Review 1 for Garmin Refurbished nüvi 1370T GPS
Worked great in Portugal Azores

What's great about it: Excellent price and very easy to Use
I bought the Nuvi 1370T to take on a trip to Portugal Azores and it did not disappoint, in fact I don't know what we would have done without it. In Portugal we used it in pedestrian mode and in Provence in automobile mode. It found satellites quickly and the POI's were very helpful. The only issue was our rental car's outlet didn't work so it would run out of juice after a few hours. Used a Duracell power supply to recharge during the longer drives but that wasn't the Nuvi's issue.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: Battery life and difficult to tun off when plugged into the cigarette lighter
This is an excellent GPS that I have used in and around the Washington DC area and for seperate trips to NY and NJ so far. Very easy to use and dependable. I have never received bogus or out of the way directions. The only reason for not giving the unit an excellent rating is twofold. One, its difficult to turn off - I would like the opportunity to turn it on only when I need to use it. It comes on whenever I start my vehicle if plugged into the cigarette lighter. Also, the battery life is not that great. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend the unit.

What's great about it: Easy
What's not so great: Not a lot of space for downloading additonal maps.
We love our Garmin. It was recommended to us by the salesperson at Best Buy and it does have great features. Very easy to use and we have downloaded a ghost and spooky voice for halloween. The ghost voice even adds such phrases as "this car is nice but it is no hearse." We get a kick out of the phrases! Would highly recommend it to a friend for the price although I think you have to get refurbished because Garmin is no longer making this model. Too bad!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review 5 for Garmin Refurbished nüvi 1370T GPS
Lost and Found in Italy
Customer Rating

What's great about it: It worked as advertised with the added benefit of warning of speed cameras of which there are many in Italy.
What's not so great: Some times it gave instructions which were not correct, according to our Michellin map.
I bought this primarily to use in Italy for a vacation. The itinerary involved flying into Roma, renting a car, driving to a Villa near Todi, staying there for a week and then driving to the Amalfi Coast for another week. Having been to Italy many times before, driving and biking, I knew how the roads and towns were with signs few and far between. Even though we had what Italians would call "detailed" directions, I decided to buy this GPS unit, if for nothing else than to appease Ms. Shotgun. We arrived at Fiumacino Airport, after the now normal airline delays and over bookings, after the comical musical cars, also known as what rental car will hold all this luggage dance, finally we hit the road. Long story short, we would not have found the first Villa without the Garmin AND GPS coordinates, as it was just north of Never, Never Go Here, Land. It navigated perfectly with the only hitch being entering the wrong GPS coordinates (or format?) aka garbage in, garbage out. A foot note, more hotels, etc. should put the GPS coordinates of their locations on their web sites. An added benefit was that it pointed out all the speed cameras on the Auto Strada, saving me billions in Euros. Happy trails!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Large Screen, simple to use, bright screen
What's not so great: Voices, Lack of Lane guidance, Lack of street names, inability of avoid pat of a route, traffic reciever innacurate
I drive an 18 wheeler for a living and have had several GPS's.. I log about 2,000 miles per week so suffice it to say that I put these to the test.
Garmin has always been the easiest to use GPS on the market. This unit is no exception. However for the money this unit is lacking in areas where TomTom and Magellan are not. For instance, the most important feature to me is to see the list of turns and be able to select one of those streets and avoid it. Garmin does not offer that. Also, the map is lacking on street names visible around you. The Lane guidance only works in a few places. Lastly the voices on this unit sound horrible. They break up and all have an strange accent inluding the American.
If you need a simple GPS then Garmin does the trick but save your money and go for the 200 series.. If you want higher end features look at the TomTom series. Tons more features for less money.

What's great about it: nice screen
What's not so great: should come with a real owners manual
Once I got this thing to work, so far it seems great. But since it only comes with a quick start manual, I couldn't figure out how to make it know where I was. I ended up having to go to the store for the Geeks to help me. That was frustrating. I think it is important for a full Owners Manual to be included. Otherwise, seems like a great product. Hope it works in Italy!
