of losing in chess, then I can play checkers! LOL!! Great set in my opinion. Quality construction! A little pricey, but worth the money.”

“I was so excited for this purchase that I didn’t mind the 2.5 week wait to receive it. The ChessUp board has failed every expectation I’ve had since receiving it. Playing online is useless as you Will be at a significant time disadvantage and likely lose massive amounts of elo. I have received multiple bans for the apps inability to connect to games, where it then aborts, or fails mid game and doesn’t allow me to make any more moves. This occurs both on Chess.com and LiChess. The AI function seemed fun until it got to the point where it takes 5 minutes for the AI to make a move. No one has time for that long of a game when I could just play stockfish online. So essentially the board has boiled all the way down to only being used to play against friends who don’t understand the game and can see where pieces are able to move. Is that really worth $300? I think not. Chess up has all the potential, but an awful execution.”

“I saw the board at youtube and wanted to have it! In the beginning everything was fine. The board is very handsome and every function worked. I am a CM and wanted to play with a board at lichess and chess.com. My problems started wird the firmware-update 1.9.2: Lichess is still fine but chess.com is not working anymore. The board shows the first move of my opponent and is not accepting my first move! This problem is unsolved. The next problem: With a full loaded board I can only play 4 hours and not 8! And I would recommend an improvement to the board updates: If the board uses the actual version, why don`t you use the sentence "It ist no update available"? I am waiting for more developments of the board in the future!”

“I ordered checker pieces and phone stand and never received them. It has been well over a month waiting for them and i was never told they would not arrive with the chess board”

“It’s a great concept, but the software is an absolute mess. Requires connectivity with the app to do anything but a *very* stripped down game against low level AI. Which would be fine…but the app is essentially nonfunctional. Erases games in progress if you get out of range sometimes, almost always reverts back a varying amount of moves if you get out of range of the board. Saving a game to resume later is a crapshoot if it’ll remember the game correctly or remember it at all. The fancy assistance lighting that’s the selling point of the board periodically stops giving assistance even if you’re connected and in range. The board also doesn’t recognize what individual pieces are, just that there’s a piece on the square. I suppose they didn’t say it did, but it still seems cheap for a $400 board to not recognize a pawn vs a queen. I’ve documented all this at length and out of 104 games I’ve started, I’ve been able to finish a total of 2 without some part of the functionality or software failing. Pretty sad. Update: A patch was released that fixed some of the issues….for about a week. Now the board is back to being unplayable if it connects to the app at all. Essentially all it can do is play offline with only the settings that the board can handle without using the app…which is a very small fraction of what it was advertised to be able to do.”

“I am enjoying ChessUp quite a bit since purchasing the game. It provides for a nice relaxing time and the technology makes it easy to learn. I’m very happy that I’ve made this purchase. My only other comment is that I didn’t receive the bag, poker chips, stand, etc., that I also ordered in my initial purchase.”

“I purchased this for my 11 year old and I to play together and it’s super fun! Learning how the board works when assisting is not the easiest, still not sure what the difference in colors mean. The board comes is a very bulky box so I am hoping that the case makes the game more transportation friendly! Also hoping that as the board develops the tutorials on how to use the board are easier to find and fallow. Learning how to use the board is taking a lot more time and effort than I thought it would. Over all I am happy I made the purchase and enjoy the experience with my son!”

“Bought it for our children who enjoy playing chess at very different levels. Easy to set up and use. AI opponent and AI assistance are great for learning or for a challenging match. App set up was almost automatic. Still exploring options. Overall a great purchase”
