Product Information
Full details
The LEXIBOOK Chessman Giant Pro (CGM1000) is a versatile magnetic chess set designed for players who need a reliable, portable, and stable gaming experience during travel or casual home play. Its primary benefit is the integrated magnetic surface that prevents pieces from shifting during transit or play, ensuring your game remains intact even on moving surfaces; however, players should note that the brown aesthetic is a fixed design feature and may not suit all décor preferences.

FAQs
Are the magnetic pieces strong enough for upside-down play?
The magnets are designed for stability on flat, upright surfaces and are not intended for holding pieces upside down.
Does this set come with a storage bag for the pieces?
The set is designed primarily for portability through its folding board; please check the original packaging contents to see if a specific storage pouch was included in your bundle.
Can children use this set?
Yes, it is suitable for players of all ages, though it contains small parts that may be a choking hazard for very young children.
Is the board made of wood?
The set uses durable modern materials designed to mimic a traditional look while providing the magnetic performance required for travel.
Can I replace a lost piece?
As this is a complete set, individual replacement pieces may not be available through the manufacturer directly; we recommend keeping pieces stored safely when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Pieces are not sticking to the board
Check the underside of the piece to ensure the magnet is properly seated. If the magnet has detached, a small amount of non-corrosive adhesive can secure it.
Board surface has smudges
Use a microfiber cloth lightly dampened with water to gently wipe the surface. Do not submerge the board in water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the set is straightforward: simply unfold the board on a flat surface and arrange the pieces on their respective starting squares. Because the board is magnetic, ensure that the magnetic bases of the pieces remain clean to maintain optimal attraction to the board. To care for your set, wipe the board with a soft, dry cloth after each session to prevent dust buildup. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as they may scratch the board surface or damage the finish. When not in use, ensure the pieces are stored in a dedicated pouch or container, as the set does not feature built-in interior storage for individual pieces.
