Customer Reviews
Gift for adult grandson, he loved it.
Product came on time, and quality was very good for the price. Some small flecks of paint were the only blemish
I received my items in a timely manner, as best as you can expect in these times, and am absolutely in love with my board. I try to play as often as I can and bring it on extended outings.
I purchased this set to replace a previous bamboo board that had severely warped (I don't live in a hermetically sealed environment, it seems). The board is of good quality, quite elegant for a table board, free of obvious defects and well inscribed. It is as dark in color as it appears in the product photos and video (I would have preferred a more traditional color, but couldn't find a non-bamboo board of good quality with the Chinese grid - hint). The bowls are attractive and functional; the carrying bag is also functional, if a bit too roomy for the bowls; the stones are fine if you'll settle for plastic. Packaging was outstanding and the set arrived without transportation damage. Inclusion of a felt coverlet for the board would have been a welcome addition. In all, a very good value.
