It's perfect for playing outdoors with flat corners and a rubber bottom that grips to tables and playing surfaces. BEAUTIFULLY WASHABLE: This beautiful mouse pad chess mat comes in vibrant blue and white. We also recommend weight pieces as the extra cushion and thickness of the board will extend the life of the weights. To clean the board, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth. You can also place the board upside down on the top rack of an empty dishwasher and run a wash cycle. Do not use high heat or a dryer. Allow to air dry.

The widely used alphanumeric notation is included on the side of the board to record the player's moves. Chess board mouse pads have quickly become popular among chess enthusiasts and are replacing thicker chess boards because they have a softer surface, rather than a vinyl or silicone mat, which ensures a flat, non-slip bottom so the board can't slide around. The board slides around quickly, this type of board allows chess players to play chess, blitz chess, and bullet chess more quickly while saving more time than normal tournament play while players are working and at leisure. Time is short, and such chess moves are sent flying chess pieces by sliding the board. The weighted chess board surface pad also extends the life of the pad. The board can be rolled up and fits inside the chess bag, or you can fold the paper and stash it away in a back pack without any creases.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eNumber of Players: ‎2\u003cbr\u003eBattery Required: ‎No\u003cbr\u003eBatteries Included: ‎No\u003cbr\u003ePrimary Material: ‎Silicone\u003cbr\u003eGender: ‎Unisex\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer Recommended Age: ‎12+\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer Reference: ‎05-8221\u003cbr\u003eProduct Dimensions: ‎50.8 x 50.8 x 0.64 cm; 280 g","brand":"Mega Shop Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":49161398845760,"sku":"B01NB2A155","price":81.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0853\/2584\/0704\/files\/818sSvq0RTL._AC_US1200.jpg?v=1719148193","url":"https:\/\/megashopjapan.com\/products\/we-games-blue-mouse-pad-chess-board-20-made-in-the-usa","provider":"Mega Shop Japan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
