Very inaccurate for a GPS
Bought this Ohrex GPS to replace a several-years old Garmin which could no longer be updated (due to low memory) to guide beyond west of the Mississippi River. I was initially attracted to the large screen of the Ohrex model, and the reasonable price, and assumed the electronics would be pretty common between GPS’s these days…As soon as we received the Ohrex GPS, we followed the directions in the manual and went for a drive in our own hometown and a nearby town 15 miles away. Compared to our old Garmin, the accuracy of the Ohrex was pretty bad. We use our GPS mostly when traveling to help us safely negotiate large metropolitan freeway areas when typically, several lanes of traffic are full of other vehicles traveling around 65-70mph. During our initial test of the Ohrex, it sorely missed our city hall address by 5 blocks and took us on a very round-about way to the wrong side of the building which couldn’t be entered due to one-way streets. Had we been traveling in an unfamiliar city, we may have became lost. When driving to a nearby town, the navigational voice said to take a “slight left turn” on the highway approach to that area…I’ve never heard such a command especially when the turn was a 90 deg. left turn. What is a “slight left turn?” When entering the town on a state highway, the Ohrex directed us off that HW (where our shopping address was) and routed us unnecessarily through a tight residential area. I didn’t care for any of that at all. Or that fact that the clock simply would not re-set to the correct local time regardless of which time zone I used for this area. I hate to complain, I really do, but I wouldn’t trust this GPS to take me through an unfamiliar metro area at all. I just ordered a big name GPS through Amazon hoping it will be on par with the older one we can no longer use.

Works great
I am surprised at how well this GPS works. I’m a truck driver and it’s very important to stay on legal truck routes and to not run into a low overpass. So far this GPS has taken me to every place I’ve needed to go and it has routed me around low overpasses. There are a couple of things I don’t like about this GPS, 1) when you want to go to another state you have to re-enter all the data instead of just popping in the state name you have to tell it United States and the state name. That’s a waste of time. I’m sure it’s there but I have yet to find where you can view the overall route before starting out. Ease of use could be better but I’m very pleased with it’s accuracy and for what I paid for it, I’ll deal with the other stuff.

Works Great!
The unit arrived in a very timely manner. Easy set up.There is an awful lot of things to like about this, especially for the price. This unit is one of the very few I found that will accommodate either a car, RV and Truck. When you set it up you can set it for RV/Truck and enter not only length but weight(for weight restricted bridges) and that all important HEIGHT . I tested it yesterday and it did warn me that on my chosen route II had a bridge with a clearance well below my stated height restriction. Very helpful, especially when one encounters unforeseen detours along a chosen route.What I especially like is that if you deviate from the units chosen route it does quickly figure out that you chose a different route and it recalculates from that point. Unlike my Subaru that absolutely insists that you make a U turn and conform to its stated route regardless of what you want.There IS some sort of WINDOWS browser that enables you to do some internet searching presumably through a phone as a data hotspot but I have not tested this.It also plays music and videos if that is of any interest.The only real negatives I found with this unit is 1. It is only Windows based so updating maps might be a problem fo MacONLY users. The company says that there is a way to do it so—just to test the Mac system I checked in with customer service to update my maps and received a IMMEDIATE cordial response that made perfect sense and assured me that based on my order no I had the latest maps. So, Customer service seems to work very well.but I have not tested it yet. 2.The programing does not include a GO HOME button like all the others. Again, there IS a work around by putting your home into the Favorites but in my case there was not enough room to enter the complete address—it works well enough but looks incomplete. I suggest lengthening the data inout to allow for a few more characters and add a Proper GO HOME button.All in all–when you compare this to units that cost far more, this is a good deal.
