The perfect dartboard has always seemed out of reach--until now. That's because the Centaur Bristletronic dartboard combines the playability of a bristle dartboard with the automatic scorekeeping and versatility of an electronic dartboard, making it an ideal addition to game rooms everywhere. The board's authentic bristle construction works with real steel-tip and soft-tip darts, so it plays like you want it to play.
The board is housed in an attractive MDF cabinet with a PVC laminate. |
At the same time, the board includes an LCD scoring display for up to eight players, with a game announcer and sound effects adding the color. And you're not restricted to basic darts, as the Centaur Bristletronic includes 32 games with 256 variations. No matter where your dart allegiances lie, the Centaur Bristletronic has you covered.
The board--which is housed in a MDF cabinet covered with PCV laminate for protection--comes with six steel-tip darts and all necessary mounting hardware. The board requires three AA batteries (not included).
About Sportcraft Sportcraft traces its beginnings to the early 1920s, when Walter and Sophia Holdstein first met. It was during a trip to England to visit Sophia's family that Walter, a successful balloon/novelty salesman, noticed families enjoying such traditional English games as croquet and badminton. Recognizing an opportunity, Walter began importing the games to the U.S., where the family-oriented backyard games were a big hit. The Holdsteins founded the General Sportcraft Company in 1926 and immediately secured a unique niche in the marketplace. Through the years, Sportcraft has remained a leader in home recreation products, introducing such outdoor games as bocce, horseshoes, and volleyball to the U.S., and eventually focusing on indoor activities like table tennis, billiards, foosball, and darts. Today, more than 13 million customers a year choose Sportcraft products, which have become synonymous with family fun.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Overall the dartboard wood cabinet was decent for the money I paid. However, the electronic display was immediately cracked and disabled on the first game. One of the darts hit the score display and was completely destroyed. I would have guessed that even at this price the designer would realize that a dart might hit the LCD display and would have protected it with more than a thin plastic film. The dartboard is still used, but if I had known that the LCD display was poorly designed, I would have purchased a plain "non-LCD" dartboard.
