I love it so far. I had another TomTom for over 10 years, that finally broke. It has more upgraded tech than my old 10 year one, but operational is similar and easy to use.

I Love this, because I’m terrible with directions and have a difficult time getting around sometimes, but now I’able to get from point A to B easily! It even Warns me if I’m going over the speed limits, which is Great because I’ve kinda got a heavy foot.

Since we make frequent trips to first time doctors, it is nice to know I can always get there and back home easily. I like how it tells you when you need to update the maps also - I know I am always current with my roads and highways.

I was traveling and turned off my previous TomTom when stopping for lunch. When I pressed the start button after lunch - it was dead. I beat feet to the local Best Buy and bought literally what they had on the shelf. The unit works fine but is is quite a bit smaller than my dead one. It is a nice unit and I will use until it "dies".

I've always used Tom Tom and was sad when my old unit was no longer able to update. This is a good choice as a replacement!

I purchased this GPS because we had an emergency trip to buffalo ny. This is my second Tom Tom. The first one was great but suddenly disappeared when movers came to pack and move. This one is just as easy to learn the set up. Great price too.

After using this GPS I am liking it and it works good for me! I could have gotten more features but I didn't need so I saved $50 with this model. For my needs this does it.

This is a great basic portable gps. It replaced a older Tom Tom that was so old it would no longer update. This is a basic gas unit but exactly what we were looking for to replace our old one

I've always used a TomTom but I needed one with updates and with a larger screen. I first ordered a Garmin, but being used to TomTom, I didn't like it. Just made a 7 hour trip and this never missed a beat. Love it!!

Bought this for my daughter that has a medical condition to help get her around town. She has indicated it has been a great asset in helping her to get around.
