Thank you for your interest in the Lord of the Rings Chess Set. The board is crafted in cold cast porcelain with metal attachments and plexi-glass. Detailed Middle-earth map is sculpted beneath playing surface. It is quite heavy. Shipping weight for board and pieces is about 24lbs.

The base is a poly-resin, so it is pretty heavy and substantial. Watch out for the rings on the curved part of the base, if you grab them and lift there, the plastic ring will come off, and you must glue it back. The game board is a clear acrylic plastic and not glass, most likely to reduce the weight. Still, it is not too heavy, but you cannot place it on a night stand or such, the weight is mentioned in the description.

I am not positive but I think it was thick card board. It was like the Melissa & Doug puzzles. My grandchildren loved it. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

About 45 pounds. It is very heavy but also super strong. The pedalboard base is not that much. Once you put gear on it it will feel 50+ but the upside is that it has wheels!

The material seems the same as a regular scrabble or monopoly board, only it is heavier and very durable. It folds in half and does not have a turntable.

I don't have it in our home ... was for my grandkids. But, as I recall, it was fairly heavy ,, I would say at least 3lbs. But ... a very good purchase i quality ... and kids still play with it after a year.

I can't say the exact weight but it is very light, I would say ounces. The packaging was light as well. It is a snap (plastic) gravedigger. It is sturdy as my six year old rolls it across the floor routinely. The box it came in was just standard cardboard that most model cars come in. We bought it for our sons sixth birthday so it was a few months ago, can't remember anything about it being heavy prior to putting it together. I will say it was difficult for my child to put together, his dad did most of the work, and to seperate it to show the inside is difficult, an adult usually does it at our house. Mainly we think it will in snap if the kids try to force it. With that said though, it is a cherished grave digger toy at our home and as stated earlier, it has held up to play. Hope that helps.

It's made out of a very thick plastic, actually better than regular card tables. The extra inches perfect for games. Top wraps around the edges, very smooth. Very happy with purchase of this table. Have recommended to friends.

The base is metal with a wood cover. The whole thing seems flimsy though, and possibly dangerous. I could not recommend these chairs.

We just played this today! Was given to my brother in law for Christmas and he is very happy with it. The board is slicker than a wooden one but for the price and/or if you need one you can transport, it is great! Hope that helps.

It's particle board, but it looks beautiful and is sturdy. I move a lot and can't even imagine how heavy it would be otherwise.

Shipping weight is listed at 19.8 pounds. The board itself probably weighs ~16 pounds. It's pretty heavy, but that's a good thing, because it's very stable, doesn't tip easily, even with the added weight of the iron. Very happy with mine.

As far as I can tell just the base is MDF. The rest appears to be solid wood and feels quite solid too.

We ordered this set for our two grandchildren. It appears to be constructed from wood as it is very heavy and looks like painted wood. We were very happy with this product and the kids loved it.

Not sure of the exact weight. We purchased it for my 4year old nephew as a learners board and he carries it just fine. My 6 year nephew can also carry it and ride it as well. They aren't doing tricks and things so I'm not sure about that, but we are satisfied.

The Board doesn't weigh that much, I'd say under 3 lbs easy. The mounting hardwares is similar to a picture frame with slots in the frame at the edges. Hope this helps and good luck!
