Arachnid Cricket Pro 650 Standing Electronic Dartboard with 24 Games, 132 Variations, and 6 Soft-Tip Darts Included, Brown,E650FS-BK3

This comes with A LOT of screws and it looks discouraging but if you follow instructions it is pretty easy.. instructions for all games come with instruction book so don’t throw it away ! It is a very nice game unit and I’m happy with the purchase ..it could use a light though ,once it’s dark it’s hard to see the board if you don’t have an overhead light

We purchased Dec 29, 2024. Arachnid cricket Pro in cabinet. Did not assemble for a couple of months and it took two people several hours to complete the assembly. Although it is fun, our unit really gets minimal use. After the 90 day warranty it started mis-recording scores. I contacted Arachnid and they told me how to reset it. It again worked fine for a few uses and then it started randomly assigning points that were no where near where the dart landed. I tried resetting again but no luck. Contacted Arachnid and was told “sorry, out of warranty”. Also, they advised they do not sell parts to repair it. So the unit might have been used a dozen times and it is now basically trash. Paid over $300! Very disappointing and frustrating. So, I will unassemble from the cabinet and follow some YouTube videos on trying to repair it. The other solution would be to spend another $100 and replace just the dartboard but with this experience with the Arachnid brand, I hesitate to throw more money for their garbage.

I put it together myself and everything went good. It took about 90 minutes. No problem with anything mentioned in these reviews that almost scared me out of buying it! It's taller than I expected but that's a good thing. If you don't follow the directions I can see how complaints of parts not lining up and thinking the holes are half drilled would happen. Holes half drilled are for the wooden pegs provided not the screws. Just pay attention to the diagrams. Put all screws in by hand and only hand tighten them. Don't over tighten or yes, the wood will split if you do. Once it's together it is very sturdy. I did add a flat LED light inside the top to shine down on the board. Very attractive set up. Looks great. Plays great. Love it!

We ordered this for Christmas for our kids. Assembly was pretty straightforward. A few of the holes were not quite in the right spot, but they weren't a big deal to make new ones. Took about 90 minutes for assembly. There are a couple points where having a second set of hands is a must. The dart board works really well. Responsive, good selection of games, and the darts that come with it are pretty good quality. This isn't going to be as nice as the dart boards you play on at a bar, but for a home, its perfect. I would suggest adding a light to the top of the board as it is a little dark. It has a ton of storage! FYI - it is a little top heavy, so using the anchor (included) to secure to the wall is a good idea, but not a must. Would definitely buy it again.

Pre drilled holes don’t line up once you get to the putting the cover in the back and it ruined the shelvings upon screwing. Requires two people to set up when attaching the dartboard. You may have to flip flop a couple of steps in the assembly to get the think cover for the dartboard installed. Overall decent purchase but the cabinet is made of very cheap material.

I’m giving this a 3 because of the problems assembling. This may have been a packaging problem but the corner of the slide in piece was frayed making it impossible to get in straight and there are two scratches on the front. Also the middle of the door did not have any pre drilled holes. It’s works fine but disappointed with the aesthetic.

Started out being an awesome purchase. My husband put it together pretty easily. However stopped working 9 months after purchase. Just keeps saying error or won’t read someone’s shot. There is only a 30 day warranty so beware. That is something I didn’t pay attention to. There is no way to contact anyone to see if there are parts you can purchase or trouble shoot. Very frustrating to spend that kind of money and you can’t even use it a year.

Glad I purchased great fun
