This is just a good basic no frills Checkers game. Essentially your standard thick folding cardboard game board and plastic checkers pieces. It was a little pricier than I would have liked for what it is (and I am pretty sure the exact same thing was significantly cheaper at Walmart for example) but we opted to pay a little more to avoid in person shopping as much as possible this past holiday season. My husband just wanted a basic inexpensive board to start teaching our daughter how to play checkers and this was perfect.
For this price it is hard to find nice checkers. With these ones we were lucky. The weight isn't too light as in some other cheap products. Kids enjoying it.
This board game is very cheaply made and the discs are of very light plastic but I knew this when I purchased the game.The quality is reflected in the price.
5.0 out of 5 starsI love playing checkers but my grandson found it boring!! Lol

I bought my grandson this checkers game so I could teach him how to play. At first it was fun for him and was able to hold his attention but after a while he simply told me, grandma this game is boring, well even though I love checkers apparently to my grandson nothing beats monopoly so , I still recommend this game it a total classic even if my little cub didn’t think so. It just wasn’t his cup of tea! Great game,all pieces needed where available, good price and even has instructions for new players

It's a checkers board. The size is right for the board. The checkers are on the dinky side. They don't stack well.
Pros: Price, Very low cost option. I figured for the price I wouldn't expect much and I was right.
Cons: The board is very thin but usable. Checkers are thin and small plastic pieces with a molded crown on one side. I would NOT recommend this to be near small children. I knew what I was buying so I am not docking any any stars. It is as advertised.

The board is rectangle, like the box, just open out like the older games. The box is less durable than the board. The checkers are plastic with a crown on top. The set is OK.
