Sports reviews of Drueke 877.10 Magnetic Chess Set

Customer Review: Great for the price and the use it will recieve
Sport shop rating: 4 Stars

This Chess set was the perfect answer to a dillemma. My boyfriend is serving our country over in Iraq. We both play chess and we were both going to miss being able to play very much. Right before he left, he mailed me a package with a chess set he had picked out for me. And enclosed "the rules" these rules simple put it that each person could make a move over IM, Letter Or email and could only make one turn per contact. This sounded great to me, but he did not have a chess set. Since they move him around quite a bit a regular chess set would have been cumbersome and setting it up and taking it down would have been problematic as well.

I found this chess set on Amazon and although it has a couple of minor things that i would have liked to be better, it is an excellent overall product.
The Queen and King could be a tad easier to distinguish, but despite that, the magnets could hold the peices in place even shaking it around, the lid stayed on securely, and provided the perfect answer to our dillema.

Now My boyfriend can still play chess with me from the otherside of the planet, in a war zone. Having this little chess set is allowing me to somehow feel a little closer and to help him keep his spirits up. This little chess set is in an indirect way supporting our troops.

Thanks for such a space saving, Portable product!
