Great product by Ted D on amazon.com Jul 4, 2012
Works great out of the box. Because of all the tools and information available, it takes a little getting used to. No proble with the loaded maps. As you approach any major highway intersections, the photo direction that pops up, was a shocker but very ...
 
best navigator yet by picc1 on overstock.com Oct 15, 2011
This is my second Garmin. I LOVE this one!! The large size and it offers more features than my other. The computer generated voice sometimes miss pronounces the street names, but after all it is a computer. It's super easy to use. I've even traveled ...
 
Xlnt GPS great price by timelord on tigerdirect.com Sep 1, 2011
I purchased a refurbished unit to replace an older smaller 4.3 unit from the same company. It was almost less than buying new maps. The 5 inch screen offers safe one glance lane navigation when at speed on the freeway. I find it significantly easier to ...
 
Very Good GPS by Mama Houpe on qvc.com Aug 16, 2011
" Purchased this GPS 7/5/2011 and was told that I would be put on the "Wait List" for up to 45 days. Our family was planning a trip less than 45 days. The unit arrived just in time for our trip. Was very pleased with the performance of the GPS. This ...
 
Great GPS For The Price by Gummby on bestbuy.com Aug 17, 2011
I travel quite frequently for business, and have used this particular Garmin quite a bit. I like the map display & street assist it uses when needing to exit a particular area. It is very quick in recalculating, if you choose another route. It has been ...

If I could I would give it minus 5 stars. by Liz Ann on amazon.com Jul 7, 2012
We bought this Garmin GPS to replace our old Tom Tom GPS. With the Garmin you drive blind most of the time, loses satellite (the Tom Tom does not). The Garmin tells you to turn left a lot (wrong way). Today I put in an address for Baltimore, MD. It could ...
 
Mechanics are poor by saleswoman on bestbuy.com May 16, 2012
The lifetime maps, lifetime updates, lifetime anything is a joke. The lifetime is for the lifetime of the Garmin which in my case was a little over a year. Garmin told me the lifetime is specific to the the serial # of the Garmin so when Garmin is dead ...
 
It may get you to your destination. by Ricksky400 on cnet.com May 7, 2012
The suction cup does not hold up the GPS, I have to remember to lick the thing every time I want to go somewhere, or it will fall off the windshield - that happened when I drove around a turn, and it hit me, I was so surprised I threw it out the window ...
 
Doesn't Have Blue Tooth at All! by particular buyer on qvc.com Feb 12, 2011
" I bought this Garmin nuvi 1450 because of the larger screen and the blue tooth but much to my dismay and frustration, the 1450 doesn't come with blue tooth. QVC failed on the product description of this one! I spent hours uploading the maps and updated ...
 
No THANKS! by jamix018 on walmart.com Jun 30, 2010
I was sooo excited when we got this gps because the one that came installed in my truck needed a $250 updated cd so we thought this gps would be perfect. The only nice thing about it is that it has a 5.0' touch screen. Other than that i dont care for ...

Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Garmin nüvi 1450 5-Inch Portable GPS Navigator
I wanted 5" of map so I disabled the side tabs in settings, very nice option, you can also pick what tab is showing what information from a good selection of options...Bluetooth phone paring was very easy and works great, the noise cancelling is pretty good also on its mic, so your caller can hear you and not road noise...This has given me a broad taste in different segments of gadgets, and a pretty good eye for what works and what does not work...

I had borrowed a friends Tom Tom last year to go to Cape Cod from my home on Maryland's Eastern shore and it not only got me lost several times but could not associate the proper exit, if there were several at the same area...Bravo Garmin! I sure hope your products are the result of American brains and "know how," because you've got one hell of a good product here and all at a fair price...I've already recommended it to my neighbor whom I showed its workings and I'm tellin' ya, they were mightily impressed...

Price was good for a mid-range unit with some high-end features (namely routes), Screen size of 5" Crazy number of units by Garmin makes it hard to work out the best to buy...Please read whatever instructions are available, everyone elses horror stories made me read everything a From our experience we would recommend this device to anyone, we have friends who are going to Florida asked if they could use the GPS...These did show up on the old 255W I had, it had other major problems, though) Overall a HUGE dissapointment...
