I purchased this for my mom because she claimed to never know where she was going. Great price and o love that Best Buy price compares. I loved that the screen was larger so that she is able to read it better and it's also easy to maneuver. She uses it whenever she comes to visit her granddaughter who lives an hour away. So far, so good.

Excellent customer service at Best Buy, very knowledgable sales staff. My purchase included the lifetime update for the maps and it was worth it. The maps are clear and accurate, the device is the perfect size to read when in traffic and it does not destract from the tasks of driving. Well worth the investment.

this is my 4th gps, and I have to say I like the 5" touch screen, free life time map update, and ease of use. I especially like the posted speed limit and your speed limit features. I've noticed i have avoided several speeding tickets thus far. this is a quality /reliable item. quick satellite connection.

I really like the lane guidance, some streets it can't pronounce properly, and sometimes if your driving parallel to another street it thinks your on the other street, I love the large screen, overall a good GPS, although I am partial to Garmin products

I love the large screen on this navigator. Its easy to use and reliable. Updating the maps on this unit is so easy. You just download the application from the Garmin website and whenever you plug in the unit it updates the maps.

We bought this as a Christmas gift for ourselves. The old Garmin was too old to update maps. The salesman was very helpful in suggesting which model to buy. We have used it several times now and we are very satisfied with our purchase. Easy to use, great screen contrast and good features.

GPS works well and free updates from Garmin are fantastic. I downloaded some additional icons and voices for free which is nice so one can customize. Very thin and light weight and suction cup to windshield works perfectly.

GPS was purchased for when my husband travels for work. After using it for the first time, he loved it. He has previously used a TomTom but said this Garmin was much better.

I purchase this GPS for my parents for Xmas. They had a Garmin before but the maps were outdated. It was $90 just to update the maps. So I decided it was cheaper just to buy A new version with lifetime map updates. It works great and they can operate it with ease.

I bought this for my wife. I have an older Garmin so I know that they are a quality product. The screen is larger than my older one and that's a big plus for older eyes. The lifetime map updates are a big plus. It mounts in the car very easily and securely.

We took our Garmin on a 2 week long trip our west and we loved it. It was easy to use & was very accurate with directions. We loved the features that allowed us to search for restaurants.

Was replacing my old Garmin for a new one. At least this GPS has Lifetime Maps included instead of paying to update my maps every year on my old one. The Junction View feature is nice to have, it makes it more easier navigating through traffic and staying on the right path without making any wrong turns on the road. Price is somewhat higher than I wanted to pay for a casual user, but the features that come with this GPS, it's a good deal.

What a step up from my Garmin Nuvi 200! (Garmin wanted $80 to upgrade the map, I don't think so...). No longer a worry with this GPS, Lifetime upgrades are the way to go. I'd been familiar with doing them on my wife's 50LM, and the same software now takes care of both (sweet!) The option of including additional information on the screen is a bonus, you can watch your altitude in real time. ("Oh, THAT'S why the truck really bogs down going up this hill...") I can rent a GPS on an upcoming trip to Ireland for about the same price as buying an entire map of Europe on a card that I can just plug into the GPS and voila!, instant marriage saver.

The 52lm is an upgrade from older Nuvi. Upgraded to get a bigger screen & more specifically so I didn't have to pay for the map upgrades. This unit is well worth the price I paid.

Our old Garmin was starting to act up and not always work. This one is so much better than the old one - bigger, brighter, more features, locations can be organized so you don't have to scroll through every entry to find a favorite.
