Great Bamboo Board good size Melamine stones
Received the GO set with the Bamboo board, Bamboo bowls and Melamine stones in a nice large box well packaged and undamaged. All the products I have received from Yellow Mountain have been exactly as described. In this Holiday shopping season receiving the ordered products on time and in good condition is wonderful. The set is as advertised.The Bamboo Go board is heavy for its 0.8 inch thickness. It carries a heft that is nice. This board will be used as a travel board when going to a GO Club. I do not mind the weight although there are lighter options for a travel board. The layered bamboo wood is well constructed without cracks or blemishes. Very nice indeed. Bamboo is a fairly hard wood and should hold up to rough club use. It comes with a very nice felt cover which a real plus.The bowels are nice and a very good value at this set price point. The Melamine stones are really a good size although a bit light for my taste but will serve very well as a travel companion with the board. The stones and bowels come with a super carry bag with the Yellow Mountain logo on the front. The Bowls come with velcro straps which is a nice touch.I highly recommend this board for someone that is more than just interested in GO. There are cheaper beginner sets but this one is a real keeper so keep that in mind if you want something that you can use for a long while and not be disappointed. I will revisit this review after a few months of travel and use.

Just as Expected
Photos and description is accurate. You get what you see. Came undamaged, but one of the stones in my order was a bit misshapen.

Beautiful
I'm very pleased with the quality, it feels special. I will warn that (as you can see from the pictures) it is many pieces of bamboo glued together which may present a problem if you have drastic changes in temperature and humidity throughout the year. If you don't treat the wood, it will change shape and expand, possibly cracking. The care instructions recommend using food grade mineral oil to keep it from drying out. I got the thicker one and it's HEAVY. Go with the thinner one if that's going to be a problem.

Fantastic set for the price
Was genuinely surprised at the quality of the board, bowls, and stones for this price. The additional niceties of the board cover, bowl straps and carrying case are very welcome as well and will help in keeping the set in great condition for some time to come. As a relative beginner to Go I was looking for a starter set that felt nice to play with at least and this more than fits the bill, definitely recommended.

Absolutely Beautiful Board and Accessories
I just received this game in the mail and I opened it immediately. I owe it to everyone to do a review and attach photos. My husband and I love this game. We been reading through the book that came with it. The bowls, the pieces and the board is a masterpiece. I have it in the center of our wood table for everyone to see. A must buy. I am so pleased with this purchase. Thank you for this phenomenal game of Go.

Beautiful Go set
Got this bamboo Go set from Yellow Mountain Imports - my first wooden board, having used small magnetic sets in the past. The board is large, thick (2 inches) and heavy. One side is a 19×19 board and the other side is 13x13. The playing surface is smooth and flawless. Though I like the thickness, I now think the 0.8 inches board may also be a good choice and is cheaper. The stones are biconvex melamine and are a joy placing on the board. They are the right size and weight and although there are more expensive stones out there, they have a classy look and a joy to behold. They are placed in smooth large bamboo bowls that look simple but elegant. The set comes with a small bag and a booklet explaining the rules of the game. Overall, this is such a beautiful set and a joy to play with. The packaging was secure and delivery to the Philippines took about 3 weeks. I would definitely recommend this Go set to enthusiasts out there. Thanks for a great piece of work Yellow Mountain Imports and to Amazon for a great job!

Y a plus qu'à..
Le Goban et ses accessoires dont un opuscule d'initiation sont arrivés en temps et heure, en parfait état, une réalisation de grande qualité.Yellow Mountain, l'importateur demandait des commentaires sur son envoi. J'ai adressé mes félicitations, assortis d'un reproche quant à la langue pratiquée sur le livret. L'Anglais n'est pas langue universelle , non ?J'aurais volontiers payé + cher pour recevoir cette brochure dans ma langue. Yellow Mountain vendrait certainement + en France si sa brochure était accessible dans notre langue.
