[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I shopped around for the Garmin and Walmart prices were comparable to Best Buy, Exchange, and other stores.

We have used the Garmin for years and loved it. When it finally stopped working we resorted to using our cell phones. But there were placed the phone quit...so....we went back to our old friend, the Garmin, and love every time we go anywhere. Its dependability and convenience is great!

Good gps. Does the job it's supposed to do.

I've always used Garmin GPS devices for my cars and my camper van. I've been able to depend on them. A lot of my travels are in the mountains and/or backroads where cell service is not dependable. Having a satellite system means I'll have my directions without having to worry about being in the boonies. I bought the Garmin Drive 53 as a replacement for my old dependable Nuvi. I liked the Nuvi, but I liked that the Drive 53 had more features displayable on the monitor than my old Nuvi. It was over ten years old and still working...but again the Drive 53 offered more and the price was incredibly reasonable. I was very pleased with how easy it was to transfer all my saved locations from the Nuvi to the Drive 53. I didn't miss a beat.

Works well most of the time but every now and then it gives me wrong directions even after I update and reset GPS. Most of the time it does well but I'd be afraid to use it out of state because it does navigate you in the wrong direction sometimes.

Had never had a GPS before and it's most helpful. It did make 2 mistakes one from I85 to Statham, GA and the other from Statham, GA back to I85 - but they were not the same mistake nor in the same place. On the first one it totally corrected and got me there. The second one, I knew was wrong myself and stopped to get some directions. I wish it could be made more stable on the dash board without attaching to windshield - some kind of clip or something.

This GPS does not have voice capable commands and programming route is not as easy as advertised. It functions as a nice basic GPS, but live traffic delays and other features are either complicated or non existent.

This unit does not work very well. The screen is not clear and it won’t allow any changes. This unit will not follow the most direct route, rather it chooses to go out of the way. It always take the longest route. I am very dissatisfied with this unit.

Does not save home address or any other travel place to ease the klick to saved places. Does not allow to mark police in area or auto on side of road, school zone. Map does not show next exist sign.

its to small I wanted a 7" screen, not a refurbished, can't hear hard to see. i want to exchange for a real 7" screen. have the box and receipt, and I took out the insurance on it.
