    Bought this to replace a really old one. I use it everyday for work. Don’t leave home without it I have purchased other brands before but the Garmin is dependable and easy to use without distracting from your driving

    I gave up my cell phone but needed a GPS and this one was cheap and had great reviews. What a load of crap! If you're used to Google Maps then you will hate this thing. I immediately updated it when I got it home and then asked it to take me to work the next morning. I work at a post office in a small town and this thing tried to take me to a place ¼ mile off of where the office is. But, the best part is it tried to take me down old wagon paths that have been closed to thru traffic for over 100 years! When I rerouted to the only way to actually get there, it insisted on trying to backtrack me to the old closed roads. It was so confused by the time I got to work that it moved the post office 3 roads and ¾ miles away and not the address it was trying to get me to at first which was also wrong. This thing is good for an adventure if you're looking to get lost and have fun.

    I wanted a basic plain jane GPS. This fits my needs. I got it on sale at $99 and had $10 rewards credit so it was a bargain.

    Purchased this to replace an older one that I had. Only used it once so far. It appeared to me that it took longer to catch up if you took a different route than it suggested.

    Garmen 52 disappoints

    The Garmin does provide directions and useful as GPS, but it has disappointed me Among the disappointments are that while I do want the alerts and could not silence the alarm notices but keep the visible alerts. While old Garmin GPS receive traffic information the new one I keep getting error messages that my cable is not picking up traffic data.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      The Garmin Drive™ 52 doesn't include the traffic feature. A GTM™ 36 Traffic Receiver Power cable accessory would be needed to receive traffic. Garmin

    I bought this because my phone gps didn't work & I really like it. I like that you can type in a store and it gives you different cities that the store is in. Really good investment.

    The Garman GPS is the best investment I have made. It is very precise in getting me to whatever location U needed to get to. I would highly recommend Garman GPS!
