Product Description
This is a refurbished GPS. Refurbished generally means that the unit has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the navigator back to like new conditions. Some GPS may contain cosmetic blemishes.
Garmin's nüvi 255W improvesupon its 200-series predecessors by adding top-of-the-line features such as FM traffic updates or MSN Direct content to an entry-level line. But Garmin is also introducing some significant improvements with this new series, like a predictive technology that provides faster satellite lock, a redesigned screen with more information, terrain maps, and an exciting new photo navigation feature. The 255W adds complete maps for North America and Text-to-Speech, so you get turn by turn spoken directions with the real names of streets (e.g. "turn left in 50 feet at Nebraska Way", rather than merely "turn left in 50 feet"). The 255W also offers a wide 4.3-inch (diagonal) screen that displays 70% more of the road around you. [...]

use it up to 7 times a day and it suits my purposes well - only issue i have is there's no option to view the route as text like tom toms have, sometimes making it difficult to give others directions - overall, i like it -

Works great, great price also. This is the third gps I have owned, but the first one that worked properly and was reliable.

I purchased a refurbished one. It was a good deal. This unit is excellent and has all the functions you need. You don't need any more bell and whistle things like radio traffic and all that stuff. One thing you have to keep in mind about buying Garmin GPS is that you better register and update your map right away after you received your product because they don't give you long deadline to do it (it stinks). Also pay extra attention to their map downloading process. It is confusing and if you are not a tech person, you will have problem using alternative methods to download and update the map onto your GPS unit. Make a list of what you have to do first and talk to the tech people.

Garmin has too many models and it was extremely hard to remember one from the next. I admit I ended up buying one that did not meet my requirements! I learned from my mistake. Others please take notes so you do not get confused.
