    • Good quality..

Very happy with the delivery, price, quality and performance.

    • Excellent starter detector
Size: Ace 200
Purchased for a friend who wanted to get into detecting. Very well made and surprising for the price point. Extremely user friendly and not confusing. I have the AT Pro and the ACE 200 targeted everything I targeted. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of higher end detectors but is an excellent detector to learn on and get the feel of it. If you are just an every now and then hobbyist, this is all you will need. ... show more

    • LCD problems
Size: ACE 250
This little detector is great and easy to use. I took it out the first day I received it and found some metal junk in my backyard so decided to take it to a nearby kid's playground. I managed to find some buried aluminum cans, pieces of wire and also some coins (quarter, dime and two pennies). I was using the all metal mode as suggested by Garrett so I could get accustomed to the tones and sounds associated with each piece of metal. Now everything went well that first day but the problem began the second day when I took it out to the beach. I was excited ready to go and then I turned it on and started to search. Now, it was somewhat cold that day (lower 50s) so I thought that maybe that the sensitivity bar not showing up was because of the temperature, but then noticed the battery indicator was also not showing up. I thought it was simply a low battery but when I used it the previous day it indicated a full battery. Nonetheless I left the beach with nothing and decided to head home where I had some fresh AAs. Before heading home I did remove the batteries, hold down the power button to reset it, and of course turn it off and then back on. I even made sure the batteries were making sufficient contact with the terminals in the battery compartment. The LCD problem was still there. I got home and replaced the batteries with fresh ones and sure enough the missing information on the LCD screen still persisted. I also noticed that the pinpoint feature was touchy when I used it. After frustration I set it aside and then called Garrett. Sure enough there are known "LCD Problems" and they said I should send it in for repair and service. Because of Christmas I won't be able to send it in until January. They require the yellow box unit and also coil so they can make sure it is "matched" when it is worked on and returned. I have yet to decide whether to just send it back to the seller for a refund (paid returned shipping) or send the unit to Garrett for repair. In the end I think the unit is awesome and a good value and I just got a "lemon". The people at Garrett seem very helpful and this little hiccup won't dissuade me from staying with this new hobby. ... show more

    • Met Expectations
Size: Ace 200
For a bottom of the line metal detector, it works great. I did buy a cheap pair of headphones with volume control because the beeps and pings are very loud with no volume control on this metal detector. I, also, bought rechargeable batteries. Highly recommend for a beginner. Thanks!

    • Easy, accurate, fun, and a classy company
Size: ACE 250
Sometimes you can "feel" the extra care a company puts into its products, and the Ace 250 brings a lot of that feeling on. The fit and finish are great, it is extremely lightweight, assembly is super quick and requires no tools, and even the batteries are pre-installed. These are all signs of a well-thought-out tool, not just a toy or a careless next generation iteration of an existing technology. Pull a few pieces from the box, press two rubber washers in place (friction washers for the coil pivot), screw together one plastic bolt (plastic, since by coil and don't want metal!), and screw on the coil cable connector. Then press PWR and you are ready to go! But better yet, watch the very professional video on how to use the Ace first. It isn't full of amazing surprise finds with cheesy actors, rather, it is very much like a military training video, with a professional voice talent carefully enumerating the features and functions of the Ace while the viewer sees a man demonstrate each step or method at what seems to be a public park. I can't tell you how wonderfully straightforward and "clean" this video is, but I suspect the quality comes from Garret's experience with training videos for commercial/industrial products. And the video is specifically for the Ace 250. Also, watch the pin-pointer video; once you get into the field I think you'll quickly see the usefulness of the handheld pin-pointer, I know I'm planning on getting one. As for features, this machine seems to do everything I imagined doing with it and should run over 20 hours on four AA batteries, which makes more sense to me than two 9V batteries like many detectors use. It also has its own speaker, so you don't have to have headphones...you'll likely want headphones with their own volume control, though, but if the speaker is too loud at a public place (or just annoying the rest of the family) you can cover the speaker holes with some tape to muffle the sound. The machine shows type of metal and depth. It lets you set custom detection profiles and sensitivity. It even keeps its memory and settings when turned off, which is important because you'll want to turn it off each time you stop to dig. A "custom profile" is essentially a filter that instructs the machine about what kinds of metals should trigger a sound alert--the display will always indicate any find. Perhaps the best feature of all is the pinpointing. While it doesn't serve the same way as a handheld pin-pointer would during the actual dig, it is invaluable for locating where to dig. Watch the video for instructions, but note that along with the X technique you can also press the pin-point button and do a fine scanning of the small area with the find to get a mental image of the detection circle around the object--your mind will "see" a disc that is "bright" (loud) at the center and fades off at the edges. You can also use a spiral motion you let "decay" into a simple circle and when you can make a circle with the detector's coil that has a perfectly even pin-pointing tone you know that the object is dead center of this circle. Scanning, especially, can be useful for larger, irregularly shaped objects, because your mind is forming a fuzzy image of the object's shape...just don't dig for a buried cable! As for the function of the machine, I could not have imagined it to be this good. It tells you pretty much exactly what is down there and how for down it is. The video says it can take 100 hours to become proficient at picking up on the sounds and indicators, but the truth is after only about 2 hours you'll already be growing a "third eye" for what lies beneath. For example, you quickly come to recognize that short, nearly "phantom" blips are foil wrappers, that having two finds very near one another is not that uncommon, and that large iron objects (say, an old drain cover) may sound like coin-iron-coin rather than just a lot of iron. One thing that is under-emphasized is that detecting is really about digging, or at least scraping. Doing this in a way that doesn't mess up grass, etc., is mentioning in the video, but if you have to travel to get to where you are detecting, be sure to have along a small planting trowel, some sort of dully pointed metal rod for a probe, a heavy nylon brush, a lighter-weight nylon brush, and a jug of water. You'll quickly see why. ... show more
