 A great SatNav, highly recommended April 23, 2010

Bought this a couple of days ago. Due to the volcano cloud, I had to drive from CH to Calais on the north of France and back. My old GPS didn't have Euromaps and was 5 years old so I needed an upgrade
+ Very easy to use
+ Points of interest + favourites work well
+ pedestrian mode works well, finding fuel, shops, money, restaurants in an unusual town is now very easy
+ built quality top
+ voice clear
+ route calcuations very quick, 850km takes 5 secs to calculate
+ Add in a "via" point if you want to detour. When you select a new desitination while driving a current route, it asks if this is a via point or a new destination. (some reviews says it doesn't have this feature???)
+ speed limits displayed, 99% accurate and very handy
+ fixed speed cameras, good to know where they are
+ Distance to go, time to go etc, very accurate
+ Very secure windscreen mount and clasp.
+ At autobahn junctions, display switches to show what lane to be in, picture is very clear and suprisingly accurate. It shows the road signs exactly as they are making it easy to navigate through major junctions/intersections (eg basel border for CH Fr, Ge)
- Kept repeating a speed camera area, software bug, not sure, had to reset (hold power button 10 secs) put in new route then put original route back in then ok
- Calculation jammed at 79% when stopping in services, had to do system reset
- When power cable is plugged in to back, every time you start your car, the GPS powers on, would be better if you powered it on manually.
A great unit, only a couple of small bugs in 16 hrs of driving. Through 3 countries. I don't think any of these are bug free and the problems I had were solved within a few seconds. I took it out the box, stuck it on my windscreen and drove 1000 miles. No need to read instructions as long as you have a little bit of common sense. I would recommend this unit 100%.
Excellent January 5, 2010

Bought this for my wife as she needs it for her work. Easy to work acquired sat practically instantly tested it out on known route and clear concise instructions given with plenty of warning for speed camera's several deliberate deviations showed that set re-routed within seconds (a lot quicker that my built in Sat/nav)Only fly in the ointment is map update (my internet is not fast) HUGE file possibly 22hrs to download. Otherwise brilliant pice of equipment looking forward to trying it on the Continent later.

I have had the product for 4 weeks and found it to be an amazingly good unit. Navigation is easier than with TomTom and the Traffic warnings are brilliant with excellent diversionary information and re-routing that have kept me moving all of the time.
The unit refused to start 5 days ago and will only recycle off-startup-copywrite screen-loading maps-back to off! It has currently been returned to the supplier for repair/replacement, as soon as possible, I hope as I am literally 'lost' without the traffic information.
I bought a Garmin because they are supposedly 'more reliable' than TomTom! If it had been, I would have awarded all 5 stars and a very strong recommendation to any reader. As it is all I can say is Garmin are letting themselves down, at the moment, in my book! A real shame. (October)
The first unit was replaced and now the new unit cannot acquire or hold sufficient satellites to function as a GPS unit. Garmin Technical support helpful but nothing has so far reinstated satellite navigation (including a software up-date etc)! Where next? Just 2 months with 2 units and results NO NAVIGATION! (November)
Now 1 December!
Just received 3rd 1390 Unit and seems to be working fine; so fingers crossed.
Garmin replaced with new but claimed that the returned unit was "working fine when tested "; but they offered new replacement "for goodwill and without liability." I guess you take it as it comes, if it does the job.
I still expect great things, as it is excellent; when working.
Bought this rather than a Tomtom - and very glad I did ! July 4, 2010

I bought this Garmin product a couple of months ago, having had TOMTOMs (and 1 Garmin)in the past. I deliberately waited a while before reviewing it to put it through its paces. I have mainly been a Tomtom user but my latest Tomtom (Europe XL) was nicked from the car! so I needed a new unit. I was a quite disappointed in the tomtom, particulalry since the batteries would flatten if it wasn't used for a few days then would take a few moments to spring into life - very poor really and not unheard of apparrently. So... this time I bought a GARMIN. This model is much much much more improved than my earlier Garmin. It is easy to use (the wife got the hang of it in no time), fires up quickly, retains its charge, speaks street names and road numbers (wow - how good is that - it's brilliant). Never thought I'd use Bluetooth for my phone, but hey... its so easy I don't know how I managed without it. I could rave on and on about this unit, but you probably get the picture by now (I give it 10/10). The ultimate endorsement is that both of my lads, who both have Tomtoms, are thinking about ditching their Tomtoms and buying a Garmin - can't be bad can it !

Easy to use. Takes full postcode or address. Worth the extra money to have lane changes shown and said. The vocal instructions are clear and map also clear to see. Only disadvantage is the charge when it starts to go down does so very quickly and perhaps needs the sound to be slightly louder to hear over a stereo. So far so good and has already saved money on journeys rectifying 'my' wrong turns very quickly. Good value for money and has some of the more obscure addresses I need to find unlike other satnav products. Added advantage of having pedestrian option included.
