My wife and I love Backgammon and so we decided to buy a travel size game so we can play on the beach or in the air while flying to vacation spots. This set is high quality, perfect size with magnetic pieces with felt on the bottoms so it is easy to move the pieces, yet they stay in place if the game gets bumped, you encounter turbulence on the plane, or a rolling deck on a sailing yacht. We bought this set after purchasing a smaller magnetic set that was just too small, didn't have a zipper close, and the pieces were too small to easily move along the board. This game is perfect for travel and you won't be disappointed.

...at least in terms of the color. True to the ad, this is a small, magnetic, travel backgammon board. Functionality is good although the zipper is pretty lightweight. However, the case IS NOT brown leather/vinyl as appears in the amazon.com advert. The case is basically a minty green "lizard" fabric; only its edges are wrapped in brown vinyl. Similarly, the inside playing surface is mint green not off-white as appears in the advert, and the dice cups are also the green lizard skin fabric, not brown as appear in the photo. I think it looks tacky, but my wife likes it so I guess we're keeping it.

I choose this product for it's design. The burgundy coloring and lizard looking appearance. I searched long and hard for a small attractive set. Excited to find this one in particular, I purchased it. To my extreme disappointment the product I received did not match the product's image as shown. It was Pewter lizard top and bottom with burgundy vinyl along the seams and pewter lizard dice cups. Not cute at all! (personal opinion)

Customer Service was great. They sent a replacement immediately, thinking an error in style selection had been made. I was let down a second time. My end result was having to return both sets.
