    I bought this about 3 weeks ago and had it in my new mustang which I only drive on sunny days. Today I was driving and hit a bump and the detector case actually split where the mount clips in. I took it back to Best Buy and exchanged it so no worries there but I'm skeptical on this one lasting any longer... As far as detecting the law - it has worked great and has alerted me long before I see smokey rolling over the horizon. That is the only reason I'm giving this product another go. It works! They need to reinforce the chassis or something though... 3 stars for durability - 5 stars for detection.

    A lot of annoying false alarms. The mount is still an issue after so many years - wobbles a lot! Bought through best buy website and couldn’t get the price adjustment at the store when the price went down. So annoying!

    I really enjoyed trying this radar out being that it's similar to WAZE but unfortunately if ever you need to update the firmware on it, it's not compatible to apple. Maybe when ever they come out with one that is, I'll look into it again.

    Easy to set up/use. Very effective with great range, even around bends in the road/corners. Speed monitor option keeps me aware of my speed with "over speed alert". Overall great for folks that do a lot of driving.

    This is my second Escort Radar Detector and it works at least as well as the first one. The display is nicer and looks cool. They are all build like a tank. The speed limit info is not always available.

    I love my radar and do not regret buying it at all. Very helpful with avoiding tickets and has saved me a few times now; however, it is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

    I read a lot of reviews before purchasing this radar detector. It had some negative reviews but I have not experienced any issues in the couple of weeks that I have been using it. This was an upgrade from a 20 year old Escort Passport so it has a lot more functionality. I also like the phone app that links to the detector. For the price, I think this radar detector is great. I'm not sure what I would get if I paid another $200-$300 for the higher end models.

    The one feature I wanted was a way to see what direction radar (or laser) was coming from. They just released that version... Otherwise, an excellent detector. The phone interface is great but a bit cumbersome to use while driving though.
