Cricket Pro 650
May 6, 2017
Got this board based on the price and reviews and am not disappointed at all. Installation was easy and the instructions give you the proper measurements for where you need to drill your pilot holes to put the board at regulation height.The darts that come with the board seem pretty decent, but I haven't played with them extensively. Nice to have spare darts for friends to come over and play though.I have been using my 18g darts with this board and they work just fine. They do hit the board a little bit loud, but part of that is just the way I throw. Just don't play at night if you have light sleepers around.For me, it seemed as though there was a break-in period for the board. My first shots stuck in very hard and were difficult to remove, even broke one tip off in the board. After hours and hours of playing, I don't have to get a workout pulling my darts out anymore.All in all, great quality dartboard. The 650 gives you great quality with a decent price.

December 13, 2016
Lots of fun, like that it shouts out commands and keeps score, makes playing a game real easy and you don't have to keep track of score on paper.
Highly recommend!
March 10, 2016
We Are LOVING this board.I learned to play darts on the arachnid machines that you feed cash to, at the bar. I used to play often with friends and really enjoyed the experience. I was looking for that same feeling in purchasing a board for home use.The large machines at the bars are usually made by this same brand so I was hoping for the same quality and feel. I am pleased to report that I did get the quality and feel I was looking for.We have had 3 game nights using this board and are really enjoying playing all the standard games. We like the sound of the announcement on the board and while it is loud, if you have a group of 4 to 6 people in your game room or play movies or Tv (like we do) then the volume is great.My husband and I both really like the darts that came with this board. Others are describing them as "heavy" and resulting in "heavy throws" which make it hard to get the darts out. We are not finding that. In fact, I was concerned about this issue based on other reviews. I went ahead and ordered the "Dart pro soft tip plastic darts, 4 colors, pack of 12". We played with the arachnid darts and had great accuracy, nice grip and NO BOUNCE OUTS or misses. We tried out the dart pro darts and lemme tell ya... dislike! Those darts are way too light and feel terrible in hand. They bounce out a ton and we often had not nice/errant throws with those flimsy darts. I do not recommend buying those, unless you have never played darts before or you want them for guests/roundy children.The display here is great and easy to read once you get acquainted with it. I was a little overwhelmed at first but then we learned how to operate it and it's a breezy. Keep the manual around, it clearly explains the set up on new game/adding players... I am thinking of making a quick start guide for guests.We also really like that this is not battery operated but it is plug in. We happened to have an outlet right below where our board is plugged in so it worked out nicely. Keep that in mind when purchasing.Dos: Order some extra arachnid darts, just like the ones that come with this board and enjoy your board.Don'ts: do not order the plastic, cheap dart pro darts as suggested in other reviews.I looked at other boards here on amazon, some more $$ and some less $$ but I am convinced that I paid a great price for a nice group of useful features and a quality item. Highly recommend!
Only been using it for a few days but have played a good number of games
January 2, 2015
Unlike some of the other reviews, mine came well packaged and clearly unopened. Only been using it for a few days but have played a good number of games. The board itself is just like the coin-ops at the bar. I can read the scores and cricket lights without a problem. Computer opponent is okay but can be beat easily on highest level in cricket and almost impossible to beat at any level in Bermuda. Still better than playing alone as you can still test your game strategy. I think the darts it came with are pretty good quality for the "included" variety. I have tried all the types of tips I have (the included ones, some older ones, and stubbies). All stick fine with the same amount of bounce out as you get on any board (my own tips are pretty beat up anyway). Mounts sturdy with two mounting points. Has a lot of games, but I bought it primarily for 301, 501, cricket, and Bermuda. I will have to try the others sometime. As far as the darts being hard to remove from board, you need to remove them properly (twist clockwise and pull). Sound is a bit loud even on low but I am glad this does not have heckler as that is annoying. I suggest mounting board on a backboard that can absorb a little more shock than a wall. Here is what mine looks like mounted.Should I have any problems I will update this review, but so far so good.
Good board at a good price.
May 4, 2013
This board does exactly what you'd expect it to. Very few bounce outs, keeps score well, provides the classic color pattern on a full 15.5" board. The only thing I don't like is that there's no way to turn off the double bullseye to score all bullseye hits as 50 points like in league. The Cricket scoreboard takes a game or two to get used to but once you figure out that the bottom row is essentially the "rabbit", or the highest score anyone in your group currently has, it starts to make a lot more sense. Both rows will flash red when a segment is completely closed.
Bullseye Buy
October 19, 2012
This the 2nd one I have owned and it is as good as the first so far. The first one lasted almost 10 years of brutal competition between friends and I and yes even the beating the relatives kids gave it. Toward the end the old one was bouncing darts and not keeping score so on to a new one as we take our darts very seriously when the cold comes to the Adirondacks. I would suggest this board to anyone. It is a good board, solid, functional and worth every dollar. It is a bulls eye of a buy!

dart board
January 13, 2017
awesome board once you get one that works took 3 times (boards) to get one that work been having it for 7 years now and still working good
great dartboard!
November 20, 2016
This is a great easy to use dartboard! The only complaint I have is when you first turn it on the sound is really load!
I like the dart board
November 13, 2016
I like the dart board. The instructions are not too intuitive for some functionality and changing settings. Default volume is way too loud. The darts that come with this are pretty cheap quality and one was stripped (unable to put a new soft tip in) on day one. I ended up buying better darts and am very happy with the board. Would recommend this.
Disappointed.
August 9, 2016
I liked the board OK, but didn't love it for the price. More bounce-outs than I expected. This board does not have single/double bull option. The flashing indicators when you close a cricket number really got on my nerves. Spend a few more dollars and get the Viper Solar Blast.
Overall, great board
October 9, 2015
Pretty nice board. There are a lot of different game options. The darts don't have any uses sticking in the board. It was also very easy to put up (just 2 screws). Overall I am pretty happy.I wish the volume options were a bit better.I seems like the options are Loud, Really Loud, and mute. Other than that, great board.
Worth it.
December 17, 2012
Being a league shooter I figured I would try to give a logical review:Pros:-Regulation (tournament) size / arachnid colors.-Thick board, braces well against dart throws, very few bounce outs with 16gram or bigger darts. Some reviewers have said it's hard to pull the darts out: personally I love it. Most dart throwers know you have to twist the dart clockwise to easily remove any dart, but the board is solid and catches darts as well as a brand new arachnid stand-up board.-Shows 4 players scores at once unlike most others with 2 score screens, if that.-Next player button only has to be hit once and power button is far enough away that you won't accidentally turn the game off.-Cricket colors (green to orange to red) are easy to tell the difference and I don't have perfect 20/20 vision. Not to mention once you close a score for all players it flashes red so you know it's closed.Cons:-Like most boards, this one doesn't give the option to turn off double bull so you can get 50 points for a single. You can just skip the turn back to yourself, give yourself another single bull and then skip back to the next player to make up the difference...-The sound actually is pretty loud even on Low compared to most boards, but you can turn it off all the way which is nice. The single sounds like bingo as said by other reviewers as well, but obviously not a big deal. If you're buying this board it's not for the great sound quality.-Darts don't always register. The board definitely works...don't assume the panels are bad, but if you use light darts, even 16gram darts, then you'll have to watch and make sure every dart is being counted. The board is so good at catching the darts and not letting them bounce out that it actually stops the dart from penetrating the sensor panel. Not exactly a con as much as an over-pro in my opinion. :)Overall if you play league darts or really like darts and want something of quality without going overboard, then this is your board. The other Arachnid's that are cheaper in the 60-100 range are much cheaper in quality as you can find out through the reviews. This board is perfect at 150 as your not over-spending, but you're getting your money's worth. I've had the board for about a week now, I use it daily, and it works great. It's a good buy, don't go cheap! Thanks for reading.

July 24, 2017
This is only OK. It is very hard to hear what the dart board is saying. I should have purchased one I had tried and seen at Sports Authority. In fact the board is not working now! :-(
Decent board
October 19, 2016
I purchased this product for my husband who is an active dart player.He rates it 3.5 Stars. Here are his thoughts.- Not a lot of bounce outs.- Solo play feature - AI programming becomes predictable after a while.- Good beginner board or recreational board but advanced players may want a different board.- double bullseye cannot be turned on and off like it can be in higher models
Too many buttons!

This dart board is very fun, but it is confusing to start a game.

like the board but the computer is no challenge to play. its locked into a predictable pattern
Buy darts for this.
December 27, 2015
Dart board is great! The darts are less than desirable. The tips don't thread in because they're too small. Three out of the six darts that were included are useable. Other than that I have no complaints with the dart board.
CRICKET PRO 650 ELECTRIC DART GAME
January 1, 2012
I like the dart game itself, however, when we got it and put it up and used it the first time some of the points did not register as being hit by the dart. I am in the process in dealing with the company as to get it repaired or replaced as it is under warrenty for a year. So far I haven't been able to talk to a person directly. Maybe it is due to the holiday season. I have been receiving e-mails from them and had to e-mail a copy of my receipt as to when I purchased it so I can get an RMA number to return the game. Hopefully this will go smoothly and I will either get the game repaired or replaced. The points that did register when hit by the dart worked good, and the reviews about the sound system not being really clear to hear, I agree with. When the announcer says single it sounds like Bingo. I guess I can live with that. Once we get the game working properly I am sure we will like it. It wasn't too bad to install on the wall either. Luckily where we wanted to hang it on the wall, it had a stud there to screw the screws into. I guess I should write another review after this ordeal in getting it fixed. As for purchasing it from Amazon, it came in a timely fashion and I have no complaints about the ordering process.

Missing hardware
Not very durable.
May 13, 2016
Had it for 15 months, and now it died after limited use. Had hoped it would have lasted longer than that.
Poor Quality!!!
March 28, 2016
I bought this as a gift. It worked great for a little bit. Within a month the electronics stopped working at times. It doesn't always recognize a thrown dart. The dart will be stuck in the game and you can't even manually get it to respond. Then it starts working again for a while. Sometimes it just doesn't add the score even when it says you hit something. Poor Quality!!!

Good Dart Board, Horrible, Horrible Darts
January 17, 2016
If Arachnid were selling this dartboard without any darts, I would give it four stars. The board itself functions well and has numerous game options. My only complaint with the board is that the volume is too loud even on low. While the dartboard volume can be turned off completely, it seems one has to turn off the volume every time the board is plugged in, which leaves the board producing its very loud game introduction noise every time.Yet, I gave this item two stars because Arachnid should be absolutely ashamed about the quality of darts it is providing. The board came with 6 darts, all of which broke completely within a week (our accuracy is not that bad). The flights break quickly and cannot be reattached to the dart, as the plastic becomes frayed, the tips break off into the board and can't be removed, and the connection between the metal portion of the dart and tip becomes stripped very easily, so replacement tips cannot be used. For $120, Arachnid can and should do much better.
Great for practice if you don't care about the score
September 28, 2011
I am on my second board. The first one arrived with almost half of the segments not working on right side of the board. Amazon was great in handling the return and replacement. After playing on the new board for a couple weeks here are a few thoughts;Pro:---- regulation size board (this was the most important feature to me)---- few bounce outs---- easy to mount on the wall---- lots of different gamesCons:---- after a few weeks of play a couple segments are not working---- no option to make the entire bulls area worth 50 pts like in league 01 play---- the plastic over the digital display is weak, my kids have already put a dart through it---- volume lvl of the board is too loud even on the lowest lvl (minor flaw)Even with the flaws I am going to keep the board as I primarily am just interested in having the same size and type of board that we use in league to practice on. As for the electronics being messed up; I don't really care about keeping score and my kids could probably stand to do some more arithmetic anyway. If I decide to try and fix the board myself I'll update the review with the results. I think some other reviewers have suggested getting the next board up in this line, I would have to agree with that suggestion after my experience with this model. I expected a higher quality product at this price point. Perhaps my expectations were too high, though from my experience with the stand-up electronic boards they can be rather finicky.Arachnid should just sell this board without the electronics, it would be worth it at half the price.

TERRIBLE PRODUCT
April 7, 2017
The charger was missing, the sound was bad, only some of the display lit up and the company has refused to respond to my request for replacement or refund. The worst $144 I ever spent. I feel cheated by this company.
What a disappointment. It arrived with no A/C plug
February 6, 2017
We bought this for my daughters birthday. What a disappointment. It arrived with no A/C plug, no darts, and no hardware to hang it. We returned it with a full description of the missing parts and asked for a new one. Two days later, another one arrived in a beat up box with no A/C plug, no darts, and no hardware. We decided we weren't going to try a third time. We asked for a refund. I wouldn't recommend this.
Sad dont get if serious dart player
January 28, 2017
Very disappointed in this board. If u miss a dart and hit player change sometimes it register double 20 for no reason. Darts either bounce out or they do stick and mark isnt counter. Several times i had to physically press mark several times before it recorded hit. And no single / double bull selection :(
Board is fine, options are lazy
