Toys and Games Reviews of Super Scrabble Deluxe Edition
Customer Review: Design, Craftmanship, & Challenge of Game
Summary: 2 Stars
The design and craftmanship of this board is very poor. They use inexpensive plastic hinges on each end which causes "warping" of the thin plastic used. If they would 'spring' for two additional plastic hinges between each end it would greatly help in reducing the warping of the board. As it is I am expecting my third shipment in hopes of finally receiving "one" board that isn't warped and I can lay my letters flat. Upon picking up the board one has to be extremely careful as it tends to break apart at the hinges.
Overall as a game it's terrific having more spaces and tiles to play with as it makes for a much more interesting and challenging game.
Customer Review: Very disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
For the amount of money paid for this game, we were very disappointed in how cheaply it was made. It is basically two pieces of plastic with cardboard sandwiched between them. The plastic is warped so much that the tile letters do not lay flat. The board folds in the middle and the two pieces do not even meet correctly, with one side raised higher than the other. As a result, all tiles placed on squares that run down the middle of the board, do not lay flat. There are several warped areas that lift up throughout the board that will pop if you press down on it, making the tiles pop up in the air.
The concept is great. The product is not.
Customer Review: Super Scrabble Deluxe
Summary: 4 Stars
Scrabble is a great game and the super scrabble deluxe edition is no exception. Raised grid - must have. Larger board, more tiles - must have. The turntable is a sorry excuse compared to the real turntables. This game has several ball bearing type rollers that allows for turning the table. It works but compared to the real turntable model, pretty sorry. I can get by with that but the really sorry part is that the table folds in half via 2 small plastic hinges and the two halves of the board don't line up which makes for an uneven surface for those tiles to lay. The bottom line is that I'll use it and the real problem is quality control in CHINA!Customer Review: beware the board
Summary: 4 Stars
WE love Scrabble. The Deluxe version is terrific, the one downside is the board. The seam in the middle lets the tiles wobble that are in the "seam line" and the little plastic hinges broke the second time we used the board. A very disappointing design flaw! Being creative, I have managed to effect a repair that has made the board sturdier, to bad the design team couldn't have done the same. I also made a platform for the game to sit on as the ballberrings can and will scratch whatever surface the game is placed on, another design flaw. Games can last longer and are more challenging with the extra space and letters. We truly enjoy it.Customer Review: Great concept, mechanically weak
Summary: 4 Stars
Really enjoyed having twice the letters and space. The black letters on the natural wood tiles are easier for me to read than the gold on maroon tiles. The additional bonus squares boost the high score possibilities. The hinges on the board are weak. The roller bearings allow the board to swivel on smooth surfaces and catch on uneven surfaces. I also miss the having the letter count on the tile holder. With careful use, Super Scrabble Deluxe Edition is a great educational game. Math, spelling, logic and memory skills are constantly used. I recommend the Scrabble dictionary and the Webster's dictionary to develop skills and knowledge.
