The pieces weigh 4 and a half pounds, quadruple+ rating. The king itself weighs 1/4 POUND.

Playing speed chess with this set is like an aerobic weight training session. You'll get a good upper body workout and break a sweat.

Chess/General forum, whatever. There's nothing nicer than picking up a chess piece that has some REAL heft to it.
Litlle flyweight plastic chess pieces are annoying.

If you want a decent workout with a chess set then you really need to buy a BIG set.

This set weighs in at a massive 74lbs. By the time you fill the pieces with water/sand then you will get a rteal aerobic workout.

The King is a mere 25 inches high.

500 bucks for a chess set, they better have that board set up right in the image!

I always find it surprising when someone actually sets the board up right for a photo... many people have no clue about chess, but want to sell a chess board.

I have a chess box at home (glass set) and there are 3 images all set up wrong, and wrong in a different way.

White on the left, king on wrong color, and another with the queen and king on the same column.

Dur@!
