Editorial Review

Make your move when you're on the go with this checkers set from the Fundex line of elegantly diminutive travel games. The 6-by-6-inch leatherette case unzips and becomes an open book, revealing a richly colored hardwood pegboard and a pouch containing silver- and gold-hued checkers pegs. A sheet of rules is included, as is a selection of tiny rubber rings used to denote a kinged piece. Even if you travel economy class, your play can look first class with the Portfolio Games Checkers set. --Tony Mason

My family and I were going on a road trip, and I have to give my brother SOMETHING to do before he loses his mind. I ordered the checkers case, and it is great! Good leather which is durable and will most likely hold up for a long time, and the board is made of wood. The pieces are metal, and insert perfectly into the holes and do not fall out. This is an excellent item, and I recommend it for any trip!
Pros:
1) Excellent quality
2) Durable
3) When you travel the pieces will stay in place

4) Great, educational game
Cons:
1) Gets lost easily lol

2.0 out of 5 stars Sideways board, September 15, 2002

Believe it or not, this is the second travel chess board I bought witl a sideways orientation. The makers of these boards apparently don't really play the game (white on right). Don't worry, I bought them at the same time, so I didn't repeat my mistake. Anyway, I would advise you look closely at the picture before buying this item. At least you can bend back the end under the board, but it's still pretty awkward for one of the players.
