||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this on and it works good. The screen is very easy to read and unlike the older ones I had had this one actually tells you the street that you’re on. It is very easy to find what you need and get you where you’re going. I would say it’s very user-friendly.

Good GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice size screen for on dash viewing. Good features for driving when unsure of lanes for unfamiliar exits. Quick recalculating of route when detoured. Only downsides are no instruction or "quickstart" booklet and compared to the larger GPS, showed less route options.

Great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the Garmin unit. Basically, just had to charge the battery, press the icons on the screen, and put in the destination, and I was set. It really was about that easy. Without even trying one day, it 'spoke' the directions to me, which was better yet, so I wasn't distracted from my driving in an unfamiliar area. I love it.

Great GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very useful for myself and my husband. We are not tech savvy, and this is so easy to use. Been taking a lot of road trips recently, and feel confident using this to get us there. When the kids feel hungry, we click on restaurants and select one, and it will get us there, while also keeping track of our final destination.

Great option if you don’t have GPS on your phone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Now and days everyone has GPS on their phone but in case you don’t and need something to have in your car this is a great product. Like the fact that you can update the map when there’s an update needed easily by plugging it in your computer and through the software provided

Easy to use
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my father whose in his late 70’s. He is able to use it and get around with no problem now. We just moved to another state so this really came in handy. We are able to save places ahead of time so when he travels it’s inputted and ready to go. Works great and directions are on point.

Great product so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this for my girlfriend who travels for work and it's much better than using her cell phone. We recently took a trip to Chicago before the holidays and her phone kept lagging behind causing us to miss several turns. I've asked her several times if her Ganrmin lags and she's said "No" every time. Now she no longer misses turns!

Good but no Canada map
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Doesn’t have any canada map. Buy a dash board friction mount since some states prohibits you to attach anything on the windshield.

OK GPS
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This GPS is ok, nothing spectacular about it! The GPS dies quickly!
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GarminProductExpert
Posted .The battery should last up to 1 hour on a full charge. If the battery is lasting much less than that, Garmin Product Support would be happy to help. Our contact information, including telephone number and hours of operation, can be found on at: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/

Works great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So I use this along with my Waze app on ApplePlay in the truck. These are handy to have though because when you go somewhere that doesn't have good cell reception you lose the map capabilities on your phone app. It's good that they offer free map updates for life now.

Great GPS device.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my Wife as she had to go to an unfamiliar area. The Garmin guided her effectively. Like seeing Street names... some never noticed before! Got the beanbag mount, too. Better portability and beats the heck out of the included "windshield sucker"!
