Watch Your Speed

I use my truck to pull my Toy Hauler and watching not to over speed here in Az. is crucial to tire wear and possible blow out. I also use a tuner for power which also adjusts my speedometer by tire size. I didn't realize that the Garmin had a speed reading. Good thing because I was going 5mph faster than my speedometer reading. I had put new tires on and forgot to check tire height. I measured and corrected and now I am right on the money. Good feature, Good product! Read full review...

Ok for the most part

I drive to calls at numerous locations every day and my travels take me all around the Twin Cities metro area. I have already found that two locations it is taking me to were incorrect in a weeks time,this cost me valuable time and potentially an upset customers. If you need more accuracy may want to go with a little higher grade unit. As with all types of these devices nothing is going to be perfect. Google maps did get me out to both of the locations that this Garmin missed . They all have somewhat different routing as far as how they get you to your destination . I do like the screen size and ease of programming Read full review...

Don't leave home without it

I wouldn't trust going ANYWHERE without this unit. It has its flaws but so does everything else. It talks to you and keeps you company on long trips and if you make a wrong turn it corrects your travel in a very short time. Just indispensable for night time driving and in places where you are not familiar with. The screen is large and touch sensitive and easy to use once you are comfortable using the unit. I own 2 of these just so I can have a backup if one goes out especially on a long trip and to places I am not familiar with. This makes maps obsolete and has all the info you would ever need including eating places and gas stations and rest stops. This is worth every penny paid for it and even an old time driver will find it easy to use. Congratulations to GARMIN. This model is a HIT. -Read full review...

Great size window, easy to use, lots of ways to find your address

This
GPS was perfect for us while in Spain. The window was big enough for us to see and follow the directions, it had different ways to find an address (by route #, by street address and by zip code. We purchased a smaller windowed GPS and returned it. We are seniors and definitely needed the larger window.Read full review...

Garmin nuvi 52 LM

I have used this unit several times and always been very satisfied with the performance. I like the size of the unit and it is easy to see even in bright sunlight. It captures the satalites quite quickly and is up and running very quickly. If this unit performs as well in Europe, as I suspect it will, I will be very satisfied.

Great GPS

This GPS is Awesome. 5 inch Screen, and I Love how it lets you know what street is coming up.
It is not like the smaller versions where you had to slow down and actually look at the streets name on a Squiggly Line. It Shows up at the top of GPS Screen and is Very Helpful. I Just Love it.

Cons: The Suction Cup after a While has issues of wanting to fall down off windshield. That's the only Complaint I have.Read full review...

Good GPS, good vendor!

Just like new (except no box or manual, but that's available online). In a small car, 5" is a good size (I had a 7" and it was way too big, blocked my vision). Garmin software is a little better than iGo (which never warned me soon enough about turns). Good product, good vendor!Read full review...

Perfect screen size and very accurate.

Bought this to replace an old TomTom that they wanted 16.50 per quarter to update. Took our first trip to North Gerogia in early October to a cabin that was in the middle of nowhere and it took us right to the driveway.
Best investment I have made in a while.Read full review...

Great Deal

I'm replacing my old Garmin. Have always liked the Garmin product and have used it for years. This was a refurbished Garmin and it works great. Don't be afraid of a refurbished product. Most often, they work even better then new because they've been re-engineered and tested again and again, so you're getting a perfect product. How do I know? I worked for the Bell System and saw first hand how refurbished telephones were always the best. I'm really happy with the price I paid which was about $100 less then new. So everyone else's phobia about refurbished is my gain.^Read full review...

Map to there

I use a garmin everyday for work, as I am a mobile business. These are my tool to get to where I am going without wasting valuable time. I especially like the feature that reads out how fast I am traveling so I don't waste my time getting pulled over for going too fast, lol. I also like the way the device has a memory to keep track of where you have been recently in case you need to go back, you don't have to look up the address again.Read full review...
