I like wood pieces the best. I like simple pieces that are simple not skinny or fat or tall or short.
Are you asking a question? I like the Staunton design, especially the pieces offered by House of Staunton. They are just classically beautiful!

Interesting. I often find wood pieces to be too light. I usually prefer heavy plastic pieces.
I have 2 sets from House of Staunton. The wood sets are heavier, but only a few grams. I just love the look of the wood pieces. I do get more play out of the plastic tournament set though. It always stays in my car and is ready to go if I get a challenge from the guys at work.I like both, but the wood just has a classic natural beauty that the plastic doesn't deliver.
I like the Staunton set the best too.
I like Capablanca set and it's the best for me

The Civil War chess set by The Franklin Mint!
Just kidding...remember that advertised on late-night television during the 80's?
I was at a party the other week and while scavenging fer drinks i found a chess set and was excitedly drunk setting it up hoping to get a blitz game with someone there... but it was a mini set of soapstone... argh!! It was so delicate each time i tried to move the pieces i knocked something over and could hardly tell what piece was what..i gave up when it took me 5 mins just to set up all the pieces lol.. so i donnae like those kind of sets heh.
