Garmin GPS 76

Pros: Ease to use, great display, turn by turn directions.

Cons: None. Maybe external data card?

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for an all around Handheld GPS, this is a great one. It does it all and does it well.

Review: SUMMARY: I was looking for a handheld GPS that would work for turn by turn navigating, off road 4 wheel trails, hiking and geochaching. I'd also like it do a little something when I go recreational boating. I had actually already ordered the Garmin ...

Pros: Color, Memory, Garmin Quality, USB interface, Automatic routing to destination

Cons: expensive (but worth it)

The Bottom Line: If you need a handheld GPS this is the one. Color is great. Routing and mapping very useful.

Review: Garmin has done it. Given us color, what a difference. A ton of memory 115mb, 5x the 76S. It's more expensive but worth it color is great for maps. Memory allows much more flexibility for loading maps. You can't go wrong with this unit. Garmin has ...

Pros: Accurate, large screen size, floats, waterproof, will fit in pocket, 24 megabites of space, reception

Cons: a bit bulky but it is a trade off for the large screen

The Bottom Line: Accurate, large screen size, floats, waterproof, will fit in pocket, 24 megabites of map storage, fantastic reception and will blow away any Magellan product. Would not leave home without it!

Review: I love this little GPS unit! I use it while kayaking, hiking, geocaching, fishing, hunting, riding my ATV and driving. I purchased this unit for $379.95 on www.gpsnow.com with $6.95 dollars shipping. I choose to buy it here because of the return ...

Pros: Plenty, including larger screen, external antenna connection, excellent size...

Cons: Couple of dumb splash screens every time you turn it on...

The Bottom Line: Buy it!!! Becuase it meets and exceeds claims, and is rough, ready and can be counted on to do it's job in any kind of weather!

Review: Okay, so that title covers just about ANY decent GPS you can buy these days... Why this one? While being only marginally larger than the Garmin Etrex Summit/Vista/Legend/Venture series of devices it has some HUGE advantages over the top of the line ...

Pros: Rugged, full of features, great value

Cons: 8 MB memory is sufficient but could be more

The Bottom Line: For now under $200 you will be hard-pressed to find a unit of this quality with so many features. Definitely recommended

Review: I have had my GPSMAP 76 for about a year and a half now and used it in any possible situation, i.e. on a boat, in the car and while hiking. Since I had previous experience with Garmin GPS products, I knew the quality was hard to beat and this unit was ...

Pros: Color display, compact, high quality, I like just about everything about this unit

Cons: Can't think of anything

The Bottom Line: If you're looking for your first GPSr or to upgrade, this is an excellent unit that should last you a long long time.

Review: I've been wanting a GPS receiver for a while and had been trying to decide which one to buy. Garmin was always at the top of my list since everyone I asked recommended the brand. I didn't really know much about them but after a little research I settled ...

Pros: Large, high resolution screen. Great functionality. Great satellite reception.

Cons: No built-in trip routing functionality.

The Bottom Line: This is a great GPS unit with a lot of bang for the buck. At about the size of a large scientific calculator, it is portable and full of functions.

Review: To quote Gollum and Frodo in the review title, this GPSMap 76S is my favorite toy. I like it because ...

Pros: Accurate, large screen size, floats, waterproof

Cons: When is the color version coming ;-)

The Bottom Line: Simply the best GPS out there no other comes close.

Review: This is a great GPS unit! I use it while boating, kayaking, hiking, fishing, camping and driving. I ...

Pros: WAAS enabled accuracy, excellent screen resolution, rugged case, easy computer interface, plenty of GPS capacity

Cons: somewhat limited uploading capability, somewhat bulky, waypoint labels limited to 8 characters

The Bottom Line: An outstanding value for the money, this super-well designed GPS can find your way and help you find fish, but it is also great for collecting electronic mapping data.

Review: Admittedly I love mapping and maps, but the Garmin 76 is probably my all-time favorite electronic device. It is engineered and built extremely well -- very rugged and with an excellent user interface. Although I haven't used Magellens and other ...

Pros: Accurate. Reliable. Reasonably priced.

Cons: None, really.

The Bottom Line: Excellent choice as a backup to a larger GPS Chartplotter, or as your primary GPS on a small boat. Accurate. Rugged. Reliable.

Review: I own one of each of these models, the second purchased as an upgrade so I could use the older 76 as a backup. The 76 itself replaced a Garmin 48 (another lovable little unit) on my boat. Both were available on-sale for around $200 at the time of ...
