Air+ Electronic Chess Set with Full Wooden Board, Extra Queens, LEDs, AI Adaptive Game and App with Computer Chess Board for Ages 8 and Up, 2 Players

Got this as a birthday gift for my son and he absolutely loves it! He’s been playing nonstop for days. Super smooth connection to all the online platforms, especially chess.com, which works perfectly. The different AI levels are great for beginners like him—challenging but not overwhelming. And the full wooden design feels premium and looks amazing at home. Totally worth it, highly recommend! 👍

What a shock and disappointment!- pieces feel cheap and are so light they topple over ! Also a few had the felt peeling off on the bottom — was this a used set ? The weight of the pieces was not acceptable - The colors were also off and too light - Bottom line — poor quality — possibly used -

I rarely write reviews but this thing is so cool and oddly there aren’t many reviews yet. The technology is amazing and perfectly implemented. The wooden board and pieces are beautiful. It easily connects to your chess.com and/or lichess accounts for online live games via their app and bluetooth. Playing over the board is a lot of fun. Battery life is great - perhaps 20 hours of play on a full charge. You can use it as a regular board and no one would know the difference. Surely any chess fan would appreciate how cool it is. Very impressed. This review is for the Air + version. I also bought their carrying bag which holds the board and pieces nicely. Small enough to travel with. Buy one!

I would say that this is a very specialized chess board which looks and feels like a standard wooden chess set (Staunton type) and can convert manual moves by the players into electronic format and either store the moves for retrieval or, using a third party app, project the moves onto a screen. I am not a tournament player, just barely a casual player and my interest in this was to see what a chessboard at this price level would feel like to play. Unfortunately, whatever the electronic wizardry involved, the board and pieces are quite ordinary in design and feel. The seller could have provided a more exciting tactile experience with better weighted and finished pieces. And although it comes in a heavy cardboard box with nice graphics, a real case with good storage to protect the pieces would have been appreciated. The electronics part of this is accurate and works as advertised. The included app is OK but buggy. I assume this would be interesting to use at a chess club, where moves could be recorded automatically and shared in real time electronically on the various apps which work with this. Depending upon the app, parameters can be set and time tracked just as it would be in a tournament. The board can also communicate using bluetooth directly with your phone and report to one of the various apps which work with this. For chess enthusiasts, especially those who prefer a traditional wooden board while playing, there is no real equivalent that I am aware of at this price. There is no traditional manual provided--which would have been very helpful, in my opinion. But the seller provides links to online tutorials which are sufficient to understand the options provided.

It arrived with perfect packaging and the app worked really well. No complaints and we enjoy playing with it!!!

I bought it direct from the company. It is a nice board though the one I received has two squares that are marred by color irregularities in the wood which could be distracting when playing. The size of the board is just right, and it looks nice. It is quite thin and doesn't look like an electronic chessboard except for the controls on the side, which are subtle. The piece sizes are good, but they are a bit light and will slide off the board easily if the board is moved. Weighted pieces would have been better. The Android app is clunky with no easy navigation arrows, which would be ok if swiping was responsive, but it isn't. They really need to do better. There is no bag included for the pieces, so you will definitely need your own. It has the qualities that I was looking for, but for me there is an unacceptable flaw. The LEDs are very bright; there is no way to adjust them, and Chessnut has no plans address the issue either in a firmware update or in future Air+ versions. So, it's going back. Overall, it is very close but not close enough.

Amazing quality! The wood finish is stunning, smooth, and feels premium. Totally worth every penny!

Don’t waste your time and energy. I have been eyeing chessnut for a while now. Literally over a year before finally buying one. It does not work! If I could add my images and video I would but I’m limited to just one. The led is tweaking randomly on squares that does not have pieces on them. My product also looked like it was tampered with and not new. On the app, it’s connects but it doesn’t register moves when moving on the board….. Chessnut customer service sucks. Amazon also tries to have you deal with them instead of Amazon taking the responsibility to help. The customer service for Amazon was like, “reach out to them and if they don’t get back to you in a couple days reach out and talk with us again.” I really don’t want to come off as an entitle jerk but this is a $400 product that is a BRICK. Just buy a $40 board set.

plastic pieces not wooden cant evon connect it to apps sending it back very disappointed

La scacchiera è abbastanza ben fatta e mi permette di giocare su con chess.com con una scacchiera fisica. Se la connessione bluetooth con il device che fa andare la app dedicata sarebbe perfetta. Il servizio clienti è davvero molto efficiente. Per chi ama gli scacchi on line ma vuole vivere un'esperienza di scacchi vera è una cosa davvero immancabile.

Schönes smartes Holzschachbrett. Funktioniert nur optimal zusammen mit einem Smartphone und der dazugehörigen App. Online Partien über Lichess und chess.com sind möglich.

Très bon matériel pour débuter puis évoluer jusqu’à un bon niveau. Possibilité de jouer contre l'ordinateur en local ou en ligne sur deux des principales plateformes. Attention toutefois à ceux qui pourraient penser que le plateau pourrait être totalement autonome. Ce n'est pas le cas car il faut tout de même télécharger une application qui sera connectée en Bluetooth à l'échiquier. Vous pourrez tout de même jouer en autonome sans vous servir de l'appli. Cette dernière pourra, entre autres choses, vous servir à revoir votre partie pour apprendre de vos erreurs.

Precio descarado para lo que en realidad es. He visto ajedreces por menos de 20 euros que traen las mismas piezas y tablero, literalmente las mismas, de la misma fábrica. Aqui lo que pagas son los sensores (baratos) y su integración con app que lo unico útil que hace es conectarse a chess.com (no funciona desde app) y lichess. Estoy pensando en devolverlo porque me siento robado. Es un abuso por falta de competencia. Si no me crees pregunta a la AI cuanto cuesta realmente hacerlo. Tampoco digo que lo claven pero dista mucho del precio al cliente. Lo compré en oferta por 329, ahora vale 410 para mas inri.
