great for taking to a friend's house or learning to play without buying an expensive set
this is the perfect travel go board, the 11'' size feels right for portability, and doesn't feel cramped to play on. i also have YMI's roll-up magnetic board, which is nice but sometimes annoying due to the curved storage.the stones are small but well shaped for their size and very usable, they suit the board nicely

perfect starting set
My kids are enjoying learning the game. I think this is a quality starting set and good value for the price.

Good game - a couple small challenges
Nice little board for travel… I’d give it 5 stars except for two reasons. First - the plastic containers that hold the “stones” don’t seal very well and the lids to secure them are prone to coming off while traveling sometimes. The second - the stones are small (hence a travel game) but my large fingers have a little trouble picking them up.

GO - they got it right.
Nice convenient design. Fast delivery. Stores stones in a playable format. Magnetized, too!

Smaller Than Expected But Otherwise Fine
As a "Traveling Portable" game set I knew I was going to be getting something significantly smaller than a full sized board. Since this was to be my first set, and I still wasn't sure I wanted to shell out the money for a full sized set, I thought this would be a good start (it wasn't, but more on that later.)First off, all the pieces advertised were included. I did expect for there to be a small instructional packet like the ones that come with the full sized sets YMI sells, but this was only a minor disappointment and the magnetic set didn't say it would be included so that was only my wishful thinking.The pkg arrived promptly, and was well padded. More so than I was expecting for something made of plastic, metal and magnets. The box the set comes in is actually very nice and I've decided to keep it as a carrying case, rather than have the board knock around in my backpack.The board holds closed pretty well and the bowls fit inside neatly with very little wiggle room. The stones all fit in the bowls nicely as well. The lines on the board are not completely centered (I notice that tengen is rather more on one side of the board if you assume that the split is centered).Some of the magnets on the stones aren't centered but this doesn't affect the game at all. The stones are smooth and have a nice feel to them but they are undeniably plastic and not particularly heavy. Most importantly though, they are small.The one thing stopping this from being a four star review has got to be the size of the stones. Again, I was expecting them to be somewhat undersized, this being a travel board, but reviews of OTHER travel boards (including a different board from YMI I believe) lead me to believe that the difference wouldn't be significant enough to affect game play. And I was wrong.The product info does include the size of the stones but if you're like me, and didn't give that quite enough attention, you'll probably fail to notice that 5mm x 13mm is actually MUCH smaller than the 7mm x 20mm or 8mm x 21mm that seems to be typical of the full sized sets.As a beginner, the stone size is far from ideal. If you've been playing go for a while and just want to be able to have a quick game at a moments notice this probably won't affect you as much and I do recommend this set for those purposes. Beginners should probably just settle for playing online and convincing their families that that a $100+ board game makes for perfectly acceptable Christmas/birthday gifts.

Maravilloso para llevar
No se jugar GO pero voy a aprender, las instrucciones son un poco confusas. lo bueno que veo es la facilidad para llevar. El juego se cierra sin necesidad de una caja aparte y se puede almacenar dentro las fichas que vienen divididas en su contenedor separadas por color.
