Welcome to my review center... I love reading reviews and feedback from the actual users it really helps to make a choice. Here I have compiled some excellent reviews for various product... I am sure you would love to check them out.

I'd be lost without it!

I'm very pleased with the Legend. It does exactly what I hoped it would and with both the build quality and the range of software available, it should give me many years of useful service.

Relatively cheap, robust, European basemap, small

Overall I have been extremely happy with my eTrex Legend unit. It is extremely well made and very robust, it has taken several knocks but none have harmed it. The unit looks and feels very attractive. It is easy to use and Im sure a beginner could start using it very quickly. The buttons are easy to use on the side of the unit which keeps the front nice and clutter free. The click stick on the front of the unit is the only button on the front and this too is easy to use. The screen is clear despite being black and white. I picked mine up for around £100 from ebay just over a year ago and think it has represented excellent value for money and have not been disappointed with it. The only bad thing about the unit is the lack of USB PC connection. Although this is a function im sure not many people use all that often. I would definately reccomend this unit to potential buyers, it is great for everyone, for a first GPS reciever or for someone looking for a few more functions on a GPS at excellent value for money.

Cheap, but you don't get the bang for the buck

Returning mine - terrible reception, usability, and issues with the software or positioning placed me at random spots on the planet.

Extremely accurate

Maybe I bought a defective unit granted i am a novice with a gps but i read all the directions and i could not the contrast to show better in the daylight. The ease of use wasn't all bad. I was rafting down the grand canyon and was amazed with all the info it provided.

eTrex Legend is a very good value for the money

This is my first GPS and when I buy my next one, I will make sure that I get one with a larger memory chip. When I am at home in San Antonio, I can only load the detailed maps for the north half of the city. If I go to the Gulf of Mexico, I have to be very selective as to which maps I load before filling up the memory and of course, the area that we spend most time in near Rockport is at the intersection of 4 of the detailed maps. All things considered, I feel that it is definitely worth the money I paid for it.

I would highly recommend it

I think the performance of the unit is excellent and I couldn't ask for anything more in a GPS of this size (except for the memory card slot). I would highly recommend it.

The Best Way To Go For GPS

In All, The Etrex Legend GPS is your best Buy in a handheld mapping GPS. If your'e looking for more features, check out the more expensive Etrex Vista and Garmin Gpsmap 76, or the very expensive handheld cartographic units, but if you just want a very good, inexpensive, handheld mapping GPS, The Legend is the best around.

Small and bright touch sensitive screen

Overall, the TomTom One Europe is an easy to carry (easy to steal) touch sensitive GPS device. But they're all like that. What separates this model from the others is that this one is small, light, and is more accessible, and that's what counts.

Directions could be worded slightly better

The only negative I would say is that I feel some of its directions could be worded slightly better. This is only because I have had experience of a Mini built in sat nav and they had better wording that you didn't really need to look at the screen. Whereas the TomTom will say keep left when on a motor-way and in the corner of the screen it will show you the road you have to follow. For the money I would say it is worth every penny and I don't re-great the purchase.

I would recommend this product to anybody

I would recommend this product to anybody - whether for business or pleasure. Never again will you have to try and read a map whilst driving along or be bickered at by the back seat map reader. Buy one today!
