Great purchase, excellent value for features. The only downside for me, is that the DC Power Cord is rather bulky, making it impossible to fish(conceal) beneath the dash. At connection end for unit there is a large capacitor, which is the main culprate.
What's great about it: Easy to use, Large Display
What's not so great: DC Power Cord
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've never owned a GPS, but I have used them in the past. This model is very easy to learn how to use, re-routes quickly when you make a wrong turn, and gives good directions. I especially like that this model speaks the street names and will repeat the next turn if you missed what it said or were talking to passengers.
I don't like the search. It seems a little slow. If you are looking for a location based on name, the search takes over 30 seconds and doesn't always come up with expected results. The menus are also unintuitive. since they have to cram everything onto a small screen, you may have to go many levels in to get what you are looking for and may have to back out many times.
Overall I would recommend this unit.
What's great about it: Easy to learn how to use
What's not so great: Search is ackward
I would recommend this to a friend!

from central Florida
I bought this for my wife for Christmas. Overall it's a good unit with a nice, bright display. The spoken directions sound a little tinny to me, unlike thoese from an older Garmin unit I saw a year or two ago. We live in central Florida north of Orlando. A four-lane street that connects to the one outside my house was completed two years ago, but still does not show up in the unit's map. (And yes, I logged onto Garmin's website and performed the one-time free map download.) I'm sure that Garmin purchases the map databases from another source so perhaps this is not Garmin's fault, but it does cause me to question the validity of the unit's maps.
What's great about it: Ease of use, spoken directions
What's not so great: Maps are apparently not updated often
I would recommend this to a friend!

It is very easy to use and understand. The voice is very clear. However, when I am across town and choose "Home" for destination, it takes me on a most circuitous route to get there, miles out of my way. Of course I am using it just for fun, and go the right way; but I wonder if it will do that on long trips where I don't know the area, losing me much time and costing a lot of gas! It does come in handy for garage sales, when you are going from one site to another. I bought mine on Black Friday, and then bought another one a week later for a gift. Couldn't beat Best Buy's price.
What's great about it: ease of use
What's not so great: Takes me MILES out of my way for a small trip
I would recommend this to a friend!

from Tulsa, OK
The unit is easy to use and the up to the minute traffic reports with the ability for it to guide me around traffic issues is great. The only downside is that even with the current maps I have streets and addresses that were changed two years ago that do not appear.
What's great about it: Up to the minute traffic reports
What's not so great: The current map is not so current

Bought this GPS as a gift and we both have used it and turned out to be very easy to use and so far has gotten us where we needed to go. The price we got was on Black Friday and got a great deal.
What's great about it: This is a very easy to us GPS and the price was right
What's not so great: Nothing bad to say about this product
I would recommend this to a friend!
