So far so good despite sometimes random directions

Overall, we really like this unit. The screen is big and easy to read. Set up was very easy, though I had to walk down the street to get a clear view of the sky to assist with the set up. I especially like the feature that directs you to various points of interest (gas, hospital, food, etc). Battery life is good and I don't really see a need to purchase a separate wall charger since it came with a car charger. It makes getting around an unfamiliar city much easier. My only complaint thus far has been that the directions it has given are not the most efficient way to get to your destination. They have always been correct and get me to where I am going, but I know they are not entirely effiicient. Nonetheless, it is an excellent product and recommend.
What's great about it: Big easy to read screen, set up was simple, very simple to use
What's not so great: Occassionally the directions (while correct) are not the most efficient way to get to your destination
