I have not used the unit too much yet since I have not travelled since purchasing it. It does not know where I Live, fo some reason it thinks I live on the other end of the road from where I actually live. I did use it to find an address I was unfamiliar with. I had printed out a map from one of the bigger internet map providers, and tried the unit. I came to a intersection where the map would have me take a left, but the Garmin said turn right. I folllowed the Garmins directions and it carried me right into the parking lot. So far I am well pleased with the unit. It is nice that it shows the posted speed limit on roads as you travel.
What's great about it: Easy to use once you get started
What's not so great: Menu icons are confusing when you first start
