The House of Staunton Deluxe Chess Bag - by US Chess Federation

Purchased the deluxe chess bag by the U.S. Chess Federation to hold my "Best Chess Set Ever" brand chess set. The traveling bag is a perfect fit for my quality chess set.

Nice chess bag. It's now home to my quadruple weighted chess set with the 4" king and extra queen. Plenty of room in the bag for your chessmen, roll up boards, clock, notation pads, etc. Good construction. Canvas-like material with nylon zippers w/metal pulls. I am pleased with it. Update: I've added a couple of photos of the bag's interior.

This one is a winner for me. Has enough room for a vinyl board, all the pieces, a clock (with spare batteries), a couple of pens, and a notation book. And I still managed to fit 2 water bottles in there.

Keep in mind I'm probably being picky here about the zippers ; it's not a deal breaker. I'm just concerned these zippers are too small to last over time. BUT JUST make sure you don't rush when you close these zippers and you should be fine. BTW i'm talking about the main outside zippers. They can keep using the same zippers inside to keep the price down but I'm willing to pay a little more for better outside zippers. Seems like no one else out there makes this bag with better zippers.I like this green one I bought. I wanted to get the dark blue one but when you click the dark blue square you get a bag with a lighter shade of blue and so I thought the Green one looks better anyway. BTW WHO would buy any of these bags with polka dots ? lolYou can clearly see how awesome this bag is and what others mentioned already. I just wanted to add it's a really nice touch that they added a pocket with a window the size of business card for your name and other info. It's also a really nice touch that they have 2 pen holders. Every compartment is roomy and in the middle pocket you could fit a small book on top of your chess clock for added protection. I actually carry 2 BOARDS ; my main sized board that everyone uses and also a board 3/4 the size of my main board with smaller pieces just so my friends can play a separate game and don't have to wait around to play the winner. I always keep this in my trunk so I'm always ready to play wherever I'm at.Overall this is an awesome bag at an awesome price and clearly a "must-have" for anyone who plays most of their chess away from home. I only wish for better zippers (just the main one) but being that the price is outstanding, it's almost a non-issue. I haven't had any problems yet and don't expect problems for me or anyone as long as you don't rush when closing these zippers. I imagine these are easy to fix anyway if any problem arises. BTW I almost forgot to mention the STRAPS are great because not only can you carry by hand but you can either carry the bag across your hip or along the back of your shoulder comfortably which is a nice "plus" I wasn't expecting.

Nice spacious compartments for pieces. I have a set with two extra queens and a 3.75-inch king. Also perfect size for my ChessClock.

Very sturdy! I love it!

Great for traveling. Fits everything I need into one convenient place

It is good. If you're going to import this into a country which bleeds you dry with taxes, such as Brazil, it may not be as good as you'd expect since you're paying three or four times the original value. However, for the original price it would be a steal.
