Which Mah Jongg Set to Buy

A mah jongg set is the engraved tiles you play with, usually packaged with racks, a pusher, and a case. The one thing to check before you buy: the American game needs 152 tiles, including eight jokers. Many inexpensive sets online are 144-tile Chinese sets with no jokers, and they cannot be used for the American game, so make sure a set is American before you buy.

Because we don't sell sets, our picks come down to one question: which is actually worth your money. When we link to a retailer it may be an affiliate link, disclosed on the page.
