Sturdy wooden set and worth the price

This is exactly what it says it is. There isn’t a good description on the Amazon page, so here:1. The board is fairly sturdy. It’s a thick one, not just cheap like I guessed when looking at the box.2. All 4 tile racks are made of unfinished pine and feel like they need to be sanded once more.3. All 100 tiles were present in their correct amounts per letter. The tiles are made of smooth and finished wood.4. Mine came with a cloth tile bag and a game guide.This isn’t an expensive version of Scrabble, but if you don’t mind playing with wooden pieces instead of the old heavy plastic, it’s great. Definitely worth what you pay for it.

Classic in Name Only

I ordered this game to use at the monthly “Secret Headquarters Comics and Games for Everyone Off-Site Game Night” in Tallahassee. (Yeah, it’s a long name, but now Brian, our Genial Host, owes me one!) Anyway, I brought Scrabble, mainly because I did not know how to play any of the other games.When we opened it up, I think we were all expecting the look and feel of the “classic” Scrabble of our childhoods. You know, heavy, smooth finished tiles and tile racks and a game board that felt like it could take years of carting around and gaming.This game is sort of a lightweight version. Everything is there, but it’s just feels a bit small and less substantial . The tiles and racks have minimal finish on them, and the board is thinner.Now, as far as playing, this is a fine set. However, do not be expecting the original-feeling Scrabble game. I think if you want the truly “classic” set, you have to spend a little more.Why 4 Stars: The product lives up to its description (if not my nostalgic expectations). The price is right, and amazon delivered in a timely manner.Problem: This may be an isolated problem; however, one of the tile racks was missing. When I alerted amazon to this, as per its usual excellent customer service, it immediately arranged a replacement game to be sent to me. That’s another reason for 4 stars–I love good customer service.BTW, I learned to play two new games last Friday: Flux and Ticket to Ride Europe. And by “learned,” I mean that I lost my shirt. I will have to see if amazon carries these games, so I can catch up on some of this new-fangled stuff!UPDATE-24 hrs. later: The replacement Scrabble game has arrived, and all 4 tile racks are there!

Meh, it works.

These boards are pretty cheaply made these days, and this is no exception. The letters are really lightweight and move around a lot–this product could be improved a lot in terms of quality.

Keep your vocabulary strong little one

Scrabble is such a classic game, more people need to play this more often since words like “Bling”, “Bromance”, “Chillax” and “Crunk” are now in the official English Dictionary.

Always a classic board game to have.

Great scrabble package. all intact. I had expected the pieces to be real wood and the letter stands to be wood too, only they were plastic. Otherwise fine. Already played a game and lost with my significant other!

The only difference I found between this and my older …

The only difference I found between this and my older one is the tile holders are plastic instead of wood.

… a classic when I was a kid and I enjoyed playing it with my mom

Scrabble was always a classic when I was a kid and I enjoyed playing it with my mom. I was looking for games for our family game nights that we don’t already have that would be good for my 7 yo, he enjoys it and it is also educational at solving and spelling. He has to think a bit to figure out how to use other tiles to connect for words. He loves it.

Excellent value, close enough to best classic sets

I had a treasured old English Scrabble set (green box by Spears) with heavy smooth blocks & rounded edges, excellent thick quality board and plastic letter ledges I had been given by an old friend when I was a boy, and had kept in pristine condition. My ex kindly took it. So I researched, and was strongly considering buying the exact replacement, or the American version (red/burgundy). I elected to save my hard-earned dollars & buy the $14 model here. I couldn’t be happier. Board is reasonable quality; wood letters are sunken & embossed; plastic shelves are reasonable quality. What’s not to like at fourteen dollars over 60 bucks?
