Benefits of Playing Giant Chess

A large chess set can bring a classic game outdoors and give it a physical dimension that most regular-sized board games lack. Also, since the pieces are human-size, you can have more than two people participate. Everyone can take part in a single game, moving the pieces around the board and working together on strategy.

This type of chess set turns the game into a social event. If you choose the right size (perhaps three feet or so), you can get your children or younger family members to participate in a group game. Young players may be attracted because of the unusual size of the pieces and have a reason to learn chess (instead of spending time on video games). The pieces and board are portable, so you can take the game with you when you go on a picnic or camping or to the beach. The unusual size of the chess pieces will always draw attention and create a fun, social environment around you.

More than half our customers are businesses. You’ll find our giant chess set everywhere! Schools, resorts, campgrounds, residential communities, shopping malls, elderly care facilities, rental companies, cruise ships, municipal parks, libraries, corporations and homeowners love our chess sets.

Colors - Available in black and white for indoor and outdoor use and in red for use indoors.

Why some customers purchase Giant Chess Sets made from other materials

Some customers want to invest in a giant chess set that has more striking details.
Some customers want custom colors. Due to the anti-stain properties of the plastic chess sets and the properties of HDPE plastic, paint does not adhere to the plastic chess sets.

Why some customers purchase Giant Chess Sets made from other materials

Cost – Our fiberglass chess sets are more expensive than sets made from some other materials. But the beauty of these sets more than justifies the price.
Durability – The fine detail in this set is less durable than our plastic chess sets. Normal chess activity is no problem, but these pieces should not be dropped and definitely not thrown. Think about these chess sets as you would think about dishware. You expect your summer plastic dishware to be able to survive being dropped on your patio. If you choose to use you fine, detailed china outdoors, normal use is no problem, but you don’t expect it to survive being dropped.

Weight – these sets are made from solid teak and they are very solid heavyweight chess pieces.

Why some customers purchase Giant Chess Sets made from other materials

Cost – Our teak chess sets are more expensive than sets made from other materials. But the beauty of these sets more than justifies the price.

Giant Chess Set FAQ

What do I Need to Know Before Buying a Giant Chess Set?

Giant chess sets come in different sizes, and they are made from different materials. Before you buy, you should consider how you plan to use your chess set. The size and material should match your plans and should fit the people who will play the game. If you have children, for example, a set with 25 inch or three-foot chess pieces would be better than a set with six-foot pieces. If you plan to play outdoors, you will want a durable chess set.

What Types of Giant Chess Sets Can I Buy?

A giant chess set can come in different sizes, can be made from different materials, and can feature different designs. You might choose chess pieces made from wood, fiberglass, plastic, or other materials. You can even choose a novelty chess set with pieces that resemble teddy bears, tiki statues, or beer bottles. Because of the numerous options, you can find the exact type of chess set that you want and even customize it so that it matches your needs.

How Big can a Giant Chess Set be?

Giant chess sets are between 12 and 72 inches tall. The chess pieces are measured by the inch, so there are many options within this broad size range. For example, you can get a set that has pieces that average 25 inches, 36 inches, or 48 inches. There is no need to choose from a limited number of sizes. You will, however, need to make sure that the size of the squares on your board, which is sold separately, match the size of your chess pieces.

Are Giant Chess Sets Good for Outdoors?

Our chess sets will work outdoors or indoors. If you plan to use them outdoors in all types of conditions, you can choose an option with plastic, fiberglass, or wire-frame chess pieces. Even our hand-carved wood pieces are suitable for outdoor play. If you plan to transport the chess pieces to an outdoor event, you should be aware of the total measurement of the chess set. A foldable or rollable board can make transportation to outdoor venues easier.

What are the Chess Pieces Made of?

Our chess sets are made from a variety of materials, including hand-carved teak and birch wood. Other chess set options are made from plastic or fiberglass. We also offer acrylic and wire-frame sets, and novelty options such as a chess set made from stuffed animals, and one constructed out of beer bottles. You will want to match the material with your weather-resistance and weight needs and with the type of look that you want.

Does a Giant Chess Set Come with a Chess Board?

A giant chess set and chess board are sold separately. This allows you to customize your set even further because you can choose the board design and style that best fits your needs and your budget. You can choose from nylon, plastic, or wood boards. We have roll-up and foldable options that are ideal for those who want to transport their sets frequently. When choosing a board, you need to be certain that the size of the squares matches the size of your chess pieces.

Can I Customize my Giant Chess Set?

You can choose colors for some of our plastic and fiberglass sets. We also offer to perform laser engraving or print logos on the chess pieces. You can print a company logo or write text to remember a special event or personalize a gift. You can upload text for convenient laser engraving, and you can send us your logo design, and we will print it on each piece in your chess set. We also offer chess board templates so that you can create multiple boards with the look and colors that you want.

Do Giant Chess Sets Come with a Warranty?

We guarantee that you will love our premium chess sets. We have a transparent refund policy that covers our chess sets (except customized sets). If you return the products within the acceptable time frame, you’ll get a refund, minus any applicable shipping and restocking costs. We can help you organize the return shipping, and we will process your refund on the same day that we receive your return. We can also offer replacement pieces for an older chess set that only needs a new piece or two.

Can I Rent a Giant Chess Set?

If you want a chess set for a special event, you may consider renting one. We offer rentals for a period of two weeks for plastic chess sets of various sizes. The rental fee is all-inclusive, so you do not have to worry about an extra deposit or shipping fees. It’s all transparent, and you get the security deposit back when you return the chess set. This is a great option for a special event or to take a “test drive” to see if you would like to purchase a set for your home or business.
