I don't particularly like it. The pieces are too small for me and it's hard to differentiate different pieces. The bishop and the pawn are too similar. Any takers?
@Kaliuzhkin Which case version do you have? Cardboard, plastic, or the wood? I'm interested in the wood one (Post#16) if that's the one you have.

The version I have is a plastic box, color black. Sorry, no pictures yet, but it looks like ##2, 5 and 6.
Yes, the setup posted by Pawnerai has the bishops and knights in the wrong positions. There's nothing wrong with the chess set, but whoever set it up should have known better.
Depending on the source, it's estimated about 20% of people in the U.S. know the basic moves of chess pieces. The percentage drops dramatically when it's people who know the correct piece placement, especially the queen. Dropping again for correct board orientation. I'm guessing the percentage is in the single digits.
