Next in our guide is this very traditional-looking, tournament-size board with a 15.5” playing face that will suit players of all levels. The first thing you’ll notice about this board is the price. Compared to the others we’ve featured so far, it’s considerably cheaper. Although that does mean you get less games and options, what it lacks in quantity, it makes up for it in quality. It’s been designed to be very easy to mount on the wall and play, virtually out of the box.

The games that are included amount to 28 with more than 100 options. So, there’s still some variety. The LED Cricket scoreboard keeps track of score, so you don’t have to.

As this is by far the lowest price in our guide we’ve covered so far, it’s not got many games, but does have a lot of options for the settings, so there’s still plenty of variety to be had.

Like many of the modern electronic dartboards in this guide, it’s got thin spider and polymer compound segments that have been target-tested to ensure you can hit the board without bounce outs occurring.

DMI Sports Deluxe Dartboard Cabinet Set

Editors Rating

Now, with so many electronic dartboards that look more or less the same, this next one from DMI Sports is a bit of a breath of fresh air. It must be said that as the only element that’s electronic is the included electronic scoreboard, this will suit someone who’s looking for that traditional bristle dartboard with the help of technology, without taking away from the look and feel.

What really makes this stand out, apart from the traditional design and construction and the option of both electronic and traditional scoring, is the light cherry finish on the cabinet.

The dartboard itself is a full-size 18-inch by 1 ½-inch bristle board and it comes with two sets of darts. When you’re not playing, you can simply stick the darts in the slots along the bottom of the cabinet, close the doors and it’ll be hidden in plain sight.
