4.0 out of 5 stars It's Checkers
Standard Checkers set with board and pieces that has been known by kids and families for years. Comes in a box that is not as sturdy as it needs to be for longevity, but with proper care, the board and pieces should last. Checkers is a great game for two to play.

1.0 out of 5 stars very cheap quality, pooly made, made in China
The playing board is really flimsy, the checkers don't all stack properly. This is another product made by the same country that blessed us with lead, asbestos, and date-rape-drug poisoned toys. The Amazon Marketplace seller I bought this through was fine, but the product quality is low end China junk.

The cheapest produced board game I have ever seen. Only buy if you are taken it on a one way short trip that ends up on a waste facility. It will then be at home.

This product is cheap trash. I purchased it as a gift, and as a gift giver, I was very embarrased.

Amazon should sample and review everything they sell to see if it is worth risking their reputation.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the cost, September 21, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This checkers set was the biggest disappointment of anything I have ever ordered from Amazon. The checker board was warped and extremely flimsy. Checker pieces were also very light weight and cheap looking. The set is certainly not worth the cost. I would say that it might be worth $2-$3.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this at ANY price!, January 9, 2012

Yea, I agree with the other reviews...don't buy this. We purchased this at a small gift shop while on vacation. Everything was packaged and wrapped well (it didn't appear to be a returned product). However, we were dismayed to find that there was a shortage of red pieces, with 2 of them broken in half. The other strange thing is that there were 4 extra black pieces. Even if there were the right number of pieces and non broken, I still wouldn't recommend this set as it is extremely poor quality. As others have stated, the checkers don't stack well and the board is warped and doesn't lay flat.

Thankfully, my 5 year old didn't care about all of this and still had fun learning to play (we had to be a bit creative due to the missing pieces), but we will be buying a better set and chalking this up to a learning experience.

Poorest quality I have even seen for a board game! Not even suitable for Dollar Store! Comes in flimsy box that will not last either! Amazon should not allow sellers to stock items of this quality!

2.0 out of 5 stars Cheep Checkers, January 27, 2010
This review is from: Pressman Toy Checkers Board Games (Toy)
You get what you pay for. When you pay less for a product from china, than what it cost's to ship? don't expect to much in quality.
This product was a gift to my child from a tite $ friend? and wasn't embarassed by it's poor quality?
This product was made with child slave labor? How else could it be so cheep? In America we can pay more and get better quality.
Stop being so tite, by looking for that GREAT STEAL that never realy comes around in the end. You get what you pay for from Amazon.com
