Lexibook, Harry Potter, Chess Set, Magnetic and Foldable Chess Board, 32 pieces, Family Game, CGM300HP, Red

Bought this recently, as my son learned chess, but wanted some other options, in case he gets bored or something that he can play with his younger sister. It's magnetic, not very strong on the pieces, but they do hold well. Size is decent and the chess can be folded with the pieces stored insight, but the other game sheets need to be stored somewhere flat, so it's a bit inconvenient if you want to ditch the box and keep it folded. Maybe of the sheets themselves were foldable as well, would have been better. Overall, great value for money and happy kids (for now).

Very good toy lots of different functions

Overall a great product that is worth the sale price. Can be a little finicky so better for older kids or be prepared to supervise a few games until they get the hang of it.The pieces are too big and can be prone to falling over, especially the knights, but they look very cool and frankly, even my 7 year old quickly learned to maneuver them around with any issues.

I bought the game for £44 and I'm well happy with it's strength. Ideal Xmas present for a child who's a beginner or an advanced adult. Pieces are a bit light but recognisable.

so disappointed with this set - could have got cheaper, but went with a recognised brand. arrived and then spent the first 30 mins putting the magnets back on and removing the sticky stuff that was on the pieces as a result of the magnets falling off, I am losing my sight (hence purchased one with sound and lights) and the instructions are written in a font that I am not sure anyone could read. Plus - given it has a port for power I am really surprised it doesnt come with a power supply ( yess this is mentioned on the site) and the pieces are in brown envelopes, so where do you store them once opened?!!! not exactly user friendly

As a computer chess game this is excellent, but badly let down by the lightweight pieces that are easily knocked over.I bought a magnetic chess set ( Snocyo) and used the chess men from this to replace the pieces.I had hoped the magnetic bottoms would work on the Lexibook, but unfortunately they didn’t.If you’re buying the Lexibook, be prepared to replace the pieces.Such a shame the Lexibook didn’t come with magnetic pieces.

Nine-year old delighted with this and plays wizard chess with her friends on it all the time. Board and pieces excellent size and design. Tremendous value for money.

Easy to transport, my grandson took it on vacation
