The Bottom Line:
Getting started in GPS and you are not sure of what you want or need, or you need a backup to your expensive primary, this is your unit.
I purchased this unit at a local hardware store as a thanksgiving day sale blowout as a backup GPS. I was not expecting much but was very pleased with the performance at a price that was just a little more than the price for other GPSs' car adapters. Very quick access time to satellite data. It had the time and my position established within 60 seconds of taking it out of the box and putting a battery in it for the first time. Long battery life at too. Great for people like me who forget to shut off the typical batter hungry units. Cons may be that it is not a color unit. Also it is not intended to be a detailed mapping unit. Mapping is limited to interstates, major state roads and lakes, cities and political divisions. Some of the roadways that are displayed in one county disappear at the boarder line with the next county. This unit is not going to get you from door to door. It will be great however for Geocaching, hiking, hunting, or marking fishing spots. I believe that the Lowrance iFinder go has a very good user interface for beginners with enough power and features for the more advance user. This is a good unit for the beginner that won't break the bank and will still be a useful unit even as skill or interest increase.
