 90% really like, but.... September 14, 2007

GPS great....manual very explicit......easy to understand and follow.
However, Page vi of owners manual includes an optional "US A/C, PC Adapter", which is not available.
Had to purchase an additional "USB Data Card Programmer" to transfer MapSource data to the required data card.

I liked this GPS so much that I've purchased two in the last six months. It has a lot of features and is easy to use. This model also has the largest screen for the price that I could find. The only drawback is that it doesn't directly interface with a PC. The Garmin Blue Charts are good but not cheap. All in all I think it's a "best value" type unit.
Great Product.....Great Price! May 25, 2007

I looked at a number of ChartPlotters before I decided to purchase the Garmin 172C from Amazon.com. I was very happy with the price, especially after hunting around for the best price around. Amazon beat everyone else hands down. And a "New Product" at that.
I am very happy with the ease of installation, and the internal antenna feature. I have not yet used the fish finding feature, however I plan to purchase the transcom and other associated pieces to use this feature as well.
I say, "Buy this product" if you are looking for a unit with it's sort of features (portable, internal antenna, etc). I'm glad that I did.
