This was the first dartboard I purchased after longing to have one for awhile now!  After doing more research, I did not realize that Winbau (?? not sure on the name) sells a staple-free board, which will result in virtually no bounce-outs.  Since owning this board for the past month, had several bounce-outs as a result of the darts hitting the metal staples that are exposed.  No plans on getting the staple-free board just yet, but eventually will after I feel like upgrading!  Still a good quality board for the price of $40+.
