Toys and Games Reviews of Pressman Giant Garden Chess Set
Customer Review: Zugzwang !
Summary: 4 Stars
This large chess set was the centerpiece for our theatrical production. The pieces are distinctly designed and "read" well from the set. After the show, our actors autographed the sturdy green felt base of individual pieces and donated the set to our school auction. We searched the internet and found the best price at Amazon, with free shipping!Customer Review: Chess Game
Summary: 5 Stars
The chess game is fun, educational and arrived on time. Who could ask for more?Customer Review: Kids Absolutely Love This Chess Set....
Summary: 4 Stars
This chess set is wonderful, it has inspired at least two children who have been to our home to learn how to play chess.
My own children love playing with this set. In addition to playing chess, sometimes they recreate the Fritz and Chesster games they've played and printed from the computer, sometimes they make up puzzles for each other "Move one piece and put my king into check", sometimes they haul the chess pieces around the house to do double duty for some other imaginative play venture.
I do wish there was some way to weight the pieces, they are hollow plastic with felt bottoms. I've debated opening them up to put sand inside of them, but haven't done so yet. Anyway, I'm not sure how this game would hold up outside on a windy day, but regardless, we have been very pleased with this chess set.
