User Reviews about Garmin Colorado 300 Bilingual Handheld GPS Unit with North American Maps

Very easy to use (never read manual), and has long battery life. Use professionally and it gets the job done well in rugged conditions. Easy to operate with one hand. Would recommend this unit to a friend and/or buy again. Screen brightness works well for me, although sometimes I need to turn the brightness up while in shaded areas, but really not problem. -- Garmin Colorado 300

Very good for Geocaching. Update your unit as soon as you open the box and you shouldn't have any issues. -- 300

I purchased this GPS for the sole purpose of Geocaching and while I'm sure it will be used for hiking/biking that isn't why I got it. The unit is very easy to use one handed thanks to the control dial. It fits easily and comfortably in my hand. The battery life is good while using Energizer 2450MAH NiMH rechargeable batteries as well as Li-Ion batteries. There are a few things I would like to see changed on this unit. The battery compartment has some flaws mainly the rubber gasket around the case. The gasket had started to come unseated so I contacted customer support. they were very fast and helpful. I asked if I could re-glue the seal without voiding the warranty and was given a go ahead with that. So for the time being that problem has been solved. I also recommend using some clear non conductive silicon grease around the seal to both allow it to slide off easier and give it a bit better water resistance. Lastly the GUI is very nice but I would love to see a few more features added. I would like to be able to separate cache types within the unit and load GPX files individually. On top of that I would like to be able to see the dates that caches were found. On multi-day trips it would help when logging finds on Geocaching.com. Outside of those few issues which I consider to be fairly minor since I could easily fix most on my own I highly recommend this product. -- Very good product but needs some minor modification.
