Rating:  - Good but dont' try the online upgrade
Purchased the unit for a vacation trip. It worked well and was fun to have along. Fortunately, I didn't try the suggested online software upgrade until after I returned. The unit died right after the upgrade completed. After a 45 minute phone wait, a Garmin service tech recommended I return the unit for replacement. The was two weeks ago and I still haven't received the replacement. Garmin is doing who knows what with it? If some one had told me this story prior to the purchase, I might have ... Read More
Rating:  - Out performs expectations
I have heard so much Hoop-La about this item that I just had to get myself one. WOW!! Now that I have had a chance to ust the CSx i was impressed with it's ability to keep tracking and hold on to satellites even in Alaska's deeply vegitated woodlands and mountain terrain. The CSx performs as good if not better than some higher priced GPS's. Well worth the investment.
Rating: - Great for Geocaching
I love this Garmin GPS. I am happy that I bought this instead of the other one I was looking at. I have had a lot of fun using it for Geocaching. I was using the built in GPS in my phone and found this to be much more reliable.
Rating: - Great GPS
Garmin makes the best GPS, so this is highly recommended. Replacement map cards are a bit expensive.
Rating: - Versatil and accurate
I use my 60CSx for both mapping my deer and turkey hunting areas as well as for autobile trips. I bought the automobile kit because of the small screen. The dash mounts in the kit allow me to position the GPS where it be easily seen.
It meets all of my needs and is very accurate in mapping.
