Arachnid Cricket Pro 650 Tournament-Quality Electronic Dartboard with Micro-Thin Segment Dividers for Dramatically Reduced Bounce-Outs and NylonTough Segments for Improved Durability and Playability

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!

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.

So far it seems like a great dart board. However to anyone that is going to buy it make sure you order good tips and flights because the ones that come with the board are complete crap.

This dart board is awesome! I have no issues with it the speaker is not loud enough for me so I voided the warranty and added an amplifier to new speakers much better sound. Made a wall board and added lights I’m now please by how I wanted my dart board to be, I recommend this product. Just dyi project and skip the high prices on the back board.. I love my dart board great product!

Ordered this dart board for my entertainment room. When I unpackaged it, there was no power cord, which seemed odd. I called the customer service number listed and was told they don’t service “these boards” any longer. I was given a different number and eventually received a power cord. Thankfully I didn’t mount the board because now it powers on with random lights but it does nothing. Can’t select a game or start anything. I really think this was a used or defective board that was repackaged. I was told there are no returns after 30 days so I’m stuck with a worthless piece of plastic. BUYER BEWARE! Do NOT purchase this product.

We mounted ours in the garage. So much fun!

This dart board arrived packaged well and included everything that was supposed tom be included. It was very easy to install and I was in business in about 20 minutes. The only thing I have critical to say about this board is the darts that come with the board are wa too heavy to use with the board. I throw an 18 gram dart and the work very well with the board but the brass darts that come included are not suited for this board and if you use them, you will be burying tips too deep in the board and will probably break tips off on every throw and cause damage to the board extremely fast driving the broken tips through. The features are awesome!
