Super Scrabble Deluxe Edition
This new Deluxe Scrabble is w/o a doubt the greatest Scrabble game ever made. It's twice the size, and twice the fun for those of us who are obsessed with the game. The only thing I wished they would have done, is put it on a rotating spinner. But my mother and her Scrabble buddy who play Scrabble until 5-6 am in the morning, have already created their own rotation, by using a Lazy Suzy. Between all of my family members, we probably have at least 10 old Scrabble boards, but when my mom and her Scrabble buddy bought the deluxe version and we played on it,I immediately purchased 2 new Deluxe boards (one for myself, and my dad and his family), and since that time, no one wants to play with the old boards. If you are a Scrabble lover,I strongly suggest that you get this new deluxe version! You won't be disappointed.
Customer Review: Super Scrabble is SUPER
Summary: 4 Stars
Our family played a lot of Scrabble on vacation this summer, but found that our games were too short and frustrating on the standard (100 tile) board. This one is MUCH better and allows for longer games/higher scores. I do, however, have a few complaints: 1) The board is set on ball bearings. I don't find it too be much easier to rotate this board than the standard board...and it takes more space, so it's actually more difficult. 2) I love the fact that the tiles stay in place on the board, but they are actually difficult to put away once the game is over. If the board is folded in half with the tiles on it, the board comes apart (it doesn't break....it can be put back together, but it's a pain). So, we actually end up picking off the tiles individually, which takes a lot of time. I bought the Official Scrabble Dictionary when I bought this game and it stores in the box perfectly. That is our rule, if the word isn't in the OSD, it cannot be used.Customer Review: Better than regular scrabble

My wife and I haven't stopped playing since we got it a month ago.
This large plastic gameboard has raised edges framing each square on the board that help keep the pieces in place.
It rotates by using tiny ballbearings encased throughout the bottom of the board. It works best on a large, flat, solid surface. It is a bit awkward rotating this large board especially if you have anything else around it. We play the game on a table all by itself and keep score, drinks, etc... on a side table.
It is roughly TWICE the size and has TWICE as may letters as the standard scrabble game so more and longer words can be formed. It takes much longer to complete a game too. We are often leaving an "unfinished" game up overnight and continue it the next day and have even left "Your Turn" note on the board with the last word spelled.
We are very pleased with "Super Deluxe Scrabble"... A++

Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I play scrabble regularly. We started using Super Scrabble instead of the standard game a couple of years ago and reallly love it. The only problem was that since the game is twice the size of the original scrabble, it took us more than one sitting to finish a game. The standard flat board was easily bumped and often our games were ruined by someone bumping the board. I even contacted the Scrabble people to see if I could get a deluxe board (with the rails) 2 years ago and was told that it was not being made...
and NOW here it is. no more ruined games from someone bumping the board!
We love the Deluxe game.
Only (minor) problem is the seam where the board folds does not always lie flat so the letters in that column can move around.
all in all, a wonderful addition to the scrabble game.
Customer Review: Great fun

For anyone who likes regular Scrabble, this is a great gift. The 4x squares are a fun challenge to get to or keep others from being able to use! The bigger board and more tiles do make this a longer game to finish, but I don't know that we'll ever go back to the regular size game again! The ridges to hold the tiles in place are really nice, especially if you have to let the game sit a while, no worry about skewed words if the board gets bumped. The only negative thing I'd say isn't anything major, but when we finish a game with the old board we'd pick it up, fold it and slide all the tiles off into the box/bag. You can't do that with this...the tiles don't slide, and when you fold the board the tiles fall through the middle crack, so you have to more or less take the tiles off individually when putting the game away.
