Help me choose a dartboard for my parents house.

[Stevepredator]

Hello fellow nutz. I will spend a month on my parrents house, where I dont have a dartboard (nor dart pubs), so I will need to buy a dartboard. But I must buy a surround too so that the wall doesnt get hammered. Here are my 2 choices till now. (I can only order from sportsdirect because it has the cheapest shipping to Greece and because I have a 10 pounds off voucher).
First choice is the Unicorn DB180 Home Darts Centre

And the other choice is Unicorn Foldable Dartboard Surround
https://www.sportsdirect.com/unicorn-fol...e=76916590
Alongside the Winmau Broadside Dart Board

I want to ask you which of the two surrounds will protect better my wall? (which covers/protects more wall surface) And which of the 2 boards is better, the db180 or the broadside. I am on a budget as you can see 33 pounds max for the whole set up. Is it worth it to spend 8 pounds more to buy the unicorn eclipse board instead of the broadside? (which costs 24 pounds, while the broadside costs 16 pounds)
I am waiting for your answers nutz, cause I am ready to order in the next hour!

I would vote for the foldable surround and the eclipse. I think you will get more for your money. It's not like your going to throw it out at the end of month right?

Don't know what the quality is of the Broadside board but I would go with that and the surround. The other one doesn't seem to give much cover below the D3

I wouldnt go for the DB180 ive used it and it was frankly an awful board. Had so many bounce outs and board only lasted about 2 months

Winmau!!!

Ok so one thing is sure the foldable surround stays. Now I would like to get around five months of almost daily use out of my board (next month, easter and summer). So should I buy the eclipse? The wires are surely better thats for sure. I hope the sisal too. So everybody agrees that I will get more bang for my buck if I choose the eclipse over the broadside? If there was a standard blade 4 I would choose that with my eyes closed!

[Leaky]

if it were me I would try to purchase the Winmau Blade 4 if possible. My last one lasted me 3.5 years of constant daily use.

Don't know why they don't have a normal Blade 4. I just bought one last week for only £19 from Argos. Shame they don't deliver to Greece

I just placed my order. Foldable surround and unicorn eclipse pro board delivered to Greece 35,50 pounds in total (with a 10 pounds off voucher), I think thats a good deal, especially considering that only the shipping from other stores like dartscorner to Greece costs 20 pounds!!!

That's a good deal!
