Be suitably well made and attractive to look at if it is a gift for someone else<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\nWhat are you going to use it for?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
What is the purpose of your magnetic chess set? Do you want it to take on the road with you, on holiday, on camping trips, or just something to handily carry to somewhere to play?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps, you want a set that you can move from one place to another around the house, without having to pack it away every time, with conveniently magnetic chess pieces that will stay in place as you move it from one location to another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To be honest, that’s a good reason in my house. I’m not the tidiest and if I can leave it set up, and grab it when the mood takes and start playing straight away, that suits me just fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But it is also great to have a folding board and storable chess pieces, if I want to take it elsewhere, maybe out in the yard to set up and play at the BBQ!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Price, Quality & Value<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
One of the most important aspects to consider is how much you want to pay for the magnetic chessboard and your budget restrictions or abilities. Chess sets can come in at quite a range of prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is possible to pick up a budget magnetic chess set for under $10, the pocket type travel chess sets fall into this category, and as you can see on this page with the last 2 options, prices can rise to just under $100<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A travel chess set with a magnetic board and chessmen might seem to be a little luxurious when spending over $50, but as with most things in life, you do get what you pay for, in most cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sometimes, however, things are somewhat overpriced which is why, I can personally vouch for each and every set mentioned in this review as I have purchased each, along with many others, which either did not make the shortlist or were, as mentioned, poor value for the price paid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The complete list of travel chess sets and magnetic sets purchased was 15 both online and in-store, from which this list of 5 was derived. Hopefully, by shortlisting from the selection, you might choose one of the recommended options, and save yourself from picking up one of the dummies that are out there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, if you do buy through one of the links on this site, I may earn a small commission<\/strong>, which goes a long way to helping me purchase and try more products for the reviews you find on this site. And I thank you<\/p>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
