    5.0 out of 5 stars A great SatNav, highly recommended, 23 April 2010
    This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1390T 4.3" Sat Nav with UK and Europe Maps (Electronics)
    Bought this a couple of days ago. Due to the volcano cloud, I had to drive from CH to Calais on the north of France and back. My old GPS didn't have Euromaps and was 5 years old so I needed an upgrade

    + Very easy to use
    + Points of interest + favourites work well
    + pedestrian mode works well, finding fuel, shops, money, restaurants in an unusual town is now very easy
    + built quality top
    + voice clear
    + route calcuations very quick, 850km takes 5 secs to calculate
    + Add in a "via" point if you want to detour. When you select a new desitination while driving a current route, it asks if this is a via point or a new destination. (some reviews says it doesn't have this feature???)
    + speed limits displayed, 99% accurate and very handy
    + fixed speed cameras, good to know where they are
    + Distance to go, time to go etc, very accurate
    + Very secure windscreen mount and clasp.
    + At autobahn junctions, display switches to show... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great machine- really works well, 11 Nov 2010
    This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1390T 4.3" Sat Nav with UK and Europe Maps (Electronics)
    I bought this for a marketing trip in which we were to visit 120 shops throughout the UK in a 2 week period (Poole to Inverness, Canterbury to Menai Bridge). So a pretty extensive undertaking, we were to be on our own in the car for the majority of the time and although I am a confident driver I had never driven in the UK previously. If it wasn't for this sat nav it wouldn't have worked!

    We had opportunity to compare it as we hired the second unit from the car hire company. The unit we hired was an older Garmin. It was not wide screen and didn't have traffic knowledge or bluetooth. I have to say this machine was vastly superior in its navigation. We each had highly frustrating situations with the hired one in which we simply couldn't find our way- telling us to turn where there were no roads/one way roads. Taking us repeatedly on and off packed motorways, ambiguous directions etc. This NEVER happened with this machine. Well, there was the odd ambiguous direction,... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bought this rather than a Tomtom - and very glad I did !, 4 July 2010
    This review is from: Garmin Nuvi 1390T 4.3" Sat Nav with UK and Europe Maps (Electronics)
    I bought this Garmin product a couple of months ago, having had TOMTOMs (and 1 Garmin)in the past. I deliberately waited a while before reviewing it to put it through its paces. I have mainly been a Tomtom user but my latest Tomtom (Europe XL) was nicked from the car! so I needed a new unit. I was a quite disappointed in the tomtom, particulalry since the batteries would flatten if it wasn't used for a few days then would take a few moments to spring into life - very poor really and not unheard of apparrently. So... this time I bought a GARMIN. This model is much much much more improved than my earlier Garmin. It is easy to use (the wife got the hang of it in no time), fires up quickly, retains its charge, speaks street names and road numbers (wow - how good is that - it's brilliant). Never thought I'd use Bluetooth for my phone, but hey... its so easy I don't know how I managed without it. I could rave on and on about this unit, but you probably get the picture by now (I give...
