Came better equipped with accessories than described on the product page. Believed to have late update on preloaded maps.

Was exactly what I was looking for. Widescreen unit that spoke the actual street name at a budget price. Was originally shopping on auction websites but Garmin’s 1 year warranty doesn’t support refurbished units sold on auction websites. Was also scared about it being a refurbished unit, but so far no issues. I’ve updated the software and downloaded the latest maps, all without issue. Doesn’t come in a fancy retail box, but does include the mount and suction cup. Based on my experience, I would recommend the unit to a friend.

So far so good!
I must concur with another reviewer, this gps is most certainly not for short trips. If you know a shorter way take it, because this system, and probably all gps systems, will…

Worked right out of the box. Batteries still had enough juice to acquire satellites before plugging into car power. Voice instructions clear and easy to understand.

Hope the new ones are better than this refurbished
It takes 3 minutes or more to find signal.
If I leave it in the center of my compact car, or to the back seat, it will say “Lost Satellite Receptions”.

Arrived as advertised. refurbished unit like new with new unit warranty. Unit had old firmware and maps, but Garmin provided downloadable updates at no charge. Works great and great Garmin Customer Service
