Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the product's excellent radar detection, competitive price, and generally good performance. Many appreciate its ease of use and accuracy, although some experienced false alarms, particularly the train warning, which triggered unexpectedly. A shorter-than-ideal power cord and a somewhat dim display were also mentioned as minor drawbacks. Overall, the detector is considered effective, but users should be aware of these potential issues.

    This system is a little difficult to understand. Has lots of bells and whistles for many reasons.

    This is a base level radar. It come with voice alerts. It does a good job for the price. The accessories are also good. It has worked well so far for me.

    It is not a Password, but it will do in a pinch and will at least let you know something is there

    False chirps and train warning with no train tracks for miles. This cannot be turned off....at least what I can tell. It may work okay, but at this time I don't put a lot of confidence in it. It may be that it is what $129.00 will get you. Better models can be over $400.

    I've been using Cobra radar detector since ever; however, these new versions have a lot of false alarms. It is worth the price, but... it bothers me too much.

    Been using Cobra radar detectors for 30+ years. This model is excellent only downfall is getting the 'Train approaching' message when multiple K bands going off at the same time. Other than that it is a great unit.

    Great detector owned it for a couple months now and it's saved me a few times. Only complaint is the train warning it goes off when I'm nowhere near any tracks and as far as I know it can't be shut off
