I am really glad I bought this. Features are great and it's easy to use. The screen is easy to see and the brightness is adjustable.
Husband loves it and takes it everywhere with him! He travels all over the country and Canada in his job and this has saved him alot of headaches!
Having used a Garmin nuvi in the past am very pleased with the overall GPS with a few drawbacks. The touch screen is a little more difficult than the first one I used meaning that you have to press harder to enter info. The other thing is that the MPH is on the opposite side(Right Side) farther away from driver since we put it in the center of dashboard. I am use to it being on left side. Overall is very good product.
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Right on
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. very good quality
My friend recommend this model to me. I am not into the high-tech tools. So my feeling about this product is that I find its easy to use. But it reacts a bit slow and it often has the reception problem (when it tells recalcuating but you are actually on the correct route). Other than that, its a fine product with the price.
I love this thing! Paid less than I expected given what these things usually cost and am completely happy with it. I rely on it for just about everything in my car. Love the bluetooth capability too, leaves me hands free, you can dial with your phone or the Garmin too. Exact directions, always find my destination and I've even learned some new routes that have saved miles and fuel. :o)
I recently purchased a Garmin Nuvi 265 WT as a Christmas gift for my son and daughter-in-law. They do some traveling and have usually asked to borrow mine. I know from experience that this is well worth getting. In fact the price I paid on Overstock was lower than the stores around my area. It is easy to use and convienent. I would definetly recommend this product AND Overstock.com as the place to purchase it.
Ready out the Box, The Bluetooth Technology is Awesome , Great Sound And The Traffic Feature Is Amazing, Ah And When You Turn It Back On It locates Your Position So D... Fast A+
Very happy with this product. I love how they combined the navigation with the hands free speaker. Would recommend this product.
I own a GPS just like the one I purchased. (Embarassingly purchased elsewhere for an additional $50). Actually, this time I purchased two for gifts because I enjoy the one I have so much. It charges quickly. Updates are offered when available and it is extremely accurate. It recently saved us 70 miles on a trip from Georgia to Maryland! It's small enough to stow in one of those flip out containers on the dash. I was stunned to find that these new ones came with a charger, a cord to attach to the car's power, and an attachment for the dash board. I had to buy my charger separately but it did come with a case. The two women for whom the gifts were purchased are directionally challenged and I am certain they will come to know and love the "lady of the dashboard" as much as I do! Of course, the gifts are for Christmas so shhhhh!
I've wanted a Garmin for a long time. This is not only a great buy on a good quality Gamin, it has Blue tooth capabilities (costs close to $400 on most cars) and wide screen! Love it. et
its a great piece of equipment works wonderfull, The blue tooth feature it's great everyone should get one
I had rented garmins when I rented cars in cities I was unfamiliar with and finally got one for myself. I have used it several times since Overstock sent it to me and gone new places effortlessly.
I have owned this Garmin for over a year and I love it. I liked it so much that I just bought the same model for my husband's car when I saw the great price at Overstock. The screen is nice and big and it's easy to learn to use. I like the fact that I can save the location of where I parked and put the GPS in my pocket when I leave. When I'm not using it as a GPS, I keep it turned on to view the map and use it as a bluetooth for my cell phone for hands free driving. I sometimes use it when I'm walking (it has pedestrian and bicycler settings) and then download the trails to my computer so that I can see how far I walked and how steep the hills were. It also has a nice "spell" function that I use often when I've forgotten to look up the address of a restaurant or store or when I need to find a nearby bank.
I love it! It is everything you would expect from a GPS and more. I wouldn't leave home without "Samantha" now.
I bought this as a gift due to my experience with Garmin GPS products. The recipient was pleasantly surprised that all they had to do was plug it in and the system came alive. Their first experience was positive in the directions provided. Based on this experience and my prevous experiences Garmin GPS products, I would recommend Garmin to other consumers looking for a GPS product.
I've not been able to use the GPS as much as I'd hoped, but I am planning a trip in the summer.When I did get to use it, it seemed to take me through city streets instead of leaving me on the state highway, which would have been quicker. Since I knew that area, I was able to manager, but wonder what will happen when I am in an area I'm not familiar with.
My big complaint is that the power source is independent from the vehicle mount.
I purchased this for my nephew . Not only did he want a Garmin GPS, but with blue tooth capabliity, which this has. He has called me from his car, and the quality is great. I was a little skeptical due to reading others comments that were posted as far as sound quality, but it was just fine. You can't beat the quality or the price. He and I are very pleased and would recommend this GPS.

The only thing that kept this from being 5 stars is the user interface. It's not that intuitive and you have to download the instruction manual. I'm fairly technical but the "quick start" guide just didn't do it.
