Great value, quick shipment, well packaged. This is the third NUVI 350 I have purchased. I got one for myself and was so impressed that I got one for a daughter and this one is for another daughter. I like the small size to carry in my pocket. I never take a trip without the NUVI 350. It is easy to use and makes traveling much easier.
Rating: - Helpful tool
It does help, the only problem is that it doesn't stay well on the glass surface.

After 2 years, it will not pickup the satelites. Called Garmin, after trying to reset it they said to send it back for a $200 repair charge. A new one is only $160 on Amazon.
PRO: Like the text to speech & detailed maps. Easy to use. Battery life fair about 3 hours. Nice features & display. It can be set to signal just before it speaks to get your attention. Also, the directions are posted at the top of screen in case you miss the annoucements. We have learned to not rely on just one part of the communications. Sometimes, it tells you to turn but the map arrow shows go straight.
CON: Sometimes it will get you there BUT in a round about way. Once it had us turn a block before the resturant & go around the block to enter from the rear. There was a traffic light with a left turn signal directly in front of the resturant.
Text to Speech often gives you the street name BUT at the location there are only route numbers or vice-verse gives route number & only street name is posted.
Once in Miami, the battery ran low & without warning the screen went black. Connecting the car charger to the unit did not bring it back to life. We had to charge it overnight. Scarely part is this was our first trip to Miami & we were depending on the GPS to get us back to the hotel. The "Recalculating" message given every time you do not follow its instructions will drive you crazy. I wish there was an option to turn it OFF.
OVERALL: It is not a bad unit. I just thought it would be more reliable. I am considering a TOMTOM because of the issues I had with the nuvi 350.

I am disappointed with my GPS. It didn't live up to my expectations based on the numerous reviews I've read. My gadget is always late on it's navigation instructions! Is there a way to speed this up?
