I ordered one of these as a gift for my father and was pleasantly surprised by the high quality construction and how amazing the "Old World Map Design" looks in person. This set is a great value for the money - highly recommended.

I have tried to find a quality backgammon set locally but to no avail, after searching the web I came back to my old stand-by, Amazon.com and once again I found a quality product that was as advertised at a reasonable price. I woulld reccomend this product to anyone looking for a gameboard made to last, oh and it looks great too.

The product is just as pretty as the picture. It came on time just as everything from Amazon does.

It is larger than I had expected. The markings on the inside are sewn and have bent up. The outside corners could come loose; I installed metal corners to keep them from being beat up.

EVERYONE notices this on my coffee table now. And I always have a story to tell: Backgammon is the world's oldest game.

Very attractive case. Seems reasonably durable. Quality is good.

This backgammon set is quite durable and attractive. Looks much more expensive than it actually is.

the only complaint i had was that the bottom of one of the dice cups wasn't finished and i didn't realize until after i'd given it as a gift. :(

As all the other reviews promise, a gorgeous backgammon set. It was much better than I expected. I have a hard time believing online reviews so I always expect less. This purchase proved that belief to be invalid. We (my wife and I) looked all over the major shopping stores and small toy shops in Atlanta and found nothing to be of value in the backgammon world. Junk after Junk ranging from $12 to $40. The two items we thought might be Ok were worse than we expected once we took it out of the package. After returning the second game we decided to spring a few more dollars and try this. We are so pleased and did I mention how beautiful it is. The best part is I have something nice to look at as she is beating my socks off at our nightly backgammon tournament.

the Dice Cups were missing along with the instructions. After contacting the seller, a package quickly arrived with the missing items.

This set is an 11 out of 10!!! Not only is it eye candy, it's brain candy as well. Backgammon should come with a warning... "may be habit forming."

You know how it is when you play backgammon with the perfect set and the chips slide into place because the board is so smooth and the chips are a perfect fit? Well, this backgammon set is not it! The board is too big so you're constantly having to adjust the chips and line them up, and the stitching is so big the chips don't slide over the color bars smoothly. Its a shame because the set looks great, its just too big and not sized right for a smooth movement of the chips. I'd go with smaller dimensions if I were you.
