This review is from: 15" Burlwood Backgammon (Toy)

I was VERY disappointed with this backgammon board! This is the first time that I have been disappointed with a purchase from Amazon. First, the latches are VERY difficult to open, and the stable portion of the latch (that doesn't lift up), so SO very sharp that I've cut fingers on both of my hands, as have three other people, before I could warn them that the latches were very sharp. The pieces are irregular, don't have any kind of weight to speak of, and they slide around so much that you don't always know where your pieces were before they got hit with the dice and took a hockey puck slide to the other side! The board itself is very pretty, and looks great, but the dice boxes are already showing wear, and only adults play with this board, and we put the boxes back into the packing cushioning they were shipped in. This may be considered a "toy", however, the price is not of "toy" category for me. I will get another board, however, I'll make sure that I see it up close and personal first. Very disappointed with it.
