Tournament Special Series WoodTek™ Double‑Weighted Plastic Chess Set - 3.75" King

This set is a winner! This impressive German style Staunton set is a genuine bargain. The pieces do not look or feel like plastic. The size, weight, precision craftsmanship, and the satin finish give the impression of a pricey wood set. Used on either a woodgrain mouse pad rollup board or on an expensive traditional all wood board, these pieces add a welcome and classy touch to your game. Highly recommended.

Outstanding chess pieces! Having played only wood for years, I wanted a less formal and more affordable set for travel and casual play. This impressive wood grain set exceeded my expectations in every way. Each piece is carefully crafted with almost unnoticeable mold lines. The design is indeed German-style Staunton. The piece weight is substantial and feels terrific in my hands. The bottom felt does its job well. This German set is a very attractive match with the Rosewood & Maple Floppy Mouse Pad Chess Board. These chess pieces match well with this portable rollup board and the combo is a joy to play. Well done Chess Store!

Solid plastic set - they have a good weight/feel to them. I wouldn't say they feel like wood, but they don't necessarily feel like plastic either. Almost like a weird in-between. I'm not a huge fan of the King's crown, but other than that, solid chess set. I may consider bringing them to a USCF tournament but for now, will use them to play classical matches at my house.

The BEST plastic set ever. They don’t feel like plastic at all. Good weight. These are a copy of the FIDE rapid & blitz tournament set. Unless you’re married to wood, get this set. You won’t be disappointed

The design of the pieces is spectacular, one of the most beautiful I have seen, the quality is AAA. BUT ... don't you have a team to check the quality of the shipment? Many pieces have the bottom green cloth with holes or broken.

Well balanced pieces and amazing quality on each of the pieces.

Communist set?? The king has not the christianity symbolism, yet the bishops have mitres which pay homage to the catholic church. Anyway, an excellent tournament set. Other vendors have it as the ‘Euro Series’ but pricier.

I really love everything about this set. The texture and color are something very unique. I love that this set is measured perfectly for a 2.25 inch square size standard tournament board according to official FIDE rules. If I had to add anything it would be maybe slightly heavier pieces but they are weighted fine I just prefer extra heavy. I give this set a 5 out of 5. Simply amazing set.

I was quite amazed at the natural wood aesthetics and durable feel of the quality plastic this set is comprised and made of a beautiful wood grain pattern that compliments both the light and dark armies. I believe this set will become a best seller and an instant classic with hard core players and collector's alike. The only drawback I have is the set could be a bit heavier perhaps in the 40 ozs. total sett weight but nonetheless this is a very handsomely durable set. If you're on the fence about it have no regrets for it's timeless style, strength beauty and durability of this fine chess set. Bravo The Chess Store! With this set you have "Knocked it out of the Park!"
