Five Star Reviews: | 37% Great August 6, 2016 This our second board, a replacement for the same but older version. Lots of games with skill levels for all Great for league practice July 9, 2015 I play in a dart league, and was looking for a dart board that was as similar to the league boards as possible. Most boards are made of plastic, and the holes are small so the darts bounce out a lot. This board has the same nylon face (and even the same colors) as the league boards at the bars. I've been playing on it for about 2 weeks now and the darts bounce out at about the same rate that they do on the bar boards. There's a lot of games to choose from, but we pretty much stick to the cricket and 01 games. The darts that the board comes with are actually not terrible, but I feel like if you're going to spend $150 on a board, you should probably have a nice set. I build a wood frame with a felt back to house the board, so I could run the cord through the back of the wall, as well as mounted some lights and a laser toe line to finish it off.The only issue was that it was shipped not in a packing box, but in the manufacturer's box with no type of protection. The first one I received was a little beat up on the outside, but everything inside the box LOOKED alright, until I plugged it in and there was no sound. I tried playing with it for a few days, thinking there may be a stuck segment or something but it didn't work at all. I contacted the seller (wayfair) and they were quick to send out a replacement, and didn't even make me ship back the old one. The new one actually arrived in worse condition than the first, but luckily this time the sound worked fine.I would definitely recommend this board to anyone who wants as good regulation sized board, but doesn't want to invest in a full arcade-style board. The only complaint I had is with the shipping, but they were quick to rectify the problem, so 5 stars. Great board but upgrade the soft tips. February 10, 2015 We got the board a week ago and are starting to enjoy the games. Darts stick as well as any soft tip game. Make sure you order the better tips. The ones that come with the board are garbage.If you buy the better tips you'll really enjoy this board. | 71% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 15% Great electronic board, buy additional darts February 4, 2016 Pros: Great board with many game choices and variations, more than I will ever need. Voice is loud and clear. Large LED display of scores. Easy to install, you will need a power outlet nearby.Cons: The board was shipped to me in just the game box with no outer box to protect the game. Lucky for me there was no damage to the game.I started the game and noticed that some of the sections were not "scoring". I realized that the sections were not "floating" within it's specific pie section. After checking each pie section by wiggling the plastic and making sure that it "floats easily" , now all sections score properly.I do not have any positives on the darts supplied. They are the 4 piece ; tip, body, tail and unfolded thin plastic tail feathers (sorry, don't know the exact darting terms for these pieces) After using them for a few games, I kept having to re-insert the tail feathers (a pain). So I purchased another set of darts with molded tails, which work just as good but are more rugged and forgiving.Only 4 stars due to the shipping method and having to adjust the board to operate properly. good but needs better quality darts August 31, 2015 Great board but lousy darts. Get the separate multicolored dart set from Billiard Evolution. They work great. I really like the dart board--it has lots of games May 17, 2015 I really like the dart board--it has lots of games, it's easy to use, and the darts seem to stick better than my old board with round holes (I use my own darts, not the ones that came with the board). There are two reasons I haven't given this board a 5 star rating. 1) There isn't a way to adjust the volume, only a mute button. The default volume is really loud. 2) The display is nice and large so you don't have to squint to read the scoreboard but it's tough to see in the day light (my board is in the garage so it gets lots of natural light) but when the volume is muted, it's hard to tell if and when your turn is finished. For instance, if you threw a dart that bounced out, the board doesn't tell you whether it registered or not.With all that being said, it's still a really nice board and I'm sure I'll get used to the display. I've taped over the speaker with duct tape so that you can still hear the call-outs but it's not so loud that my neighbor can hear. nice to play with February 14, 2015 Received in time, undamaged, nice to play with, the only thing is that there are many darts that will fall. | 13% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 21% Great unless it stops working October 2, 2016 Ok So I purchased this board 2 years ago. I got it and was in love. I only got to play about two dozen times before we started prepping for a cross country move. I packed the board as safely as I could with bubble wrap and shrink wrap. Put in a box where it has been til two days ago.I hang it up, fire it up and giggle to myself. Well the 20, the 11 and bullseye don't respond. There is nothing stuck in the board and all the other numbers work.It only had a 90 day warranty so thats out. I don't know how much it would cost to have it shipped to and from and fixed by the company who now bought out DMI sports, or if they will even touch it. Ill find out but I am writing this review because, two dozen uses before a malfunction like this is not representative of a quality product. There are many who seem to have had good experiences.I loved this board. I miss playing bar room darts. But I think ill be cutting my losses and getting a steel tip board. Poor packaging. September 3, 2016 My dart board works. My item was delivered yesterday. A big piece of the frame was broke when I opened the package. The size and colors of the board are perfect. The number of games and the quick reference ... December 23, 2015 The size and colors of the board are perfect. The number of games and the quick reference to the game number written on the board are excellent as well. The cricket scores are easily visible past the toe line. I wish the 15-20 were illuminated as well but this is not a terrible issue. The system volume is quite loud with no volume adjustment. I was not a huge fan of the included darts and went out and purchased a new set. Bounce outs happen more frequently than you would expect from one of those high end cabinets you find in a bar, yet not as much as some cheap e-boards I have played in the past. I am not the best dart player and probably have questionable technique but it seems I have a bounce out one out of every 12-15 dart throws. Another issue I have encountered 4-5 times over a good number of hours playing is the board scoring a different point from where the dart actually struck (mostly issues involving single/double bull). One last issue which may have been an isolated incident, the mounting screw that was included sheared at the head while being installed. This happened while using a screwdriver with very little torque applied. This proved to be a pretty big inconvenience to fix and finish the install.Overall, I would recommend the board for the price point and quality if you are looking for a nicer e-board to play at home. It has its flaws, but I have still enjoyed many hours with my friends playing on this board. The board itself is great. Darts stick well and the board is made ... October 21, 2015 The board itself is great. Darts stick well and the board is made sturdy. HOWEVER, the item came delivered in a box pretty worn with edges open. Once we fully opened the box, we realized the included AC adapter (necessary to power on the board) was missing from the package. I'm assuming it fell out of the box during shipment. Contacted arachnid, and waiting to hear back :(Disappointed to be playing a non-electronic electronic dartboard... Decent Board November 13, 2013 I like the board and all of it's features but we had many issues with the darts not sticking in the board. I am thinking and hoping this was due to the fact it was a brand new board. A few throws that didn't register but we were able to rectify that manually. Also, the darts included with board aren't very good. | 7% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 12% Really disappointed for the money that I spent on this board ... December 15, 2016 Really disappointed for the money that I spent on this board to have it not even come with the correct size tips for the dart set! Yes, I have my own darts to throw that work fine… But the point here is that the tips are way too small for the shafts. The threads stripped immediately upon attempting to hand tighten, and they can be pulled free from the shaft! My thought is if you were a new dartboard owner, someone who didn't have their own darts, you would be very disappointed. going to seek refund or replacement with hopes of better quality. July 12, 2016 Top left quarter of bullseye is dead out of box, going to seek refund or replacement with hopes of better quality. | 3% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 15% The screws that came with the board were extremely cheap ... April 18, 2017 The screws that came with the board were extremely cheap, both broke during install. No sound control and the power button doesn't work. For what I payed i expected a lot more. Not worth the money December 28, 2015 Purchased a cheap electric dart board at Walmart and the family enjoyed so much I decided to "upgrade" to this cricket pro... well the cheap Walmart board will be going back up! This Arachnid board has no volume control it loud ....the darts bounce out constantly (they say it has micro thin fins) and break/bend the points and then there is a dead zone around the bulls eye that doesn't registrar any points even if you pull them out and put them back in!!! Piece of junk!!!! I will research better and by a different brand Total waste of money November 1, 2015 At least 1 in 3 darts bounce out. I tried several different tip types and its all the same. It would be ok if the board cost 50 bucks but this is ridiculous for the price. Total waste of money. I wish I would have used it more within the return period, now I'm stuck with this junk. Junk Board. April 6, 2015 It was defective right out of the box. Scored points that weren't there. Or, didn't score at all. To bad we found this out after we drilled holes in outer walls. On the bright side, Amazon was fantastic when I called them. Great customer experience. | 6% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
