Hello,

which one is your favorite Plastic chess set? 

Do you use it on a wooden chessboard?

Show your pics :)

 

Thank you

I love my plastic dubrovnik. Solid pieces with wide bases making them super stable without needing weights. They've become my go to. I don't use them on a wooden board myself, but a freind does with her set.

My favorite, by far, are the Ultimate chess pieces from American Chess Equipment. Picked them up years ago, and they've held up very well over the past 10-15 years. Great weighting, great feel to the pieces, and they look good.

Nice Dubrovnik chess set... where is that available?

Here are a couple of mine. 

This set is big and heavy, the board is a magnificent wood folding board with storage for each piece inside:

This one is a nice wide base, triple weighted set. I use this the most (I have two of them). Use it on a wood board.

Here are the two setup on a table, sorry for the pic quality.

Shipping is pricey to the US, but I don't regret the buy one bit. If you're interested email GM Drazic.
