different than i was used to but i love it
my only goban and stones i had access to before getting these were a hinged wooden board and glass stones bought in the 80s by my parents in japan. the new stones on my new board initially felt a lot more slippery but the problem seems to have mostly gone away over time. i recommend. places where go sets at this price are sold for quality as decent as this are hard to find.
United States United StatesQuality Board
Great board for the price, no defects or damage. There were a couple stones with defects, but nothing major. It was a better percentage of flawless stones than I got when I purchased the same kind of stones stones last year.
United StatesGood product
I like the weight of the stones and have gotten compliments on the board. I enjoy having the double sided board, which allows me to teach friends on the 9x9 and then play games on the 13x13.
United StatesCheap stone containers
Never played Go before. The look and feel of the board and stones is great! Although, the plastic containers for the stones feel cheap. Not a big deal overall.
