    Haven't had a chance to use this device due to Corvid-19 restrictions. Our last GPS device got us to East & West coasts & Canada.

    I had a TomTom GPS for years and I loved it. It finally died and I had to purchase a new one. Unfortunately this GPS is much less than what I would have expected from TomTom. It is very slow to respond when trying to navigate to on create a new address.

    Tom Tom GPS 1525M that I just purchased not as good as old one. Thank goodness I caught a great sale and used my Best Buy bonus points for it. As someone else reviewed it said end of life means something totally different from lifetime. I still had 3 updates for my old gps - however when I tried to upload, tom tom said it didn't recognize it. Took a trip recently and needed a new one, simply put; it worked.

    I bought this to give to an aunt of mine. She had a stroke and is slow with her thinking. I wanted to put the places she drives to often. But I have had a terrible time programming it. Right now for instance I can't put my name on my address for her. It sends her to another address. This one is worthless. I have had Tom Tom on the phone at least for different times.
