Review on Garmin nüvi 205 Portable GPS Navigator - 3.5-Inch, Black by Sean Sitton

Very important! holds GPS, finder and accessories

I recently made a trip from Idaho to Northern California and found this little GPS to work great. I was a bit tired of the purchase after reading other reviews but figured I'd do it anyway. The screen is a decent size, the window mount is very easy and secure, and the screen hardly glares the driver (as long as it's facing you). This brought us back and forth with very minor hiccups. I like the gas station feature as sometimes it can be difficult to find gas stations in unfamiliar cities. There is a similar function for "attractions" and restaurants. I also liked that it told you the speed limit of the road you were driving on and was very accurate in telling us how fast we were going. Estimated time of arrival (in the time zone you are traveling to) was also handy. There were times he told us to turn left from the parking lot or something and there would be a middle lane on the way, but with common sense you can get around those freezes. All in all I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to buy a GPS (this is our first!) at a reasonable price. It does exactly what we need and made our trip a lot less stressful.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Nothing included
