For the price, this set is terrible. Wood siding holding pieces in place after they are removed from play fell apart before we even played - not nailed in properly. It appears to be warped as well. Felt seems like it might peel off at the slightest provocation, and plastic outer & triangular point markers don't even look like leatherette, let alone leather (not that I expected leather, but imitation leather should at least try to look & feel the part, not imitate plastic)! I wouldn't mind so much if the price had been around $25 but the quality was definitely not on par with the $50 price tag I paid. It's really no better than the inexpensive travel sets made, only it's bigger, cheaply made & a lot more expensive.

Backgammon is a great game so I will give this 2 stars, because at least we can play the game on the board. I regret not shopping around more. I thought I had, but apparently not well enough!

This was a disappointing purchase - totally unsuitable as a christmas gift as quality very cheap - returned it.

This backgammon set looks very nice, and made a wonderful and attractive gift for a relative. Everyone enjoys playing (or watching others play) during family get-togethers. I recommend this set.

I wanted to get a sturdy, high quality board. I thought that for around $40 I could do that. But this board does feel a little flimsy. You have to spend more if you want a high quality board.

Overall it's a good value for what it is. Some minor flaws in the construction of the board where the chips are stored and with a little glue it's as good as new.

My wife and I have been married for almost 38 years. When we were first married we received a backgammon game for one of our wedding presents. After leaning the rules, we could not stop playing. It has some luck value to the game, however there is also strategy involved. Grab this game. It is fun and a good way to know where your mate is! It is like we have stepped back in time.
