Sports reviews of House of Staunton 3.875" Plastic Hastings Chess Set
Customer Review: Great Set. Nice color. (red)
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Ordered on Sunday - arrived on Thursday. Quick shipment.
This is my first "real" set. I've usually used smaller sets made of wood, marble, plastic.
This set has a nice & wide base and includes a nice roll-up board that has a good size for these pieces.
The pieces are weighted, yet aren't too heavy. They definitely shouldn't topple over accidentally, but are not cumbersome to move.
The Knights are exquisite, very detailed, with nostrils flared open as if in the moment of attack.
The set comes with an extra Queen of each color (nice touch) and the red set is more of a wine/maroon color which I like. I was expecting a more vivid red, but this color is a bit subtle and seems to have a somewhat serious tone to it.
The Kings are pretty tall & easy to pickup as are all of the pieces. With the wide base, all have ample room between pieces to allow easy usage.
All in all, a very nice set at a great price (even including the somewhat high shipping price)
