“Lovely set but NOT magnetic. A bit disappointed because I searched for magnetic chess set and was pleased to see a Jacques product amongst the options. Amazon, the items that come up should match the search accurately.”
“The packaging for the board looked really professional, made it feel like a quality product was going to be inside, but I was disappointed with the product itself, the board had glue marks, the inside had not been sanded, I didnt have high expectations because of the price I paid, but simple finishing elements have been missed, the chess pieces themselves were great had no issues with them, but most importantly the kids loved it”
“This was bought as an Xmas gift for my teenage Goddaughter. The packaging is very nice, quite classy. I didnt open the item as it was a present, but was a bit concerned as a few reviews mentioned dents in the board and pieces. I have since heard from the recipient and she loves it, so I can only assume everything was ok.The service was consistently good and personalised.”
“A nice quality product! It can easily fit into a rucksack so that you could play on the move, say on a train for example. I would liked to of seen a small felt bag to give the board extra protection while in transit.”
“Bought it for our son who is a teacher and very techy savvy but a chess fan. In his last school primary he ran a chess club and we hope this reignites his interest. Its a beautiful set the box and pieces are lovely to handle and we just know hell use it its very tactile. My husband was quite envious when he saw it! The packaging was a lovely finishing touch. Im already thinking who else I could buy one for!”
