Great GPS but windshield mount is horrible
I love the Magellan 800 GPS and POI functions but the windshield mount that comes with the 800 has a ball and socket that renders the windshield mount practically useless. The GPS is constantly jiggling, moving, and jumping around, even when the bottom of the mount cradle is balanced on the... Read full review »
Excellent GPS - Easy to use with features the wife will love
This is my 3rd GPS.
My first was an Old Garmin that you had to download maps to the tiny 18MB of RAM. God forbid, I drove outside the downloaded maps or it would stop. Recalculating routes to 20 minutes while driving. Second GPS was with my Palm Tungesten C, Mapopolis Maps and Radio Shack...

Adequate, but could be better
I thought I did some careful research before I bought my GPS unit; I wish I had done a little bit more. For the price I paid, I think I could have done a lot better. While this unit works adequately, you should expect exceptional performance for the price tag.
First of all, I bought the...

Don't bother with this one
Comments on the Magellan Roadmate 800. This product should be shipped directly from the manufacturer to the garbage dump. I recently used this to go from Eugene, OR to Lake Tahoe, CA. The errors, misdirections, and mis-routings on this one trip are far too numerous to list here. I will give 3 for... Read full review »
Great unit until you need customer service
We have purchased three of these units, one for each car. We really like the unit, easy to use, correct navigation,and 3d view is fun to watch. We have had trouble with two of the units. Customer service is so frustrating. There is no possible way to speak to a person in the US. I was told by the... Read full review »

Beware of Poor Magellan Customer Service
Because of my Hertz Neverlost experience and favorable reviews, I enthusiastically purchased the new Magellan 800 GPS. Upon receiving my unit, I discovered that the European maps had been activated and I could not access North American maps. I attempted to call Magellan customer support twice...I...

Roadmate 800 Flawed Software/Eprom
I had my Roadmate 800 series returned for repairs 4 times (no kidding). Unit would lock up when I touched the "Favorites" menu on the touch screen and I would have to turn the unit completely off and reboot the system to make it functional again. Product was returned "fixed" only one time and... Read full review »
Magellan Hates their Customers
I got a Magellan Roadmate 360 product as a very nice gift 2 years ago, this Christmas the power port got wonky so I emailed Magellan for information on where to take it for repair. I got an email back saying they no longer support this "older model" and that the best I can do is to try to trade it... Read full review »
Poor customer service
During my trip from N.C. the unit could not find my location along Route 81. This continued for 2 hours, I turned the unit on and off several times trying to reset my location. Nothing worked. It found me in PA and again lost location around Allentown PA, Route 78. The screen also froze several... Read full review »
