 Rating:  - Good, but uses back roads in France...Having read the reviews and seen the benefits of my friend's TomTom in France last year, I went for the Garmin, having read the reviews. Generally, I am very happy with the Garmin but, despite the settings being ok, it kept directing me on C roads between towns in France, when D roads are more suitable; for those unsure of C roads, they are basically a single lane country track, and there are quite a few tractors in France! Despite this, I am happy with the Garmin, although the 2008 European maps are not as up to date as my 2008 AA France road atlas. Rating:  - GARMIN NUVI 250WI brought a Garmin 250W from amazon it arrived within 3 days and was so easy to set up and use I was really suprised we use it all the time now. The other day i lent it to my sister in law she used it and found it so simple now I've got to find one for her Rating: - First time sat nav userI used this straight out of the box....no set up at all required to get going. I am not technical by any means so this was a big plus for me. It is so easy to use and has lots of useful things like points of interest. The only reason this gets 4 stars instead of 5 is that although it has European mapping, it didn't work in the Greek Islands which was one of the reasons I bought it but has all the main european maps. I would still highly recommend this. Rating: - Novice sat nav userI was hostile to the thought of Sat Nav until we tried it. It is very effective for urban driving and is very patient when you don't follow its instructions. The ability to have instant directions in a strange place to a petrol station or supermarket is very useful. This one does work with a heated front windscreen. Rating:  - Beaware of map update prices! Beware! Any map updates ahve to be purchased and are not cheap.Pity QVC didn't warn me!
