+ I own one of these myself and find it light and compact and easy to use, therefore I bought one for my sister for Christmas.

- There are no bad points to this product at all, it is user friendly and even a child could use it.

Julie, Ayrshire

+ nice neat unit, very good price and easy to use

- sometimes confuses sharp corners with turns. Not the most up to date maps, although i don't think even the more expensive sat navs are that up to date either

Martin, Southend-on-Sea , “A seasoned traveller”

+ It's easy to use, nice and small, no frills - just practical... great!

- It took us through Central London once when it ought to have been quicker around the M25... it took over an hour extra than expected so don't trust it around London.

Anonymous verified purchaser

+ Very easy to use touch screen and menu design.
Graphics and display are clear, sharp, easy to view and follow.

- Help function is limited - really need to have read the user manual to make sense of the help function.
If you dont directly follow the calculated route, it can take some time to recalculate the alternative route you are following.
