Editorial Review
It's still hard to get a triple word score, the tiles are still made of wood, there's only one "X" in the whole box, and family feuds are increasing exponentially. But after 50 years, Scrabble has had a face-lift: a swivel base allows the board to turn so players don't have to work upside down, a plastic grid helps keep tiles in line, and a handy bag stores the letters when they're not in use. The premise hasn't changed at all--two to four players battle it out to make high-scoring words from seven little letters--so choose a dictionary before play begins to avoid ugly confrontations. --Lynne Sampson

 A real disappointment from an old Scrabble fan September 19, 2008
My husband got this for my birthday. I have the old deluxe edition, but the turntable doesn't turn freely anymore, so I wanted a new one. I love playing scrabble and have been playing for more than 40 years! When I opened the box I couldn't believe the poor quality of this game. I can't imagine this holding up for more than a few games. The board is flimsy cardboard mounted on a cheap plastic grid, and the letter trays are the poorest quality plastic I've ever seen in a game! What happened to you MB to produce this horrible quality product and then sell for such an exorbitant price? You get what you pay for certainly does not apply to this item. Stick to the cheap model and you are more likely to get something usable. I hope I am able to return this item because I sure don't want it.
 Good review September 17, 2008
I purchase the Deluxe Turntable Scrabble as a gift for my birthday.
It is one of the best educational game I have every played.
I am thinking of purchasing some more, as gift to my families and friends.
I would recommend that every house should have one.

My mom has played scrabble for years, decades! she has always played on a stationary scrabble board. i was home for the 4th of July weekend (2008) and my mom and nephew mentioned having a board that would rotate. I ordered it sent it to her and in all the years she played , i never heard her carry on about that one board the way she did. just her excitement alone may me know the investment was well worth it.
Scrabble- one of the best! September 5, 2008
Our family purchased a Deluxe Scrabble game in the late 1960s with S&H green stamps. It has been well used and is still in great condition. We purchased this new game for a niece who loves the game as we do. I'm sure this game will last as did our first. The price from Amazon was the lowest I could find anywhere!
Thanks for the fun!!

Convenient and Fun! September 5, 2008
We just started playing Scrabble. We had a "regular" version (which has not been played)...but bought a travel version for keeping in our 5th wheel to play when we camp. We had problems with the way the travel version worked (though it is a WONDERFUL version). My husband had difficulty picking up the pieces, and even getting them into the "slots". I happened to see the Deluxe version and thought that it would be great. It is large...but we are able to store it under our RVs mattress. We love the larger pieces, we love the ease of use, and REALLY like the fact that we can rotate it around for the other player to see. It is made VERY well. We don't regret buying this version, as well as the "Official Scrabble Player's dictionary! That is a must have as well!
