YMI Japanese Riichi Mahjong Set, White & Yellow Tiles

This is my first Mahjong set, so I've nothing to compare to, but the tiles themselves are very nice. They seem well made, and are consistent with pretty much no defects - if I was to nitpick, one of my 3-sou tiles is a little underpainted, but not a huge issue. They were smaller than I expected, not being familiar with standard sizing, and having only seen the game played with larger tiles, but I think I might like them this way. The tile designs look great, with a two-tone black and maroon colour scheme (with a brighter red for the red doras), although I think I'd have preferred if they included some dark green on the relevant soh and dragon tiles. I love the shade of yellow used on the backs. The other accessories are not of the same standard as the tiles, but are adequate. The case is attractive enough, if not the sturdiest. The trays are cheap moulded plastic, and the one for the dice and points sticks was cracked, but still functional. The dice are irregularly sized and shaped, which would be catastrophic for some games, but Mahjong can get away with it, I think. The points sticks are, again, cheap plastic, with inconsistent paint work, and some sprues still attached - might take an emery board to them to tidy them up a bit. There are exactly enough points sticks for a 30,000 point game. This is the standard for Europe, as I learned from the included rulebook issued by the European Mahjong Association, which I assume YMI only put in the boxes sold in this region, but was a nice addition. Overall, for the price, I'd definitely recommend the set. The quality of the tiles, which are the most important factor, more than make up for the shortcomings elsewhere.

Excellent product

This product is wonderful, honestly for only 65 quid this is a really high end mahjong set, the tiles are just the right size for playing (ive yet to use them for playing) and all the whole set packs away neatly into the provided case. I was a bit worried to begin with with the case only using snap shut clips but they have proved me wrong they hold together really well and walking around with them makes it easier. Would buy another set if I was to get an automatic table but for pleasure play this set is wonderful. The only issue I had found but not an issue with the company is when using the tiles the dragon tiles can be confusing as the Red Dragon is Yellow, the Green Dragon is White and the White Dragon is blank. But apart from that I can say this product is fantastic and well crafted.

Excellent Set. The Tiles or of a great quality, weight and Colour. I also like the slightly bigger size. This a well worth the Price. The Only reason I didn't give 5* was because the Betting sticks and Die that came with it was not so great. Which kind of let down the overall set. But I sent feedback to the seller which was received and responded to in a quick and positive fashion. Regardless this is my 2nd set from YMI, and they are now my preferred mahjong set supplier. Very happy with the set.

Love it! Good quality tiles. We enjoy a family game at the weekend and this is perfect!

One of plastic trays (middle one with dice and score sticks) was damaged on arrival, probably due to weight of tiles and improper handling/packaging, not a big deal, which quickly got resolved after getting in touch with seller (received appriopriate partial refund and kept the set). Aside from that, no real issues. Slightly shame bamboos and green dragon aren't painted green.

Always interesting to teach my English friends to play this game. By the way they’re all addicted to it now :D

Seems very good quality and nicely packaged.

Muy pesado, buenas calidad y mucho entretenimiento.

It is a nice pieces

Great quality, true market price. Can always recommend yellow mountain for mahjong tiles!

Awesome set, have enjoyed many games so far. I'd recommend that anyone interested get the large tiles though, as the default size is a little small.

Si sente che è di qualità, top
