Safety In Speech

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2009
The Bottom Line: While Magellan couldn't get everything quite polished, they did try to get everything into this unit.
Review: A friend of mine, eager to show off his new toy, recently gave me a few days with his new Magellan Maestro 4250. As I have said before, most of these GPS units come with the same standard features and it is really the presentation of those features...

WITH MAGELLAN MAESTRO 4250 - YOU HAVE ARRIVED

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: We LOVE the Magellan Maestro 4250! 
Review: I have wanted to buy a GPS for some time now, but how do you know what to purchase?  I started out shopping for a Garmon, but purchased the Magellan Maestro 4250 after comparing features and reading product reviews. 

I am a satisfied member...

Love it but minor glitches

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2009
The Bottom Line: awesome unit, some glitches, but we love it.
Review: I got this GPS for my hubby for his birthday and he was so thrilled.  I got it on Amazon for a great deal after doing a lot of research.  This model has a very nice large screen and a load of awesome features.  We have so far used the regular POI...

Nice features fro the price

Date of Review:  Aug 13, 2008
The Bottom Line: Buy it if you have a great price like 250$. You won't have all those feature in a Garmin for that price.
Review: I bought this GPS just before going on a 3500 km trip around the Gaspesia region in the Province of Quebec in Canada. Had no time to study all the features but it was very easy to learn. I was already familiar with a Garmin Nuvi before.

Pretty cool GPS but still gonna return it...

Date of Review:  Jul 15, 2008
Review: Well, I bought this from Costco for 300$ for a road trip from Ottawa Ontario to Baltimore MD. It worked quite well most of the time and the voice recognition was better than expected. Routing and rerouting was done reasonably fast and the signal was...

BUYERS BEWARE******

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: I would not recommend this product. It and it's company is not reliable.
Review: THIS COMPANY IS NOT ONE YOU WANT TO BUY FROM OR DEAL WITH! I bought a brand new gps online, and after I received it, it malfunctioned on the 2nd day of having it! It was stuck on a settings screen—unable to be used. I tried to reset it, but it was...

Don't buy

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2008
Review: Bought it in February 2008, didn't use it until June 2008. It broke within 3 weeks. Won't charge. Have to send it back for repairs. I'm buying a Garmin c340 for about $300 less.

Nice unit but comes with old maps

Date of Review:  Oct 2, 2008
Review: The unit itself if nice, but then I noticed it comes with 2007 maps and newer 2008/2009 maps are available. I called and will be getting the new maps "free" but still have to pay $10 shipping. That is much less than the $80 the maps would cost, but...

I had it for less than 4 months when the screen went black.  I could hear the voice & I could touch the screen to interact with it, but I couldn't see anything!
