    It works well. I wish the power cord was a little longer, it seems pretty tight.

    I have a saying which may not be relevant to anyone but me: "I won't leave home without my ID, cellphone, credit card, debit card, or my Passport radar detector". So this product is very important to me and that is why it is a must to purchase a good quality product such as this one.

    I use this mainly for road awareness. Overall it does a good job of detecting police radars however the one minor issue that I have is that the GPS location that is supposed to save annoying different signals from banks, etc, it doesn't do a very good job of saving those even though it says "saved" on the screen. For the purchase price though, overall it is not bad at all.

    This is a great radar detector. I like the fact that it warns you about the known speed/red light cameras. It's an older model but it was a great price for what you are getting.

    Works good, very few false alarms. Seems like it doesn't pick radar up until its pretty close though. Not sure about the GPS feature either. Same route it stores signals but it seems like after a few weeks it forgets the spots.

    We have been very pleased with this radar detector. It has great features like showing your speed when it picks up a signal so you'll know whether you're speeding or not!

    This radar detector is 2nd to none. It picks up radar miles ahead and over hills or around curves. (front or back) It stores "false" locations after going 3 or 4 times in an area. This product is worth the money if you have a need for speed. It will save you money.

    I have owned several radar detectors over the years only to be frustrated with the many false alarms. With the new filter technology and the distance this unit picks up the frequencies.... Well worth the money!

    This radar detector is as good as it gets. It's a little pricey but you never want to cut corners when it comes to electronics. This detector has great reviews from every web site.

    This product was good, it warned you of oncoming radar successfully but in most cases, it was a little too late. When you're hauling down the road and you see the police at the same time the unit goes off, it's too late. Oh well!

    I've only used this on one 1700 mile trip and no tickets. Didn't appear to give many or any false alerts. Audible alert gets my attention. Don't expect the display to be very helpful. The screen is quite small and placing the unit in the center of the windshield as recommended makes it unrealistic to read the screen if you are keeping your eye on the road.

    I've only had this radar detector for a few days. It's a bit of learning since I haven't had one before. I feel like a made a great investment since I'm pretty sure I would have gotten a speeding ticket yesterday. Also a good reminder for me to slow down!

    was told to look at valentine but since i'm a loyal best buy buyer, i decided to compare it to this radar from escort. works great and recently had it installed by best buy in my 2010 corvette. works like a charm and goes great with the direct cord escort sells.
