This is a fine Go board. Jun 25, 2006
I would definitely suggest this Go board to an Beginner, an Insei, or anywhere in between. This go board is made out of a nice wooden material, and the drawers are a nice addition. It's less common to bump into other stones on the board, which is a good thing. I wish the board came with glass stones, but it would just ruin this great price(Which I think is a steal, at just 39.99).

Overall, this board is a great for people wanting to start go,

those who need a hobby, great for experienced players, or perople who just want to have a good time.

Picture is misleading Nov 28, 2006 By Alan M. Hochberg "Alan"
Despite the fact that this item is described as a "set", and the picture shows stones on the board, this board comes with no stones. When my board arrived, the top of the board had rubbed against the cardboard box enough to partially wear away the grid on the board, at least to the point where the item is unsuitable as a gift.

Quality goban for the price. Excellent beginners board. Apr 15, 2009 By Halicon5
This is a decent little Go board, but it isn't anything special. The board is durably constructed, but the painted on lines may eventually fade over time if the board is used extensively. The trays on either side are adequate for holding the pieces (which were included with the board).

My only real complaint about this board is the pieces are functional but they are pretty cheap, but for the price I really shouldn't be complaining. It would have been nice if the trays had latches to keep them shut during transport.

The true Go aficionado will probably turn his/her nose down at this product (some Go boards are nothing short of being considered works of art), but if you are a casual player or are just starting the hobby this is an excellent buy to get you started.

Poor quality Dec 11, 2010 By Jeremy Hillier
I purchased this GO board with high hopes, but when I opened it I immediately decided I needed to return it.
I found that the picture of the board is misleading. It does not clearly show that the top of the board is a 1/8" applied top. Instead the pictures make the board look solid. Ok, that in itself was not a deal breaker.
The worst part was that a significant number of the lines on the board were smudged. Not just a few, but most. This factor alone made the board ugly, while a GO board needs to be beautiful and pleasing to the eye. Also, all four corners of the top were slightly damaged.
I was very disappointed.
The good thing is that Amazon makes the return process extremely easy!

Very Nice May 06, 2007 By Nick
For my first go board, I really like the way this is made, the chips stored in the drawers made for very easy access and for transportation (assuming you have something holding the drawers shut.) The board is made very well and so are the chips, with the exception of the few chips I found that were broken in half for whatever reason. (But none of my games ever go that long as to use all the chips so I don't mind.) Overall, this is a good product, especially for first time buyers.
