accidentaldissent: for a cheap board this is not bad. I would recommend that someone buys this, and if they love the game, to get a Unicorn or Winmau. Don't waste more money on a board in the middle of the spectrum.
I would not buy a more expensive viper board with thinner wire, because I assume that the board construction is about the same (what they refer to as grade 5), but at this price this is fine. In the US I think you would be hard pressed to find a equivalent board at 30 bucks. There are reviews that speak about cracks (this is the cardboard that holds the bristles together, every board except for dual core has this). That cardboard in some areas seems to be a bit hard, when rotating the board just skip it if this is the case, I only skipped two sections, so I'm paying for 7 rotations of the board, at 4-5 dollars a rotation, this board is a steal. the wires are thick, so you get some bounce outs. some reviews say too soft and not self healing, I don't think these people understand that self healing means the bristles eventually push back when darts go in other areas, at 30 dollars this is self healing.
as an entry level board to see if you enjoy throwing darts, this is great.

Random Guy: 1.Like the overall quality and thickness
2.Sometimes the darts hit the metal wire that separates the point zones and fall down, since we are beginners I do not know if this is an issue
3.Takes a little while to be able to read the numbers made out of wire
4. Good product overall

steve: Very good product, stupid easy to set up, easy to follow instructions, holds the shot better so the darts don't always fall out, very good for the money

BeeKay: This is as a great board for getting back on the dart wagon... but I was quickly frustrated by all of the bounce-outs... I threw a night of darts with my father-in-law and had too many bounce-outs to count. The next morning I immediately ordered a Winmau Blade5 and wished I had purchased it to begin with. It costs more, yes... but it’s a superior board.
Having said that, this is still a decent dartboard. It can take a beating and does the job. I’m glad it didn’t cost me very much money as it was a great stepping stone board, I just didn’t expect to be buying a new board within a week of receiving this one.
I recommend this board for sure, though if you are going to be playing a lot of darts, I recommend spending a touch more on a board with thinner, staple-free wire. If you are wanting to test your toes in the water of darts, this is a great dartboard to start with!

Chon Saffron: After king our other dart board in a matter of days had to try a new one. For the price you pay it is pretty good. Should hold up for a while. My only complaint is the #s are hard to read.

🌈 KT: A couple of picky issues that, combined, I'm taking 1 star off for, but overall I like this board. Disclosure: we are dart-newbies.
I think it's a nice touch that the wire with numbers is able to be moved. I don't know that more experienced players would need that, but it sure may come in handy for us. I would, however, have liked the numbers to be formed a bit more clearly, or even bigger.
While it is a staple-free bullseye, the securing wires are still rather prominent. It's probably better than staples, but it doesn't seem to us to be that much of a difference.
Lastly, all the branding and text on it is very distracting. I'm sure more experienced players would be able to ignore it better, but for us, it's a detriment.
With all that being said, we still really like this. Love the sisal fiber types. I just feel like they hold better and take wear better, as well as look better.

Tammy: Received the dartboard a day earlier than anticipated! Item was packaged without damage to any of the contents. It appears that the dartboard is in great condition but will have to write another comment regarding how the board is once we start throwing darts at it. But at this point, it looks nice and constructed with quality for the price! Looking forward to having fun with friends and family.

Narin: Great board. Darts remain well into board and we particularly like this because we don't throw with a lot of force. Mounting was easy. We managed to put it up flat against the wall with being about 1 cm away from the proper height.
