@@ChessUSee ahh jeez, i hope i win🙏
Best of luck my friend!
I just ordered my wooden chess and its ny first time im excited for my chess journey
How exciting! Which set did you get?
Was the Walnut style board also used in 2013, 2014, 2016, and 2018?
As far as I can tell, it seems this is the style of chess pieces that have been used for the World Chess Championships since 2013. The board here is slightly different because it has hexagons of inlaid wood to show what color pieces should go on each side of the board.
Hope this helps!
'must have been stained' if its ebonized boxwood, if its ebony it doesn't need staining, surely
I am not familiar with the painting process for the pieces so I just took a guess in the video. I'm sure World Chess would have more information on the manufacturing process. You can contact them anytime here: shop@worldchess.com
Of course it doesn't matter whether you play with black at the "top" or the "bottom" as displayed so long as you DON'T play "left" to "right".
True, but it is good to know that the board shows which side is supposed to be white and black. Playing chess sideways is playable but very weird for someone who learned to play with the right orientation!
@@ChessUSeeExcept that if you play "side to side" the queens & kings would be on the wrong sides & the black square & white square bishops would be on the wrong sides too.
@@stevecleaver8933 That's true! It completely changes up the openings and opening strategy for sure! I have played way too many games in this backwards style and it was pretty wacky. I think it would be a fun idea to play chess "backward" as a chess variant. Perhaps a petition might add it to Chess.com?
This set looks amazing bro, i want it😭😍
Make sure you're subscribed and are getting all notifications by hitting the bell icon so you don't miss out on the next big giveaway that is to be announced with World Chess very soon! I'm very excited to share what I've got in the works!
Hello. is it an electronic board? if yes, what are the connection methods?
Hello,
This board is not an electronic one, but aside from that is identical to the World Chess Championship sets used by Magnus Carlsen in the defense of his World Champion title.
This board with the internal electronics is going for around $1,500 while this non-electronic version is going for around $550.
Thanks for watching and let me know if you have any other questions!
I want to buy this set so bad but I never have anyone to play with IRL. Still want it just for me though . . .
I hope you do find some local chess players in your area! If not, perhaps you can introduce your friends and family to the game and arrange to meet for chess games once a week! This is how I started playing chess, and how I started a local chess club. If you ever have any questions about starting a chess club I'd be happy to help out!
Me too...
What is the board called? Like what kind of board that doesnt fold and doesnt have a line in the middle of it
This board is called the World Chess Championship Set (Walnut Edition). Here's a link to the exact item: bit.ly/chessusee10
This board is a solid wood board with wooden pieces. There are no electronics in this set and it does not fold in half. This is a replica of the board (excluding internal electronics) that has been used for Magnus Carlsen's defenses of his World Chess Champion titles.
Use the code "chessusee10" to get 10% off any order with World Chess.
Hope this helps!

Hi, do you know why the official world chess premium set is way more expensive than some other ones?
Hi Lili,
Looking at the World Chess website, it appears that the primary differences between the World Chess Championship Set (Walnut Edition that is featured in this video) and the World Chess Premium Set is that the Premium Set uses more expensive (I assume) woods such as Ebony, Maple, and Acacia for the board and Boxwood for the pieces. The World Chess Championship Set (Walnut Edition) uses only Maple for the board and Boxwood for the pieces.
Additionally it seems that, while not photographed, the Premium Set also comes with a Bespoke storage box which is not included with the Championship Set.
Hope this helps!
Its just because of marketing. Its not any different than cheaper ones
@@lehmankulli69It depends what is meant by "other ones." I don't know the price for a WCC premium markup but mathematically, I don't expect it to be much. Back when I played chess 15 years ago, a House of Staunton chess set in the quality and size of a tournament level was over $200 (they had more expensive sets than tournament level ones because those ones used rarer woods, I think some may have been available in materials like ivory or mammoth tusk that would be outlawed by now). The boards (from a different manufacturer back then) were around $60.
They should be double the prices now as both have only gotten more expensive because there is no way to manufacturer to that level of quality in those woods via shortcuts. (For reference, looking at the HoS Zagreb '59 I bought for $80 in the mid 2000's, I see they still manufacture and sell the same version… for $170. The Zagreb was a budget-friendly set back then because it's made with cheaper woods and the knight is much simpler to carve., it's also a big smaller than more recent tournament sets) Given that, I think the markup for the WCC branding is rounding error territory.
There are, of course, cheaper sets than House of Staunton, but the quality difference is noticeable instantly if it is a wooden set. I'm willing to bet these are House of Staunton too, there is no way to get around it, even back then nobody could approach their quality without cutting corners (always evident in the carving on the knight and also the wood types used, even amongst their own sets). If you just want to play, back then you can get perfectly good weighted plastic pieces done from molds. I'd recommend the same today. It's not the same, but quality-wise and practically speaking, it's the same. Of course, you won't get the appreciation in value that any HoS set (and a matching board) will give you.
*so the desk doesn't scratch up your board
Haha, I like it!
I'm surprised that this chess set did not include a timer
I don't think that World Chess sells chess clocks at this time, but there are a lot of great ones that you can get online for fairly low prices.
This is my favorite (and affordable, $40) chess timer: amzn.to/3TI6ioB
Since it has no moving parts it is a lot more durable that timers with a moving lever.
Chess pieces look the same as the original ones but the board looks like they used laminate flooring...
So I got a set myself and started reading the reviews of dhl(I didn't get to choose) and I'm starting to get concerned. How was the shipping process for you? Because apparently they haven't had a great review in two years..
Hi Joshua,
Congrats on your purchase, I trust you got 10% off your purchase?
In my case, my board (and the giveaway board) were shipped via FedEx and they came from Northampton, England. It was shipped on Monday and arrived mid-afternoon on Friday of the same week. It did get held at customs for a bit before continuing its trip from Tennessee to Los Angeles. My shipment thankfully arrived without damage to the chess sets.
Do you know where your set is being shipped from? If you don't mind, when did you place the order?
Honestly, I didn't check the reviews of FedEx who shipped my board prior to the shipment, and I also didn't get to choose who shipped the boards.
If you want, feel free to contact World Chess with any questions or concerns you may have about your order. They were very helpful to me when I had questions about my shipment as well.
I am happy to help in any way that I can.
I did get the 10 percent off! Thank you btw! And i ordered it on friday the 21st of October 2022. I was supposedly supposed to get it tonight (October 26th) now they're telling me I'll get it tomorrow. I also got it delivered from England. Also i did email shop.worldchess and told them my concerns, they replied and told me that it's too late to change the shipping company. So I'm hoping ill have it tomorrow.
I'm just glad to help somebody save some cash! I hope you get the set tomorrow at least. I'd be happy to hear what you think about your set when you unbox it. Enjoy it!
Thank you also congratulations on almost hitting 10.000 subs!
Thank you! #roadto10k is almost complete!
the knight looks like doberman
You look like a young Will Wheaton.
Wil Wheaton! I guess you've got a point! Perhaps in 30 years we'll be able to see if I still look like him
It keeps getting more expensive. Interesting how they are able to keep prices up. It means rich people are buying.

Thanks for the visit! It really is a beautiful chess set!
2 inch squares?? are very small. Pieces look hemmed in.
My 4” Soviet set from 90’s is on 2.37” board and is perfect.
2 inch are NOT fit for WC play.
My opinion.
Is this set still up for the drawing?
Oh nvm I read the instructions you will pick the winner within 7 days of reaching 10 k subs

very expensive for this quality.
This is the company that produces the chess sets for the World Chess Championship cycles and they produce top of the line sets that are approved by FIDE and co-designed by Magnus Carlsen and Vladimir Kramnik.
I am very happy with the quality of the set and the professionalism of World Chess as a whole.
Exactly which set is this?
This is the World Chess Championship Set in Walnut, and is sold by World Chess. I've got a link in the description of the video to the product listing page. Enjoy!
Excellent quality chess set, but...these pieces seem a bit too large for that board. Still, nice though.
Chess sets are certainly a matter of opinion, but I personally really like the size of the pieces compared to the square size of this chess set. World Chess does supply many other sizes of chess pieces as well so you could choose to get the board but not the pieces seen in this video.
Thanks for watching!
I like it
I would love to win that.
What do you mean
They do have cheaper versions of this board, but the price reflects the size of the board. There is a Home Edition set that is 20% smaller than this set and accordingly is priced lower. Be sure to check the size of the board before you purchase!

Is it worth buying?
In my experience with electronic chess boards (I have the Square Off Pro and ChessNut Air) I would recommend the ChessNut Air over the Square Off board. I find that it plays moves more smoothly, has far fewer errors in understanding the moves. Both boards can connect to Chess.com and Lichess and both are around the same price range ($200) last I checked. The ChessNut Air is significantly smaller in size than the Square Off Pro but it I still find it easy to use.
I think I'll make a comparison video between these two sets in the future as that would probably help.
Hope this helps! If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to send them my way.
People who watched in high or advanced Quilarty
All of my unboxing videos are filmed in high 4K quality to allow you to see the finer details of these chess pieces!
The chess pieces are made in India and the boards too ig, but if an Indian buys it he/she has to pay almost $500 for the same thing which was actually made in India which is pretty weird.
The best hand carved pieces in the world have been made in India for at least the last two decades. Back then it was House of Staunton, which I wouldn't be surprised if this set is theirs also (OEM). I think there is a RUclips video of the manufacture of their pieces, the labor intensity and generational skill needed is too difficult to replicate anywhere else. When you see what sort of work goes into it, you can see why they can't be had for a lower price, even in India.
15 years ago, the best boards were actually made in the US. Boards can be made anywhere since the biggest cost is the wood and the parts for it do not need to be hand carved like the pieces do.

shame the black pieces are black in stead of wooden color
I personally prefer the dark stain used on the pieces instead of dark wood. I think it makes the pieces look just a little nicer in contrast to the white wood they chose for the white pieces. But then again, that's just a personal preference! Im pretty sure World Chess offers different styles of chess pieces and boards if you want something different.
Thanks for watching!

DO NOT BUY IT!!!
I recently purchased this product and received it this week, shipped from England. I strongly advise against making this purchase.
The board I received was damaged in the corner and the overall condition gave the impression of being second-hand. It was a far away from the beautiful appearance depicted in the website's videos and art photos.
Moreover, the board bag shown in the 1:08 of this video was missing from my package. I am currently in contact with customer service to arrange an exchange.
All in all, this has been a highly disappointing experience with this product.
PS, the promote code of 10% discount works anyway.
Hi Patric,
Thanks for sharing your experience with purchasing a World Chess set! I'm glad to hear your honest feedback and I hope World Chess is able to resolve the issue quickly! Did the box arrive damaged with your chess set? Sometimes the shipping carrier can drop parcels and damage the products inside during shipping.
From what I have heard the canvas board bag comes only with the World Chess Championship set in Walnut Edition. Is this the board you purchased? If so I would highly recommend you email the company and explain your situation with the damaged board and the missing canvas board bag. In my experience they have been very flexible and quick to correct any issues with shipping or replacing sets with manufacturing defects.
I'd be very interested to hear about how everything goes with this order as this information is very helpful to others who are thinking about buying from World Chess. If you have any other information about your order I would love to hear it so that I can better assist other customers of World Chess in the future.
I'm glad to hear that the discount code is working!
Thank you!
@@ChessUSee Thanks for your reply. I have got a replaced board after communication with CS. I bought Premium Chess Set, so you're right, there is no bag :(

The workmanship is abysmal
The workmanship on my board is very nice for a handmade set. In my experience, if you get a board or pieces that are not to your satisfaction, they are very willing to help resolve the issue. Hope everything works out for you!
Well I don’t like this set and Knights are ugly just my opinion.
It's a poor piece of design, as you might expect from non-specialist architectural 'designers'. Mostly plagiarized from existing designs, with the world's ugliest knight thrown in. Save your money!
You can buy astoundingly good copies of classic Jaques Staunton pieces for way less.
