I'm tired of trying to read directions while trying to drive, so I thought I would give this a whirl. I didn't want to rely on written directions, so I didn't take any with me on a recent trip of over 1,200 miles round trip. I took it out of the box, charged the battery, figured out how to enter my destination, and then took off. Easy, easy easy. I like the fact that you can get information on what is located at upcoming exits for gas, food, etc., and if you take a wrong turn, it will recalculate your route. I made a few wrong turns on purpose before I got too far from home just to see what it would do, and it kept trying to get me back on track. I also like the fact that it gives you warnings beginning 2 miles in advance so you know what you will need to do. It starts out at 2 miles, then warns again at 1 mile, 1/2 mile and 2/10 of a mile. Plenty of warning. I haven't figured out EVERYTHING about it -- to do that, I would probably have to read the instructions, which I haven't done yet. Overall, I think I made a very good purchase; and I know I'll be using it much more in the future. I received the item in very good time after ordering it, too.
I love this thing! The screen is a perfect size when (suction-cup mounted with swivel arm) just below the rear view mirror. Non-obstructive, very user friendly, comes with carrying case (small), mounting kit, AAA update disc, charger. Can't beat the price, nor expedient delivery. The best part? IT'S PORTABLE AND ITS YOURS...I take it everywhere, and unlike auto GPS, when you give the car back, so goes the GPS.
I FOUND THIS UNIT VERY USER FRIENDLY. IT WAS EXTEMELY EASY FOR A FIRST TIME USER OF GPS SYSTEMS. I LIKE THE POINTS OF INTRESTS THAT ARE IN THIS UNIT. IT IS VERY HELPFUL WHEN TRAVELING. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS UNIT TO ANYONE
I was excited to get this product in and try it in a neighboring city that I plan on moving to. I have many friends there so I visit often. Well, I was headed to one of my friends house when my Maestro go the directions mixed up. And by mixed up I mean THE ROAD WASN'T MAPPED! This was a major road off the highway I was on. Luckily I knew where I was and didn't follow the directions. I find this happens a lot. I understand maps get updated and therefore I need to update my system. However, it shouldn't be the case if I JUST bought it. I have also noticed it gives you different directions depending on your location. For example, if I was standing at my front door and wanted to go to the market, I enter in the address and it gives me directions. If I was to pull out of my driveway and travel maybe .5 miles, it will give you a set of TOTALLY different directions, not relating to the ones before. Another annoying problem I face sometimes is when the operating system tells me to take a left, when the path on the map goes right. I found this out the hard way! For the amount I paid it shouldn't be giving me these problems. I regret buying this.
This GPS is very easy. We just plugged it in and used it right away.
So far I haven't used it for any major trips, but it has been easy to use without any directions on how to use it. The system seems to stick to major roads which is not a problem and some of the points of interest are a little out dated. The battery power does not las long, but everything else seems excellent; much better than online directions.
I use this unit almost every day, and it has worked very well for me. It even figures out shortcuts to avoid slower roads with a lot of traffic lights. When you charge the unit and use it without plugging it in, the charge doesn't last that long, but otherwise no problems at all. I very happy with it.
This was a gift for my son who love it. He find it easy to used and he never get lost when he travels. I would recommend this GPS system to people who do alot of traveling and need help in finding places.
After useing the 4000 for a month I am still impressed with the accuracy of the calculations. Four to six hour trips and i am with in 10 mins. of the estimated arrival. On the down side, any change in the route ( food fuel etc.) of 10 feet results in the constant ' recalculating route". Routes appear to be up to date and accurate, however some of the POI's are stale or missing.
