Hey @chessroboto

Chessconnect supports both the Certabo and the Tabutronic (via USB or BLE) so you don't actually need to use the producer app. The Certabo is a wooden chessboard (uses RFID tags), the most stylish one, the Tabutronic Sentio uses magnetic pieces and the Tabutronic Cerno uses RFID tags. The Cerno is kind of like a cheaper Certabo board. Ciao

Thanks

They are nice, I just don't like the light line that goes around the perimeter of the squares. I would prefer it to be flush to the border (darker) area.

Hi everyone, I did some research and saw that Certabo seems normally have a sec delay to transmit the move. Could any user share your experience on the Certabo board response time for register a move? Thank you!

Can't say about Certabo but no problem here regarding the Tabutronic Sentio (that uses magnetic sensors) and Chessconnect. For compensation, just add some extra time to your clock and you're good to go. Ciao wink

Where is Certabo chess board made?
Kromok2

Bologna (Bononia, in Roman/Latin language) from the Emilia-Romagna region (Northern Italy), known for its delicious food and rich cuisine (for this reason it's called "the Fat City"): tagliatelle with ragù, tortellini, ravioli, lasagne, often served in broth, cured pork meats and the like, no spaghetti. This is the Inventhio factory:

Certabo means "I will fight" in Roman/Latin language. Ciao wink

If it is made in Italy I can trust it because Italy is a very advanced country when it comes to electric and electronic products. Needless to say, no country in the world can compete with Italy when it comes to car technology and culinary art and also of course fashion and art and as for natural beauty and holiday destination you do not need to tell us anything as we all know Italy is simply number one in the world with the best wine to boot!

That's a strange comment from someone called SpanishStallion!

Why is it strange? Britons’ number one holiday destination is Italy and Spain, those who can afford go to Italy and those who do not come to Spain! If you also wish to leave the clouds and crowds behind for a while book your holiday now!

Hi everyone! After a long time of consideration, I have decided to try Certabo. Before purchasing, I was quite nervous and worried about the quality or the responsiveness of the board. Although I searched a lot on the internet, I did not find much information. Finally, I have received it a few days ago, and I am glad to say that I did not regret the purchase. My son and I are having a good time with the board, and we all agreed that the board is beautiful and of high quality.
