Very happy with this product:
We bought this metal detector for my 87 year-old grandfather. We needed something lightweight and simple to use, but that was still a good quality instrument. It works great and he absolutely loves it.
not good for buried small objects:
Will not pick up a coin or ring if it is buried more than 1/4" in the ground - it will pick up a soda can that is 6" deep. Not a good choice if you are looking for a lost ring, unless you are sure the ring is not buried at all. This would make a good toy for the kids.
Not a good buy:
Bought this for our pre-teen son for a present. The volume/sound went out within a month and the detector needle was overly sensitive. I don't recommend this product.
This is a toy:
Great idea for a gift for a youth. I wanted this unit to locate metal property markers and was very diasappointed in this product. I was unable to find the markers with this product and gave it to my grandchildren to play with. Ended up going to the sporting goods store and buying a different unit for a few extra dollars and it worked great. If you want something to use for a hobby spend a few extra bucks and buy a better unit.
