If you own a Garmin Astro 220 this is a great add on. Most dog hunters spend a lot more money on snacks and drinks over a weekend than this will run you

I wasn't sure I would like the Astro because I loved my 60CSx. All it took was a few days of playing with my Astro and realizing it does and has everything the 60CSx has just a differnt menu. For search and rescue it's perfect.

The GPS is an excellent model on its own, and the dog tracker works really well hiking with our aussie. We haven't taken him into country where line-of sight would be a problem, though, and from the instructions it appears that because the link between the dog and the handheld unit is 2-way radio, that could be an issue. Reviews at other sites indicate the car-mounted version has much greater range, but we don't intend our aussie to get that far away from us! I had to return the dog collar because it wouldn't take a charge, but Amazon shipped a new one immediately and a free shipping label, so I could return the first one (i.e., we got the new one before we had to return the old one). The DC 30 charger connection didn't work on either one but after jiggling it a bit on the second one, I discovered that the connector from the charger didn't slide quite far enough into the connector on the dog collar. So I filed down one side of it a tiny bit with a nail file so the connector fit more tightly, and it worked fine. Garmin should fix the plastic injection molding tool used to manufacture that part, which apparently is worn enough to cause this problem. You have to buy maps and extra memory (SIM cards like your camera uses) if you want to add street maps and topo maps, but the software to transfer maps comes with the unit. I had no trouble establishing connections between the computer and the unit. VEry happy!

I bought this item after my Garmin car charger broke. This item has worked perfectly with my GPS, and it seems to be sturdy and durable.

This cable replaced the original cable that came with the GPS. It was compatible and arrived before the estimated date!! Very pleased!!

Items was OEM just as described and is better quality than the original DC charging cable in many ways. Highly recommended.

Lost my original and got this one through Amazon.com. Not much to say other than it works great and appears to be the factory unit for my Garmin.

The charger was delivered on time, but the one I was sent was defective. I contacted the sending company and in five days' time I was sent a replacement. The replacement is working just fine.

I received the Garmin 12 V adapter for my 720 in the alloted time. Went on a road trip in my Mini and on my return the battery ran low. Have not determined the problem; perhaps a defective fuse.

Garmin should have issued a kit to replace the orgin. cheap plastic glued to metal end that goes in cig lighter to power the Garmin nuvi660. THis cord is fantastic...all metal end!

The quality on the adapter is weak, and therefore must be handled with care, otherwise it has worked well. I dont know why Gramin makes such cheap adapters (I guess to make $). The plastic is easy to beak when removing it from the plug.

I bought this replacement car charger for my Garmin Nuvi 660 after my other one broke. This is a great replacement and works great.

So like most people I wanted to save a few bucks and not purchase this product from the www.Garmin.com. Well I got what I paid for. This product died 3 weeks after using it. Even though I bought new fuses (6 different times) for this product it still will not work. I do not recommend purchasing this product. Now I have to purchase a new one from Garmin.....

It was a bit of a decision when it came to this unit and the newer model with the rubberized grippy bottom that collapses. After reading multiple reviews of the rubber coating leaving a film on the dash, I went for this one. The bean bag is super sturdy and so far as not slid once on me under both pretty heavy acceleration and braking. The build quality seems pretty solid and even though it is bigger, I have not had a problem with storage in my center console. I would highly recommend this product for your Garmin GPS unit. (I use this with my 660)

It's like a heavy bean bag but it really works to hold the Garmin steady on the dashboard. It is easy to pick it up and put on the floor or under the seat when you want to take the Garmin. I'm very pleased with it and the price was great.

This is the perfect mount. It keeps the GPS from sliding around when taking turns...it stays where you put it!

I don't know why anyone would use a suction mount after using this product! If your gps fits with this mount, buy it -- buy it along with purchasing your new gps now and never use the suction mount that comes with your unit. This thing never slides on the dashboard, it's portable, and it's easy to adjust for the best viewing angle. It works.

Mounting my Garmin Nuvi directly on the windshield was not an option for my Honda Element as the windshield has a deep slant that would make the screen too far for comfortable viewing. The friction mount allows me to place my Nuvi above and slightly right of the dashboard gauges where it is easily viewed and obscures very little sight through the windshield. I have never had it slide out of position. I would not be able to get much use out of my GPS without this mount.

The Garmin Nuvi 255w is just what I needed. I moved to a new area and had many frustrating wrong turns until I got the Nuvi. The size is nice (not too small, not too big) and is very easy to use. I recommend it for anyone! The price was right too- just $100.

Received this Garmin to replace my 2008 Garmin Nuvi 350. I've come to the conclusion that this unit is sub par on multiple levels. First, and most noticeable is the difference in satellite reception. My unit took approximately 15 minutes to obtain a weak signal on a clear day. This was repeated over the course of a week. Driving through a small tunnel would cause the signal to be completely lost, while the Nuvi 350 would at least attempt to continue your route. Compared to the Nuvi 350, I find the user interface and software to be very slow. Touch screen response takes a bit for it to register on the unit. This creates a dangerous scenario while driving (I know..) and continuously had me correcting errors. Perhaps I received a defective unit, but this one is already on its way back to Amazon.

I love this Garmin. I bought one for my boyfriend and had to buy one for myself. Refurbished it may be, but I haven't had one issue with it and I think it's a great product.

We took it on vacation with us and we NEVER got lost. Easy to figure out how to use and it can find anything! Love it!!

I like everything about this Garmin except that the voice sounds bossy and hurried. Our previous Garmin's voice was much nicer. Maybe she is hurried because she is giving street names and so has to talk faster?

I bought the pink one and I love it. It is durable and keeps my GPS safe.

This is a very nice case but a little too small for my liking. I wanted a case that could hold all items associated with the use of the GPS, like the car charger cord, the wall charger cord and the instruction booklet. I like to keep everything together. The case did arrive quickly.

I live in RI and recently I took a trip to Las Vegas and California, my Garmin took me everywhere I needed to go without any problems. I recommended.

Great little case for my Nuvi. It's protective cover is harder than I had expected and inside there's a "net" that hold the Nuvi in place. I highly recommend this product.

Excellent quality and product! Bought it for my teenager. Sturdy and great protection for the GPS. Excellent price!

We ordered this case and received it just before leaving on a trip. Thank you for your prompt service!

Well made case for Garmin Nuvi. The fit is good, just as advertised for the product. Very pleased with the product and the price. The case is a replacement for much inferior, padded soft case with cheap zipper that did not last. This case will surely outlast the Garmin Nuvi.

Its perfect for the Garmin 255W. Also includes a screen protector for the GPS which is a bonus. Its sturdy and a lightweight case, can easily fit inside my handbag. The lanyard that comes with it is just too thin but overall its a good case that will protect your GPS well.

Just like another reviewer mentioned I was disappointed with the description that this is made of 'Leather' though satisfied with the product functionality. As a matter of fact this is made of 'pseudo leather' which is mentioned no where. I believe when you buy an item online you should be given all the facts so one could make an informed decision as to the value of a product especially when you cannot actually see or touch the exact product. I've been generally very satisfied with Amazon and their policies except in this case where either they have been unaware or have allowed this to continue.

Bought this as a gift for a lady.It made me very happy as I know that this is a very well made case. I have the black one for my GPS.
