Garmin nüvi 350 Car GPS Receiver

Pros: Spoken turn-by-turn directions, downloadable content, lots of lookup features
Cons: Sometimes incorrect, sometimes slow, lots of pieces to keep track of

I bought my Garmin Nuvi 350 in February 2007. I'm the kind of guy who can get lost crossing the street, and a GPS seemed like a great way to find my way around without having to constantly stop and ask directions I was going to forget as soon as I heard ...

Pros: great GPS for the price
Cons: like other GPS's, need to spend to upgrade maps

This Garmin has saved my directionally challenged self! I can now go places without the help of my husband without getting lost! Additionally, the features which show restaurants and local places come in really handy when the kids get hungry or just ...

Pros: Small, portable, accurate and lightweight.
Cons: Can take awhile to locate a satellite.

I still think an old fashioned paper map is fine for anyone with half a brain and the willingness unfold one, but if you want to get where you're going without delay or confusion, the Garmin 350 is a great, modern mapping tool. I bought this as a ...

Pros: Eventually gets you from point A to point B
Cons: Map display lacks important pieces of information: direction of turn and name of street.

Ok, I've had the Nuvi 350 for over a year now and would say it partially does its job. That is, it eventually gets you from point A to point B and that's what you want in your GPS device. As a previous reviewer noted though, the speech directions ...

Pros: Compact size, text-to-speech, easy to use, extra features.
Cons: Screen could be brighter, no external volume buttons.

The Garmin Nuvi 350 is in the middle of the pack between the 200 series and 800 series Nuvi GPS units and because of this it may be overlooked. The Garmin Nuvi 350 combines great GPS functionality with a handful of other features such an a currency ...

Pros: Accurate routes. Small in size, great touch screen, talks the street names
Cons: takes about 2-5 mins to connect - everything else is sweet

I was so nervous about buying a Garmin because of all the talk about waiting up to 8 minutes for it to connect to the GPS satalites. Well all I can tell you is that it is basicaly true. Meaning that even if you are outside with absolutley no ...

Pros: It's ability to navigate you to local hotspots such as restaurants, gas stations, etc
Cons: HWY under construction is undetected.

Pros: Easy to Use, Slim design, SD card slot
Cons: Battery life doesn't seem to last long

I have been a long-time traveler who relied mostly on Mapquest to find my way. There were many times that I found myself lost because Mapquest wasn't quite right. Well, not anymore! Thanks to my toy, the Garmin Nuvi, I will never be lost again! I ...

Pros: Very easy to use. Graphical display is terrific. Estimated Arrival time fantastic.
Cons: It didn't know some of the more rural areas even though they were not new.

Bought the Garmin Nuvi 350 before going on three different long trips; San Antonio, St. Louis, and Santa Fe. The first trip was San Antonio so I was still learning what it could do. The feature that I found that was absolutely wonderful being able to ...

Pros: Navigation is great when it chooses to work.
Cons: Two units-both had problems

I purchased a Garmin nuvi 350 in May 2007. The satellites went out while on a long distance trip to the East Coast. We were lost in a rural area and spent a lot of time trying to find someone who could help us get to an interstate. The unit never did ...

Pros: 3-in-1- Navigation, travel assistant, MP3 player WAAS capable Small, light
Cons: Cons: Lack of a volume control. Cost. It is a pricey model. No Bluetooth.

About the size of a pack of cards the Garmin Nuvi 350 is a GPS Navigation system, traveling assistant and a entertainment center all in one. It is small enough to fit in a pocket and light (5.1 ounces) to carry around easily. Combined with detailed maps, ...

Pros: Does a bang up job on highway driving and gets you there like promised!
Cons: Out of date maps maybe, has some issues in city driving.

I bought my hubby one of these for Christmas this year. He travels a lot for work, and we had used on of these in a rental car in Chicago, and we had great fun with it. As luck would have it, we had a spur of the moment trip to DC come up and so we got ...

Pros: Gets you anywhere fast and efficient.
Cons: Expensive.

After having the Garmin nüvi 350 GPS Receiver for approximately one year I do not know how I survived without it. You just type in the address where you want to go and it takes you there, it’s really that simple. The size of the GPS was what first ...

Pros: Preloaded maps, choice of languages, small size, low price, no need to read the manual.
Cons: It sometimes takes awhile to find satellite signals.

We decided to get the Nuvi 350 when we relocated to San Francisco and were looking for apartments. Getting in and out of a city and driving point-to-point on a whim can be quite difficult and you soon get tired of the map printouts. This product came ...

Pros: Finds my locations quicker. Get my more work done real quick.
Cons: Sometimes takes you through the heart of downtown/stop signs/lights

I finally took the plunge and bought a GPS unit. I travel a lot and usually get a GPS with my Rentals. Upon researching for a loooong time I have determined that the Garmin's are the best. Several people that I know have purchased the 340 unit and ...
