“Solid Product, Nice Features, Would Like More Updated Info”

Tom Tom One 130 

All GPS units map your travel to a distination. This unit tells you when to turn or keep right/left on the freeway. On the freeway it shows the exit number you'll need to take, your estimated time of arrival, travel time, and distance to go. You can choose several voices and languages....

“Poor usability compared to the competition.”

One of my biggest complaints about this GPS is that it does not take advantage of information that it already has. My parents' Garmin automatically updated the time for daylight savings/time zone, and it would also automatically change to night mode (colors) when sunset hours were detected: the TomTom... read full review »

“Drive everywhere ... with hometown confidence.”

Yogi Berra is quoted as having once said,

"If you don't know where you're going, you might end up somewhere else". 

Tomtom is a good and useful tool for heeding his cautionary advice.

I've used mine for almost 3 years and I love it.

See pros and cons list below.

“Tom Tom, like having a backseat driver without the nagging”

Don't get lost again and leave the nagging husband at home! Tom Tom replaced my "hubby hubby". I can leave him and his directions at home and take the new man in my life along. No more complaining while waiting in the car while I browse stores or take a new route home. I took the GPS on a few test trips around winding country roads and have no complaints. For you city folk, I recommend the upgraded device that dictates street names, but for those who just want something to help them get to places unknown, this is a great piece of technology. I love that you can customize the icons, voices, and... read full review »

“TomTom is a versatile user-friendly global monitoring device.”

  The TOM TOM global monitoring device is versatile and easy to use.  My  experience with local driving has been practical, accurate, and humorous.  Tom Tom can speak in a variety of accents and takes nothing for granted.  Upon returning to my car from having had lunch at a restaurant, I started the car's engine.  Before I could change gears,  the TOM TOM assertively reminded me to back out of the parking space before continuing...  The capability the TOM TOM has to change directions is mind-boggling, especially when the car is already in motion.  I've lived too long without this fabulous...

“I couldn't have gotten to my destination without Tom Tom!”

    As a first time user, I was not familiar with the Tom Tom and was unsure of how easy it would be to use it. With a few simple instructions from the easy to read manual, it did not take long at all to become really at ease with how the Tom Tom worked. It gave specific instructions, and spoke very clearly. We were very happy to have the GPS with us on our long trip and will carry it with us whenever we travel to unknown territory.

“Great!!”

I got this for my Dad, he loves it.  It never leaves home without it.  He talks about how easy it is to use.  My mom can use it as well she is not very smart when it comes to electronics, but can use this real easy.  They use it for yard sales a lot.  I am so glad I got this.  It is great for beginners!!

“TomTom, so easy a kid can use it.”

We bought a TomTom when we moved to California, and it has gotten us where we wanted to go, whether it was around town or on long road trips. An excellent device and easy to use.

“Must bite it”

This is definitely a better buy than a Garmin. I tried a Garmin $260 it was worse than this <$100 Tomtom. It is much more user-friendly.
