So far so good with this Unit. Functions as expected, much easier to program than my old Tom-Tom. Easy to connect to the internet for updates.

The most important thing to me in a GPS unit is accuracy and this
unit hasn't missed yet. The only complaints I have are what I feel
are poor instructions so I probably don't get the full benefits of the unit, and the fact that I have yet to find a mounting system that I like.

Only problem is the battery dies very quickly. Every time i plug it up the battery is dead or almost dead.

Brand response from GarminProductExpert

Yes, although "portable", these navigators are not handheld and do require power when operating. For best experience be sure to completely power off the unit when not in use. Even if battery is depleated, once you plug into your vehicles 12v power source, the device will power on within a couple minutes tops. For more details on what you can expect from this device please visit support.garmin.com.

I bought thisnwhile travelling because my other GPS stopped working. The only thing I don'tike about this GPS is that it would not calculate the route until I started driving. Another feature that took me a litw while to figure was it would make a dinging noisw every so often. I finally figures out that it was alrring to a change in the speed limit for that section of highway, always lower.

Accuracy is outstanding.

It does the job, the entering of addresses is kind of weird, sends you to non local areas a lot. I get most people use gps to travel, but my wife uses gps for everything. Overall, a cut above average.

There are no instructions in the box so I went on line and found a tutorial for set up. It was easy to set it up. There are so many settings. You can easily go back if you wish to change a setting. The inside charger cord was too short. The screen is easy to read the upcoming streets are clear and easy to read.
