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.

The Cobra radar detector has become on of my best friends. I travel a lot for my job.I have enjoyed knowing she is there for me and she lets me know when to be on the look out. She has saved me several times. Would highly recommend her to anyone going long distances or short distances. Great purchase!

Fairly user friendly. I'm still not sure whay the train aproaching warning kept going off when there was now train. Maybe RFID tags on semis that were once on trains?

This is a great radar. I've only used Cobra for the last 11 years and needed to upgrade since that was finally dying. Figured I stick with the brand for the value and commitment it has given me. It's very accurate with police band radars and always on point. I get much fewer false alarms with this compared to the 11 year old one. The only thing I don't understand is the random train approaching warning, when I'm nowhere near a train station, but it doesn't bother me.

I've had radar detectors for 24 years and I've had Cobra before. My previous $250 other brand started acting up after only a year and manufacturer wanted $100 to recalibrate it for me. So I went back to my trusty Cobra. For the price it's a good detector. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because it is not detecting emergency vehicles in motion. But it's worth the $.

Sometimes says train approaching for no reason but has not failed me yet. Other than the random train approaching this product has been worth the price.

Very user-friendly. So far it has worked great! The auto-mute function is nice because it will lower the volume of the voice/beeping alerts after the first second or two.

This Radar works so well, it saves me a lot of tickets in my last road trip, at least 8 times. When in Highway mode this device can tell you almost 3 miles ahead where the police is and you have enough time to react. So simple but so useful.
