> 3 dayGreat dartboard. Easy to mount/align/level with included hardware, which will work even on slightly unlevel walls. One feature that I like is the ability to rotate the dart board which will add to the longevity of the board. I recommend watching one of the youtube videos on mounting these boards if you have any reservations or think it might be difficult....it is not. As shown in the included photo, I opted to get a Viper Defender II Wall protector to protect my wall from the darts, and my darts from getting dulled from hitting the wood backer board that I put on the wall. The Viper Defender II is getting plenty of action from errant throws. Very glad I picked that up too and highly recommend it. I didnt realize how much my kids love to throw darts. It has become a regular activity at our house. I look forward to getting a lot of time with them on this board!

> 3 dayThe blade system by Winmau is awesome. I have played on dartboards with the fat wire system for marking out the different sectors of the board and this is soooo much better than those things. You ever come so close to nailing triple 20s in Cricket and bounce out? Well I have, and that feeling is disgusting. Now, you can lessen the odds of some trash like that happening ever again! As for mounting, it is super easy. Like if you have a screwdriver, and know how to use a tape measure, you got this.

> 3 dayNot sure about any of these negative reviews. This is the best board Ive ever owned or used. Ive only had it less than a week but its had over 1,500 darts thrown at it since the family has been stuck in the house because of this Covid crap. Not a single bounce out and so far the quality looks like this board will last.

> 3 dayI was recommended the more expensive version by a friend, but I opted for this one. This is perfect for my budget and playing time which are both moderate. Very high quality for the price.

> 3 dayBig improvement over my previous board in quality and durability. This board is regulation size, and has worn well so far. Like the fact that I can spin the numbers later when the board gets a lot of holes in certain areas (that would be 1 and 5 from all my misses of 20!). Was easy to mount and stabilize in my dart cabinet. Very little wiggle when removing darts. A little on the pricy side, but will make up for that in won beers and side bets with this quality board.

> 3 dayI really dont know what to look for in a dartboard other than 1) does it mount on the wall easily, 2) does it stay on the wall, 3) do darts go in, 4) can you read the score, and 5) do the darts come out undamaged. The answer is YES to all! MOUNTING - much easier than it may look as you just hang it and then use three turn dials to create pressure against the wall and the dartboard so the dartboard does not shift or move when playing. Pretty easy and looks professionally installed. STAYS ON WALL - weve used it quite a bit, and it has not shifted or moved at all. It has stayed perfectly in place. DARTS GO IN SMOOTH - No issues with darts on this board. They go in smooth and very limited bounces off of the wires because the wires are tapered to help the dart go into the board as opposed to bounce off. This is nice to protect my tile floor! SCORE READING IS GOOD, NOT PERFECT - the numbers are made in a wire which, as a novice, I do not have locations memorized. Sometimes it can be difficult to tell some numbers and it may make you pause to think. But its fine and manageable. DARTS COME OUT WITHOUT DAMAGE - while there appears to be some limited memory in the dartboard with some holes, overall they either fill back in or they just shrink a little. No real damage to the board and it seems to be holding up just fine. The darts are also not damaged and no issues with them dulling or bending. Overall, a solid board that you cant go wrong with!

20-11-2024Once I decided to upgrade my dart board the search was on to find the best option. The blade 5 was recommended on many forums and the reviews here reiterated that. The features I am most impressed with is the seamless wire design. There are no staples or anything else in the cork. The other, and my favorite feature, is the stabilizers. These three feet keep the board secure. With my last board I would have to push in the board to remove the darts. This board is so much more stable. Its a small thing, but makes a big difference. I am recommending this board to anyone looking to upgrade.

> 3 dayThis board is as advertised! I’ve had it for over a month now, we play everyday and it still looks brand new. Our bounce outs have dramatically decreased. Now, a dart hits the floor because it hit another dart. I’m extremely satisfied with this board and have already recommended it to friends and family.

> 3 dayI’m nearly 70 years old and practice darts at home. Had an older wired version for many years. The new blade version is great for reducing bounce outs but evidently falls apart. Gave away the old one now I have to buy another. Not confident with this product.
