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.

Accurate Radar detector
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item is accurate and good quality for the price. The only strange thing we have experienced is it sometimes alerts you that there is a train when on the highway. Im not sure if its signal strength is so strong its detecting something nearby but its been extremely accurate for law enforcement and speed traps.

Ok for the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This radar detector is not as good as my older cobra xrs model. The laser has only gone off once and not by the speed cameras by the school which should be setting it off every time I pass them during the week day. Another feature that makes no sense when it goes off is the "train" alert. This is the most common alert this detector gives. The problem is I get it in the middle of the highway, driving down my neighborhood, driving down a main road with no trains or tracks near it. However when I did have to sit once at a train crossing with the bars that come down to block the road with flashing lights the train alert never went off. Unfortunately I had to use it for a month to really see how it works so now I can't return it. Thinking about putting it up on ebay and getting something else.

It's alright but Cobra has had better.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had many Cobra radar detectors. This one is alright but always says that a train is coming. It would be nice if there was a way to turn that off. I had read other reviews talking about how the train alert was a problem but was hoping I would not see the same. I was wrong. The display is green and is hard to see even with the dim turned all the way up. The Cobra that this one replaced had a red display and was much easier to see in the daylight. I have mixed reviews on this product. It works great but has a few flaws.

Pretty good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a cheaper radar detector. And I have no problems with it besides the fact that the detector doesn't stay attached to the clip it comes with when I hit a few bumps it falls out of the clip. Also lots of false reads.
