    The Garmin GPS for someone that doesn't need a hands-free bluetooth feature that continues to provide easy to follow directions. It is easy to setup a multiple stop trip while doing day trips while on vacation. In fact you can pre-load the locations of all your hotels or B&B's before the trip starts. A great stress reducer to be able to easily find your way in new areas and have a accurate prediction of your time of arrival.

    I should have bought a Garmin earlier, because it has reduced my headaches from getting from point A to B and if I get off track it puts back on track by itself. It advises of traffic delays and no worries about media overage costs. The easy menu is packed with different venues, so you can easily access and find stores, restaurants, sports venues, schools, hospitals, etc.. This was a great investment.

    I will only buy a Garmin. My son had another brand and had problems with it. This GPS is very easy to use, bright and clear picture. I love how it shows a photo of the exit you are approaching. Love it and wouldn't be without it on a trip. Very simple to find gas stations and restaurants also. Takes the stress out of a trip!

    I bought this unit since we travel a lot during the winter for hockey games and tournaments. It is great to get off the plane in San Diego or Las Vegas and within a couple of minutes have the GPS ready to go and find our hotel or ice arena and be on our way. It is also a lot cheaper than paying extra everytime we rent a car.

    I use this product for work. It is very reliable and hasn't let me down once. I've only had it for a couple weeks though. It has an easy menu and was so easy to learn how to use. Cashier told me because of hot weather, definitely take it inside and not to leave it in your car since it will overheat and stop working. I got the warranty just incase though! I definitely recommend this product!

    Garmin is a new product for me. I changed from Magellan to Garmin this Christmas. I first purchased the Nuvi 85 and did not like it at all. It did not shoe the road being traveled, only the road coming up. In my line of work knowing the road you are currently on is very important. After a little more research and emailing Garmin I chose the 2557. It has every feature I need and more.

    As I said this unit has been great so far, easy to use, great display, it shows me traffic slow downs that just pop up on the screen, I am learning more and more about it every time I use it. I love the mile marker notice and the constant posted speed limit updates, I supplement the speedometer on the unit rather then use the one my dash board...I have become dependent on it.

    This is an awesome gps device as I use it almost everytime to drive all across the state for business and it always takes me to the right place and by the time it has stated. What's great is that it comes with lifetime map and traffic updates which means you won't have to buy a new one all the time to keep up with current roads. Great buy and traffic updates are a life saver!

    I had a Garmin Nuvi that I bought in 2008- it was time for a new one! This one has great traffic control, including color on the maps where there is bad traffic. My favorite aspect is the navigational landmarks that it uses when making turns. It will say "in one mile, turn right on 1st street", but then "In one quarter mile, turn right after the McDonalds". So helpful! I love it!

    The Garmin nuvi 2557LMT is the easiest to use right out of the box unit I have personally used. It comes with all the features needed ready to use as soon as you turn it on. maps for life is one of the best things long term I like about it, just plug it into your pc and update the maps. No more purchasing map updates.

    Great item for the price. Bought for trip of several days of driving. Only issue is that some locations such as restaurants are not up to date, even after massive software update. Addresses and such are 100% accurate.
