This my second purchase of the Nuvi 200. I bought this one for my son's birthday. I have used this product and it has saved me a lot of time and aggravation. I would recommend it to anyone.

What a great device and so simple to use; don't know how I did without this GPS. I've only used it for 3 weeks and can't begin to tell you how much easier it has been to get from points A to B. Will never want to travel without it.

I can't believe what a great little unit this is. I brought this to Disneyworld and it was so helpful in getting me around there. It took me right to my hotel as well as other WDW locations. It was also very helpful on the 1,000 mile drive there. It helps you finds restaurants and gas stations too. It is easy to use also.

I bought this during Walmart's Black Friday 2008 sale online as a Christmas present to myself after reading many wonderful product reviews about it from other consumers. My Fiance and I got to try it out when we took a two week vacation out to California and Nevada on New Years Eve. This little GPS was awesome, right on the marker, and not once did we ever get lost. Not only did we use it when travelling in the car, we even used it while walking when we went shopping at Fashion District in Los Angeles. There was never a problem when trying to look for other family members that were shopping two blocks down from where we were at. All they had to do was tell us what street they were on and we found them easily. Not to mention, it's compact... so it fits perfectly in your purse or a shirt pocket. We even got to try our GPS in Hawaii (where we live) and it works here, too. We are 100% happy with our little Garmin nuvi 200!

For the price you can't go wrong. I took this right out of the box and started to use it. For getting around this is perfect. Not pricey or over complicated. Negative to it is the price of updating maps online and I wish the voice directions said the street name you were turing on to. Otherwise this is the perfect basic machine that gets the job done.

The first one I ordered did not power up. Probably a bad battery. Walmart replaced it promptly and the new one works great! Very easy to use. It acquires the satellites quickly and details the entire trip well. I would definitely purchase another Garmin product with confidence.

I purchased this GPS as a gift for my husband and did a lot of research before deciding on this one. I knew that I wanted a Garmin, but not an expensive one because it would not be used very often. I ended up buying this one on Black Friday for only $97 (cannot beat that price) and we love it. It has voice navigation and is very easy to understand. I also love the points of interest feature. This is a great GPS.
