I bought this chess set as a birthday gift, and it's been great so far. It's small enough to travel with, but still a decent sized board. I also like that when the set is closed, it looks like a book and can blend into a bookcase for storage. The only issue is that the pieces don't fit well into their 'slots' inside the board. If we try too hard, the felt starts to rip so we just pile all the pieces in wherever we can.

Nice set but board looks like formica
Large enough to get a sense of the pieces, small enough to take on trips.

Easily recognizable pieces
A place to keep them so they don't get lost
can travel with it
board a little smaller than I would have like, but big enough to use.
Service and delivery comments:
Arrived on day predicted (even though it was saturday-Fed Ex and I used the free shipping). I was suprised.
Was in good condition, as near as I could tell.
It was a gift so I didn't actually use it myself. I did open it and look at it.

Comments about CHH Open Book Chess Set - Oak:
Our grandnephew is just beginning to play chess and we were looking for a chess set for his 12th birthday. The Open Book Chess Set looked good on-line and -- hoping that it would be as nice as it looked -- and after calling with a few questions, we decided we would order it. It turned out to be everything we hoped it would be. The price was right, the quality is excellent, the personal service was great, and delivery was quick and on-time.

Comments about CHH Open Book Chess Set - Oak:
I wanted an easily stored chess set at a really good price, and I am very pleased with this one. I have started to play chess with my grandson on video chat. I bought him a bigger set, but I wanted something more convenient for myself.
I like the workmanship and the look. The price was right. Perfect.
