Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - review garmin 200
This was the ideal gift for my daughter that has to do a lot of traveling in her job.Simple to operate, up to date maps, touch screen.
great gift, she loves it.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great product
nice item outdated map of mexico you can get 1 mapupdate i updated the mexico map because it was really old and it works nice, some problems with roads that are in the gps but are blocked in real life but very nice item for the money, if you need a gps with basic features this is the one for you

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Hello Garmin Customer Service?
I would NOT recommend this product.I bought a garmin nuvi 200, and it was great for the 1st year.It is now conveniently out of warranty, has a firmware error, and Garmin's customer service is the most inconvenient and unfriendly that I have seen of any company.Their contact us page should read in bold "we do not care about your problems".

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very nice little GPS, Garmin rocks
I give this 4-star rating because it does not come with many features you would find in new units these days, but its definitely worth 5.
This is nice little GPS with enough features to keep you rolling in the right direction. i have used this on several of my trips and it has never turned me down (or in the wrong direction ;)).

The routing is quick and accurate, and the voice prompts are good and timely. This is for a regular user who wants a cheap and decent GPS unit.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Works fine; just don't ever update the maps!
It *should* be a great product, but the problem is that it comes with old maps. Wouldn't normally be a big deal, but new roads get built over time, so they direct you to update the maps (free!). That is where the problem begins.

The update software is not intended for the 200. It is designed for units with more horsepower. And it doesn't work. It completely screwed up my unit, and judging from the complaints on Google, everyone elses too.

Their C/S queue is about 200 calls ... Read More
