Ray Ferington: I enjoy using this board at home. It has a ton of games and player options. We mostly play Cricket at the moment trying to learn to hit the board. The Darts are very light weight and damage easily. Comes with a good amount of extra tips. Recommend for Beginner's Home Use.

Brady: Overall impressed so far with the board! My main gripe is that there is no instructions on how to remove dart tips from the board. I wouldn't suggest the typical route of pushing the tips through since the sensor pad on the back would most certainly get damaged.

To clear tips:
- Put the the board face down
- Remove the 10 small screws from the back of the circular portion of the board (what warranty?!)
- Lift the rear portion of the board, there is a shiny plastic layer connected to the bottom, try not to let it flop
- You now have access to the individual sections, push out the tips
- When reassembling make sure you have the notch in the front piece aligned with the 20 on the back part as well as the rubber and paper sheet with holes
- Replace the back part, there are holes for the posts on the white piece that should settle into place
- Gently retighten the back screws, do not overtighten

So... Not easy, but I gather this is about the same process required on a granboard. Was told by the manufacturer to just push them through... not sure that would have worked out.

Sean: Owned this dart board for about a week now and so far we are Loving it! The light up display is way better than I was envisioning! You literally don't have to do Math anymore, it'll light up where you should hit it to win whatever game you are playing. Definitely recommend!

Jason Ross Smith: Darts are hard to remove. Love the games. Great indoor fun.

Amazon Customer: Contrairement à d’autres commentaires , je trouve que les darts et les pointes fournies avec le jeu font le travail. Les pointes cassent rarement. J’ai même essayé des pointes plus dispendieuses au départ et ça cassait fréquemment. Suite à la lecture de certains commentaires j’ai ajouté un plexiglass de protection pour l’écran et les boutons et c’est parfait. Pour le prix, j’aurais aimé que ce plexi soit déjà fournie par la compagnie. Nous avons beaucoup de plaisirs avec ce jeu et ce peu importe l’expérience des joueurs!

Amazon Customer: I bought this dart board for a xmas gift November 2020. It stopped working 10 months after I bought it. It won't work with new batteries or even being plugged in.

Jason: Great dart board "with teeth". The light-up board is such a great feature, showing you where to aim and what's been closed out, but this "Arachnid" catch material is nuts. It basically won't let go of your darts! There was another reviewer here who recommended the Target Pixel tips for this board and I can't agree more. The Viper tips will break off in a second, forcing you to disassemble the board and punch the broken tips through. Pain in the butt. You want short, hard tips for this board. The Target tips I bought came with a promo pack of Cosmo Fit Point Plus short tips that are amazing... But not out yet. I think.

** Update (7/12/21 - 7 games later)
My gut feel is, either this board is going to break or it's going to get pulled from the wall mounts due to how hard it is to remove darts from the surface. I've had a total of 6 tips break off in the board at this point, and have taken it apart twice to push them through and reassemble. While it's not too difficult to take apart, be sure to match the "notches" at the top of the various sheets to the top of the board so that you don't get any dead zones after reassembly. I've tried a number of dart tips and can safely say...

Travis W.: I've owned several soft point dart boards that I would not rate 5 stars. With the bad ones darts bounced off, were hard to pull out, or registered incorrect segments.

None of these have been problems with this board.

Darts with bad tips bounce out occasionally but nothing has ever required pliers to be removed. I've played almost every day since purchasing and I can think of only 1 time where it registered a hit on the wrong segment and only because I was surprised it did so.

Mounting was not difficult and it comes with all of the screws (but not wall anchors) necessary to do so. The board is loud enough to hear and the lights are bright enough to see even when the house lights are on. We mounted ours near an outlet so it is plugged in instead of using batteries.

Speaking of the lights; they are a lot of fun. Not only do they indicate what you should shoot for (301, Cricket,...) they are used for several games only playable with the lights. One of my favorites is Helicopter with 4 lit up segments that revolve around the board. Your goal is to shoot them out. Fun and challenging for everyone, especially those who are good at the game.

Game wise...
