Dartboard recommendations

[logan82]

I am looking for an electronic dartboard for the house. Mostly for playing cricket. I want one with a display that shows what people have closed out for at least four players at all times. I was hoping that somebody on BF.net would have some knowledge on dartboards.

 

I have a Halex fusion bristle board I bought a few years back similar to this one but it doesn't work very well.(you get 18's when you hit ones, I think it is just worn out) I really like how it displays the marks each person has.

I don't know too much about brands or types, but I'll just say that if you're going to play often, don't go the cheap route. I got one for like 40 bucks years ago and to say it has not stood the test of time is an understatement.

 

I've played on cork boards a few times and those are really nice, but you may not want the metal darts--they're completely different and obviously an issue if you have kids.

Edit: Just looked at that board you linked to.... Seems like you know your stuff a lot more than I do anyway. That board looks pretty nice to me, so if that doesn't hold up, I wouldn't know what to tell you, unfortunately.

No I don't know my stuff. I bought that board several years ago but almost never used it. It had been in storage for the last 7-8 years and was only used briefly before being stored.

But seriously... I guess it depends on how often you'll use it. I've always used some pretty cheap boards (probably $40 or less) since I don't throw darts that often in my basement. I'd hate to sink over $100 in something that I would hardly use, but that's just my preference/opinion.
