ChessLight Electronic Chess Game, LCG3000 | Touch-sensitive board, 64 difficulty levels, Light and sound effects

Perfect for my wife. We love Harry Potter, She wants to learn Chess. What could be better?

Just got this one from Amazon. It's just like the travel sets from Radio Shack and the Kasparov endorsed ones from the late 80's and 90's. Very cheap plastic compared to them though. Screw based battery cover could be a problem if used a lot. Also, it doesn't have a cover to keep the spare pieces in place even though there are two slots at the top edge for one. This is a problem because it initially is hard to open, it snaps twice to open fully, given you a chance to make your spare pieces airborne. Altogether, not bad for a travel set and worth it at the current price.

I purchased the Lexibook Chessman® FX Electronic Chess Game twice, and both experiences were disappointing. The first unit arrived looking used, setup was difficult, and the moves were not recognized. After struggling to get it working, I ended up returning it and requesting a replacement. Unfortunately, the second unit was no better. It also appeared used; the instructions were unclear and hard to follow, and once again, the moves were not recognized. We were never able to get a game started. Based on both attempts, I would strongly advise against purchasing this item.

Yay, I got it to work! At first I could do zero games with it, even after reading the manual. The word reset is never mentioned in the manual, but is in small lettering on the back of the unit next to a pin-size hole. After pushing in the spring reset with a sewing needle when the unit was off, it was some improved. After pushing the reset when the unit was on, it worked fine on the easy level I tried. I used a separate chess board for all the pieces and used the electric board to press the start square and finish square of each of my moves and of each of the computer's moves.

4 stars because the magnetic closure on the board doesn’t function properly so you can’t truly close it as a case. Otherwise a great starter set. Pieces are plastic with one being broke upon unboxing (but I glued it back together where an arm fell off the knight). This is not a high quality set but a good set for beginners and a fun set if you’re a HP fan

Got this for my grandsons birthday and my older grandson also liked it they play chess a lot and love Harry Potter so they enjoy playing the game.Seems like the set is of good quality boys are 9 and 11.

The Lexibook brand seemed to be a very nice one to get a chess board from. This chess board functions great! I especially like the fact that it has red lights under each square. All the functions of this board are amazing! However, the pieces are small and feel very cheap. I looked over a review saying this, but I didn't believe it. Be warned! The pieces also slide very easily, so unless you're playing this on a table, they won't stay still. I had gotten it with the intention of being able to place it on my lap and play on a couch but the pieces slide too easily. The instruction manual was very clear, and I was able to understand most of the major functions of the board. The tray that holds the pieces was a very nice feature, however, it feels like really cheap plastic and the tray can give you trouble. It came out a couple times. I eventually returned this item for a magnetic one. Overall, Likes: Function, modes, lights, and intelligence. Dislikes: Small, cheap, non-magnetic pieces and flimsy tray.

I love having this chess board when I want the tactile feel of pieces when playing a computer. There are lots of difficult levels, different modes, and clever features like showing where all of the pieces should be positioned on the board (if you happen to hit the board and mix up the pieces). The only thing that would make it better is if the pieces had more weight. They work fine, but they are very light. The good thing is that you can use different pieces since the board works by pressure and not sensing the pieces themselves. It's an intelligently and elegantly designed board. You'll love it.

I have found that this chess game makes illegal moves. I have made the board play against itself, this photo shows it suggesting that the King moves 3 spaces. I'm not happy about buying this item. What do you want to do with it regarding a replacement or refund.

Super szachy , polecam zdecydowanie.

Excelente calidad … está hermoso y buen tamaño

Looks used. The screw at the battery compartment was halfway screwed and rusty. Scratches on the board itself. But seems to be working.
