Scrabble Luxury Edition Board Game

If there was a 10 star option, I would select it. I love this board. I collect high quality wood board games and this one is truly outstanding! There are magnets in the board and base that allow you to turn the face of the board but then lock in once it’s turned. I am critical of expensive things. I believe if you are going to charge a premium fee, you need to deliver a premium product and this game board delivers! I cannot think of a single thing the could improve. I love it. My kids love it. I leave it out because it is so beautiful to look at and functional to play with. It’s awesome!

I've been meaning to get a nice Scrabble set for quite some time. I've played on the older "vanilla" Scrabble boards. They do the job, but sometimes I just want something nicer. A conversation piece, if you will. When I received this Scrabble game in the mail, I was excited. I spoke with some family and we decided to put it to use that very same night. I must say, it was every bit as good as I'd hoped it would be. The Luxury faux-ivory tiles sound great and are easy to shuffle in the bag. They look good on the beautiful wooden board. I've had no issues with the golden grid on top of the board, either. The entire set looks very classy and elegant. I've had no durability issues, either. I'm able to play with confidence, as the entire set appears to be solid and well-made. I hate playing board games where I'm afraid if I place a piece too hard it will break or crack something. This game is not flimsy like that at all. The turning board is a nice touch, as well. If you are playing with 3 or 4 people, each person can see the board upright during their turn. It makes the game of Scrabble even more fun and relaxing. All in all, I'm more than pleased with this purchase. Thanks to this edition, I no longer need to worry about upgrading to a "better" Scrabble set in the future.

As avid Scrabble players, we evaluated several "luxury" sets, but found all but this one wanting. It is well made, well designed, and a joy to use. We replaced the tile bag with one we had (the bag that comes with the set is too shallow), but other than that, the set is fine. No, it's not very portable, and it is expensive, but for players who play a lot, this set is the way to go. The glass set, which we had for a while, has tiles whose letters rub off over time, and the other luxury sets, while copies of this one, are poorly constructed of cheap wood. If you can afford this set, and you play Scrabble more than occasionally, buy it.

We wanted a Scrabble board that would be nice enough that we could leave out in the living room permanently for our guests to play on if they wished. This one was a good compromise versus a $600 handmade one from Etsy. It looks very nice, though upon closer inspection, it's made of typical Chinese factory type of composite materials. So, all in all, a little pricey for what you get, but still worth it.

This is a really nice Scrabble set. The wood is a more uniform (and lighter) color than shown in the product listing but very well done. The top rotates so each player can have the board oriented properly when it's their turn. The tiles are held in place with a discreet grid system to you can't easily trash a game in progress. And a nice drawer stores all of the pieces so nothing gets lost. Even the little holders for your tiles have a sharp looking brash finish. My wife is a Scrabble addict and this was her birthday present. It looks nice enough that we leave it out on the coffee table as a conversation piece. It's quite a step up from our old cardboard box version of the game held together with masking tape. Highly recommended as a gift if you know someone who really likes the game.

Expand your vocabulary and enjoy the effort. Classic look and appeal - original concept from my father's professor at University of Chattanooga

It's a really nice board overall. I do wish the lazy susan part was not so magnetic - it locks it well in position but just doesn't glide into position as smoothly as I think it should.. it's just engineered interestingly - uses magnets to keep it locked at each 90 degree turn.. It's not a smooth glide which is what i expected.. It isfunctional and the tiles do stay in place fine. there is no glue or shoddy worksmanship overall. One thing i do definitely dislike are the tiles. they are advertised as "faux ivory" which means plastic apparently. they are slippery and the faux leather bag is cheap feeling and stiff.. I think it'll break in and get softer with use - i'll update if so.. I think a nice velvet string bag with wood tiles would really be a LOT nicer.. I am looking for a replacement now just in case.. or if the manufacturer would like to send a replacement I wouldn't refuse it. ! lol. I gave it 4 stars on the off-chance the seller sees it and wants to exchange or can sell me for reasonable a nice set of wood tiles with a velvety bag.. come on ws games send me tiles that are as nice as the board.. otherwise.. I'd say get the less expensive one if money is an issue. I can't imagine i got another $100 in value for this set vs the premium edition one but i didn't but the less expensive one first to directly compare.

After 11 years of playing nightly play on the Onyx edition board, this game is a significant upgrade and pleasure to play. The thing I like the best about this edition is the tiles that are faux ivory. They beat the pants off of the wooden letters that peel and fade. With our last Scrabble game we had to replace the tiles multiple times because they did not hold up. The storage drawer is nice also to keep everything you need out of site. The rotating board is removable for cleaning. The faux letter bag is also better than the typical fabric bag that shows dust and lint. This game is more like a piece of fine furniture. We are very happy with it and look forward to many years of game play.

Luxury board

Very happy and a real collectors piece, everything about thus is just fab

As a couple, we invested in this as a hopeful family heirloom. We wanted something sturdy and well made. This was a worth wild investment! I (the wife) have personally hauled this sucker to lounges to play with some friends over drinks, as well as at home with the family for bonding. My 8 year old loves it for the new words she's learning while she plays. We love that each square has its own 4 walls to keep the pieces in place. The score keeping book, 4 gold letter holders and pleather bag for the marble-like letters, are excellent quality. Would highly recommend

It serves quite nicely as either a display piece or to play a game with guests. The scrabble board is very well built and durable, also charming to look at! The best part is the grooves for the letters and the turn table! It's heavy, but that's when you know it's not cheaply made. Overall very impressed!

Scrabble Luxury Board Game: purchased as a Chtistmas present, and it is very good. The quality is exceptional and it is used almosr daily.
