Pros Good beginner GPS. Simple to use. Cost. Battery life is so-so. Lightweight. Map detail.
Cons 8MB isn't enough. Spendy software. Antenna could be stronger. Buttons for left hand...
Recommended it? Yes

This is my first GPS unit. So I'm still learning how to use it. So far, pretty satisfied. I found it on sale for $119 at Office Max when other stores were $169-$199. I bought two and gave one to my boyfriend they were so cheap.
Things I like: cost, lightweight, the map detail, options,... Read full review »

Lousy customer support

Pros Because of size, it was fairly cheap to mail back to garmin twice.
Cons Unbelievably slow customer support. Doesn't work with mapsource cd.
Recommended it? No

3 months to downloaded some of the charts I need, and I had to mail it to Garmin twice to get even that much.
I was told when I bought this unit that I could borrow a mapsource cd and easily download all the local charts. Well, it turns out that some versions of mapsource don't work with this... Read full review »

Pros All that you need is already provided.
Cons I did not see any cons so far.
Recommended it? Yes

I have been using this GPS Etrex Legend for over 3 years. Recently I went to India and tried to use this in Bangalore. After about 5-8 minutes of tracking satellite , to my amazement, it showed up all the nearby cities. I could use it all through my trip to India. However, it did not show up... Read full review »

Not reliable

2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Portability, interface with computer, size, available accessories
Cons Breaks easily, screen difficult to read
Recommended it? No

I have had 4 of these units now over the past two years...and each one has broken after several months - year use. You'd think I'd learn my lesson and get a different brand or model that was more reliable! Thankfully I bought them at REI that allows returns graciously.

The joystick broke... Read full review »

Pros good price for real time navigational functions
Cons maps expensive and not detailed for third world, short battery life, and not Mac...
Recommended it? No

I bought the eTrex Legend because it came with a lot of features at the great price. I've tried it in the USA, Central America, and Africa. Unfortunately the AA battery power supply and strange failure of Garmin to produce Mac compatible software makes this one electronic I now leave out of my... Read full review »

Excellent navigation tool for the money

bygldnedge Jul 5, 2005
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Small size, number of functions
Cons Menu controls
Recommended it? Yes

The eTrex Legend is a rock-solid GPS with everything a sportsman, hiker or geocacher would ever need.

Garmin put a lot of thought into the features, but left a little to be desired in the design and operation. The primary function button resembles a miniature "joy stick" and allows you to... Read full review »

Fine in the open, terrible in the trees!

byvw_ev Jul 1, 2005
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Feels great in the hand, Well rounded features, Good battery life, Inexpensive
Cons Not reliable enough for serious outdoor use, durability, poor antenna
Recommended it? Yes

It seems by reading tons of reviews on the Legend that the antenna really is the achilles heel of this GPS! In the 3 years I've had my unit, I can say that this is true too. The people who dont experience problems are most likely in flat areas with little to no trees or on the ocean. I live in the... Read full review »

Cons none

I have had my Garmin etrex legend for almost a year and have to say it is a great GPS for the price. I use it for when I go kayaking and ATV riding and will soon be using it on my Sea-Doo. It tracks speed, distance and gives stats like avg MPH, max speed etc.. I like that I can store waypoints. It... Read full review »

Its Not The Size Of Your Tool Its How You Use It

Pros Small size, Long Battery Life, Back Light for night use
Cons Add-On Maps needed to be installed.
Recommended it? Yes

As an avid hunter and fisherman, this small GPS is very handy, although I did have to buy the add-on street maps and topo maps to get the most out of this device. The size of this GPS makes it handy to keep in a pocket till needed and the size of the LCD is adequate. There have been a few occasions... Read full review »
