Opinions on "Plastic Collector" series from House of Staunton
vs. one of their wood sets? For tournaments?




Plastic, all the way. I have the plastic HOS set and it's the best in
the world. My opponents look at me in this envious way when I bring in
this set. It's priceless to see. We're talking about the plastic set and
these to date (the one I have...hasn't had the bottoms fall out and no
rattling like other lesser expensive sets which are usually manufactured
in China. The HOS sets are made in the US...quality design) My only
regret is the king is only 4". I wish HOS would create bigger sets using
this model say 5" and 6" kings would be fabulous.
