Review on Black Arachnid Cricket Pro 670 Tournament-Quality Dartboard: 35 Games, 318 Variations (Includes 6 Exciting Cricket Games) by John Contreras

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The size and colors of the board are perfect. Number of games and quick overview.

The size and colors of the panel are perfect. The number of games and the brief reference to the game number written on the board are also excellent. The cricket score is clearly visible behind the toe line. I would also like 15-20 to be lit, but that's not a terrible problem. The system volume is quite loud without adjusting the volume. I wasn't a big fan of the included darts and went out and bought a new set. Bounces are more common than you would expect from one of those high-end boxes you find in a bar, but not as often as some of the cheap electronic boards I've played in the past. I'm not the best darts player and may have questionable technique, but I seem to get a rebound every 12-15 throws. Another problem I've encountered 4-5 times in a large number of hours of play is the board scoring in a different spot than where the dart actually hit (mostly single/double bull issues) . And the final issue, which may have been a separate incident: the included mounting screw cut off the head during installation. This happened when using a very low torque screwdriver. This turned out to be quite a hassle to troubleshoot and complete the installation. Overall I would recommend this board for the price and quality if you are looking for a nicer electronic board to play at home. It has its weaknesses, but I've still spent many hours with friends playing this board.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
