Really pleased with the 250W

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2008
Review: The other reviewers did a great job and I pretty much agree with their comments. I was impressed with its accuracy and speed. It really is a functional device. It takes the guesswork out of trying to find a Starbucks in a new area. I like that.

Garmin Nuvi 250 Car Gps Reciever

Review: I Am Constantly Getting Lost. It Doesn't Matter Where I Go . The Garmin Nuvi Car Gps Helps Me Find My Way. It Gives Turn By Turn Voice Directions That Are Easy To Understand. I Needed This Years Ago It Would Have Saved Me Time And Gas Money.

Great first GPS

Date of Review:  Oct 15, 2009
Review: I've had the Garmin nuvi 250 GPS for about a year. I love that it is small in size and lightweight. It is really easy to use; no confusing menus. Sometimes it gives strange directions, like having you drive around a block and then back the way you...

Good basic unit

Date of Review:  Nov 5, 2009
