It is a beautiful set.
While I was very happy with the quick shipping time and overall quality of the board, I was very disappointed to see the grid patte. Was 1/4” off from being centered on the board. Unfortunately very noticeable while sitting in front of the board.
Beautiful Go set with nice, full size stones with bowls.
This is a really nice Go set and the quality is excellent. Everything came packaged nicely too. Keep in mind that you may need to pick this up from the post office since the package is a little big. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase!
The yunzi stones are great, what professional Chinese Go players use. The board is as good as bamboo gets, looks attractive and feels solid. Best value for a beginner set and then if you get better in the future just upgrade to a wood board.
