    I've used others and my Tom Tom One is still the best. No hassles once on route. Easy to set up and put in information. Clear speech, ample directional capability. Only negative is removal from mount somewhat difficult, and mount is just a big suction cup to windshield.

    Happy with this one.
    Aug 2 2008

    It is a very nice one, i got lost and i was desperate, so my only way to go home it was the Tom Tom Gps, i just entered my address and i was guide safetely to home.It is a good one for the price, very ease operation i love the voice intructions so you do not have to check all the time the Gps to see where you are.I like too that if you make a mistake going to the wrong way, the Gps tells you the other alternative.
    Wonderful i will recommend this little one!!!

    Jul 29 2008

    The refurbished TomTom One GPS Navigational System was a very good buy. It looks and operates as good as a new one. The manual is easy to understand and the screen is easy to see and read. I have purchased several refurbished electronic devices and have been very pleased with them. I would definitely recommend this product and definitely recommend this site.

    I picked Tom Tom because it had the LEAST number of bad reviews, and I wanted to pay a little more to get above the cheapest models which gave users the poorest performance.

    My standard had been Magellan, after first using it in a rental car back in the 1990s, but poor reviews have changed my mind about the Magellan models (at least for the lower end units).

    I think you can't go wrong with this Tom Tom series. This model is well-made and easy to set up. I was using this literally right out of the box. I opened it in the parking lot and drove from Daytona Beach to Jacksonville (Florida) without any problems.

    The maps are up-to-date and you get a year of free Tom Tom updates and probably forever use of the user-fixed maps, which you update by linking to your Internet-connected PC via the included USB cable.

    You can customize voices, map colors, points-of-interest, etc.

    I don't know how to tell where the battery indicator is, but I keep it plugged in to the cigarette lighter, so haven't had to worry about battery life yet.

    I did notice a few communities where the map is missing entire streets, but the GPS was straight-on and accurate. I thought that was a strange disconnect, but that is probably the point of the useful user-input capability of the Tom Tom community: you can fix the maps and upload changes for others to benefit from. I imagine mapping is a tall order, considering the many changes (new streets, new neighborhoods, road renovations, etc.) that take place in the US daily. It also has a useful browse function to let you use the device the way you would use a paper map.

    I recommend this unit. It doesn't do street-by-street announcements, but I decided I would find that pretty annoying after awhile, so didn't bother to look for that feature in my choices. The colors are bright (ans there's a great night-view feature, too), the sound is excellent (and you can set it to change volume with acceleration), and it reroutes you immediately if you take a wrong turn.

    The screen is clear but smudges easily. I use the eraser end of a pencil tap the screen: that keeps it clean for me.

    My husband and I ride motorcycles and although this is not designed for a motorcycle, we've actually used it to navigate and it works perfect.

    TOM TOM Navigation System (GPS)
    Jun 22 2008

    I received this product in it's original box and to my surprise it was more than I bargained for. The GPS came with the starter kit already in the box so no need to order one seperately. I immediately tried it out locally around town and it guided me directly to my destination. I also tried taking a different route from the GPS directions and it immediately corrected course within seconds. When I returned home I downloaded the upgrades from the web and added a few extra features such as voice command, traffic cameras, gas stations and a few of my favorite restaraunts. A great product and I highly recommend it to every one who doesn't already have one to purchase one from Overstock.com. If you are anything like me who gets lost getting out of bed this is a must have item.
