    4 of 5 Works OK Saturday, October 03, 2009
    Mike from San Antonio, TX  

    So I received the GPS in what looked like a new box with all items needed to go. After a couple of weeks my only complaint is that the screen changes color while driving. It just starts flashing the map in different colors. Other than that the product has been great.

    1 of 5 Could be good if everything was shipped Monday, July 06, 2009
    Joe from Greenwood, Indiana  
    I've ordered several items from BUY.COM and their shipping is fast, the GPS looked BRAND new and it could be the best one in the world. You would think any company would do anything they could to keep a customer happy in this economy. WRONG.... Except, the CD, (which was to be included), was not shipped. Now I have to return this GPS so I'll never know how good it works. Customer service at BUY.COM gave a phone number for TOM TOM but it is not a working number. So, I ordered it, paid for it, customer service can't help me and now it is my problem to send EVERYTHING back. On top of all this, I won't have a GPS for my vacation which was the entire reason I ordered this one. Thanks BUY.COM and TOM TOM.

    4 of 5 Handy GPS Monday, June 01, 2009
    Hrishi from Dayton Ohio  
    Very good in use. Fast in calculating and recalculating routes. I am pretty much happy with my purchase. Only disadvantage I see is that you cannot save routes on the computer in a text file and upload to the GPS. You will have to type out all the way points co-ordinates.

    Absolutely awesome! With no sense of direction, I use the tomtom all of the time and it's user friendly. The tomtom was delivered within 5 days in perfect condition. At half the price of a new one this is the best deal ever!

    4 of 5 Tomtom Support refused to update my map Wednesday, March 25, 2009
    Dr.J from MI  
    Got the unit yesterday and played with it a bit. happy to see what I have in hand. however, when I called Tomtom support to request a updated map (as some suggested in reviews here), he asked for promotion code (which I don't have, not in package at least). Anyone know if I am entitled for this map update? it took out one star because of this.

    5 of 5 All you need and nothing you don't! Wednesday, February 25, 2009
    A Customer from Grenloch, NJ  
    Bought this after researching several brands online and in stores. Refurbished price on Buy.com was hands down the best. Easy to set up and intall out of the box on Windows XP and Vista x64 (though on Vista, had to unplug and replug and then recognized and installed without input from me.) Software simple to use. Lots of functionality. I like the Bluetooth phone compatibility and the map updates. Accurate and fast. All you really could ask for and about $150 cheaper than brand new or competitors with same functions. I would actually consider skipping the factory nav system on my next car (usually $1500-2000) getting one of these instead.

    5 of 5 Very impressed with Tomtom 720, Best GPS i've used Thursday, January 29, 2009
    Eli from Jackson, MS  
    I bought this GPS for my fiance' because she literally has no sense of direction.. I had bought her the nokia 500 because of the low price with all the features, but it didn't perform well at all. It would give you out of the way routes, want you to take exits and then get back on, even take gravel roads when HIGHWAY ONLY was selected. So I sent it back to Buy.com without any problem and luckily I caught this GREAT deal.. The tomtom 720 has all the features you could imagine and then some. You can tell it's very high quality and best of all it gives EXCEPTIONAL directions. Now I feel very confident when my fiance' goes somewhere new because I know the tomtom 720 can actually get her there Correctly.

    5 of 5 Great GPS and excellent value Wednesday, January 07, 2009
    Sean from Brooklyn, NY  
    The TomTom GO 720 is an excellent product. I purchased this for my parents for Christmas and at first they were a bit skeptical. I went ahead and set everything up for them and was amazed at how easy it was. The only thing that prevented the Tom Tom from working right out of the box was the window mount. My parents have 2 mini vans, and the mount seemed to obstruct the view of the road and be too far away for their aging eyes. This was easily remedied with the purchase of a bean bag dash mounting system, however I had to buy it at Bestbuy and paid double what I saw the same dashboard mount going for on buy.com (so be warned!). The text to speech voices are pretty good, they get the names pronunciation wrong sometimes, but overall that feature is fantastic. My parents left me a voicemail the other day raving about the Tom Tom. They went to a B&B way up in the middle of nowhere and the GPS was able to give them a shortcut there through streets that didn't have any names or signposts. They also loved the estimated time to destination feature as they had a good sense of when they would actually arrive. They are so happy! The display and internal speaker are both very effective. I think this was a great purchase and was happy that the folks that it was a great gift, maybe your parents would like it too!

    4 of 5 Overall Good Sunday, January 04, 2009
    A Customer from Columbus, OH  
    I actually bought this as a gift. Of course the main function of this was as a GPS, which seems to work very well. I am told much faster than Garmin. The only bummer was we couldn't get the bluetooth to work, it was all static. Other than that, nice GPS.

    3 of 5 Do your research on the TomTom user websites befor Saturday, January 03, 2009
    A Customer from Rhinelander Wisconsin  
    I'm actually still pleased with the TomTom Go720, but there were a few things that fall under the buyer beware category. My new TomTom functions well right out of the box, but when I connected it to TomTom Home for updates, I was informed that my updates were expired. ?!? So much for the advertised "Futureproof". Sure there is still the user input changes, that can still be downloaded, but for a trusted update, it will require tom tom to verify the changes. The route directions are not a function of the output through the car speakers using the FM transmitter, and the hands-free bluetooth only works through the unit's built in speaker as well. After researching this "problem" on the web, it appears that these functions were taken away with a software upgrade from TomTom. It was almost like going to a McD's and ordering a Big Mac, and the girl at the counter came back with a quarter-pounder and said that's what they were offering for what you paid now.

    5 of 5 Best Choice Possible Monday, December 29, 2008
    Steve from Sewell, NJ  
    I borrowed a friend of mines GO720 to take a trip to boston from New Jersey. Never used a GPS before and it worked flawless. Decided when returning that I should buy one of these so my wife ended up picking one up for me at Sam's but it was the wrong make and model. She bought me a Garmin 720 by accident so I decided to try it since she brought it home anyway. The Garmin is no comparison in my mind to the Tom Tom I used going to Boston. The Garmin was slow to react when turning keeping up with what I was doing and also the voice giving directions was not very clear. Also you only had two voice choices unlike the Tom Tom. So I made her bring it back and I bought the GO720 from Buy.com. which was my original first choice. The refurb unit looked brand new out of the box and works like new. You couldn't tell the difference between a new one and this refurb if you had them side by side. I couldn't be more satisfied with the product, price and service. I highly recommend the GO720 product and buy.com's service and price which is unbeatable. You can't go wrong.

    2 of 5 TomTom GO 720, not as good as I had hoped for. Thursday, December 25, 2008
    HB from Dallas, Texas  
    I purchased the TomTom GO 720 and unfortunately I had previously used a Magellan Maestro 4000 that my dad has and the TomTom does not compare with the Magellan in my opinion. The navigational directions from the TomTom and information are not nearly as good as the Magellan and is not as user friendly from the experience I have had. The Bluetooth ability with my phone is a nice feature and I may have been happier with the TomTom if I hadn't previously used the Magellan.

    5 of 5 Very satisfied with this purchase Monday, December 22, 2008
    Laurie from Sacramento, CA  
    I have to admit to being directionally challenged. Left to my own sense of direction, if I'm supposed to turn right, I will invariably turn left. This device has been fantastic. It has found alternate routes for me that have been more convenient than my usual chosen paths. The volume is good and loud. The maps I've encountered have all been accurate and up to date. The simplicity of updating the device with map "fixes" submitted by other TomTom users is great. There isn't much of a learning curve at all getting started with this device. The price couldn't be beat, either. If I didn't know it was refurbished, I wouldn't have guessed it to be, either.

    4 of 5 TomTom GO 720, Bracketron 100 donut, Hockey Puck s Saturday, December 20, 2008
    Marty Potts from East Peoria, IL  
    Buy.com-no tax, free shipping, refurbished $159 GO 720 4.3" GPS appears brand new but w/only a 6 mo instead of the 1 yr warranty. All functions work!! Of course I had to hookup to computer to get latest 8.300 maps. I like using lat/long coords for destination (Geo-caching), as well as street/hwy intersections, or center of cities. I'm a bit disappointed that a 20 yr old hwy exit/entrance I use all the time is missing on the most recent map (8.300), and my correction of it is a catagory that requires at least a month of review by the mapmaker before it may showup. Also 5 yr old "Wildlife Prairie State Park" in IL wasn't listed, but my map correction of it was accepted. The Bluetooth hands off cell phone connection is nice, but my download of my phone book to TomTom doesn't have names, only #'s, so the phone book is useless. TomTom support said I would have to go to a 7.xxx map version to have phone book names. Hopefully 8.000 will soon come out w/a fix update. I velcroed a $1.49 Dunham Sports hockey puck to the Nav-Mat dash donut so that the very short GO 720 windshield suction cup bracket would work. The suction cup holds very well to the hockey puck surface and allows the GO 720 to be vertical to the donut, and still have room enough for the 12 volt power cord connector. After 30 days any new map versions will cost $50 or more ): The battery only lasts about 1.5 hrs and the voice apparently deactivates 1st. I should qualify my review by saying this is my 1st car GPS (I have used a handheld Magellen Meridian Gold and Verizon cell phone). My bifocals make the 4.3" screen a bit out of focus. A 7" screen would be more suitable for me. My fat fingers also have a hard time hitting the proper touch key. I'd still recommend the refurbished GO 720 unless other makers maps are more accurate and reliable.

    I fully charge for several times, I found the battery life is shorter than what I expect. Even you are charging it, the power turn off automaticlly. I do not know because the battery do not have enough power to operate the unit or what ? Overall, I feel you pay what you got !

    5 of 5 Terrific Value Wednesday, December 17, 2008
    Ron from Maine  
    The product description of this GPS unit doesn't anywhere near do it justice--I was ecstatic to find features like being able to follow a route onscreen via a fast forward function, or pressing a button and getting an exact description of where you are and nearby landmarks by which to identify it, in addition to an arrow on a map (so useful if asking someone to meet you!), being able to locate positions via latitude and longitude coordinates, being able to load photos and use it as a photo display--all easily accessible via intuitive touch screen menus. And it located itself inside my house or car within 30 seconds or so. Great Product!

    5 of 5 Awesome Deal Friday, December 12, 2008
    John from Orem Utah  
    This is my first navigation system, my dad has the same one and paid nearly twice what I did. Needless to say he is not happy with that but also loves the product. I purchased it as a refurbished item and I only know that because that is the way it was listed. Otherwise I can't tell. Works right out of the box. The ability to play music through the stereo via the fm transmitter and MP3 player while being fed consistent and accurate directions to your destination is wonderful. The feature that brings this product right up to the top of the line is the Blue Tooth capability of pairing with your cell phone. The calls are crystal clear on both ends. You can dial from the unit, set up the unit to automatically answer the phone while you are listening to your music, WHILE you are getting your directions. During both a call and while verbal directions are being given the music is paused and picks right back up where it left off prior to the call or directive. You miss nothing! While on a call, your attention is still brought to the monitor by a series of beeps that alert you to an upcoming turn. Again, you miss NOTHING! Navigating through the menus is quick and painless. Overall, I am very satisfied with this product and would highly recomend it...especially at the price for which I bought it at. >$160 including s/h. happy shopping!

    4 of 5 Good GPS Tuesday, December 09, 2008
    Mark Lu from Texas  
    I found the quality of the product was very good. I did noticed the text to speech (computer voice only) is a bit garbled when you use the feature of announcing the street names during travel. Also the FM transmitter feature is not very good. The sound is noisy and cuts in and out. I tried several different locations for the unit, but it did not help. But otherwise the GPS is really good.

    A Customer from Corte Madera CA  
    The product works as advertised, but the maps I downloaded are not current for my location. Also the lastest version of the Tom Tom software won't run on Vista 64, so I have to run on an older version which is probably why the maps aren't current.

    Bill Taylor from San Diego, CA  
    This was a screaming good deal for this level of GPS nav. It has all the bells anfd whistles for a great price. Caution though: Make sure you contact Tom Tom support by phone to get the latest maps. You're entitled to one free map upgrade but the PC software update package it comes with doesn't get it for you (you have to call support and provide proof of purchase).

    I purchased the refurbished TomTom Go 720 for my 19 yr old daughter. It came packaged as if it were brand new, we could not tell it was refurbished. The TomTom was very easy to use, she was able to set it up and use it for a trip the 1st day. It really is ready to use right out of the box. I will definately purchase from buy.com again!

    5 of 5 Performs like a GPS at 2-3x the price! Saturday, November 22, 2008
    Brian from Huntington, VT  
    Wow - very impressed. Got this for my wife's birthday and now I'm asking for one for Christmas. It's hard to think of many improvements - started working right out of the box, navigation excellent, every POI we've wanted so far (stores, restaurants etc.), intuitive interface, good computer voice pronunciation of streets etc. On top of that, it turns out to be the best Bluetooth phone device we've used - old ones are out the window. Pairing took a little bit of work but now the TomTom announces "found Motorola phone" as soon as we step into the car. Calls are taken with a single touch and made with 2-3 touches on the screen. Phone is never removed from the purse/pocket and it doesn't sound like a speakerphone at all. An absolute steal at $159 including shipping! Off to investigate the iPod feature I didn't know it had :-)

    5 of 5 Great with lots of Options Tuesday, October 14, 2008
    Gary fME from Hallowell, ME  
    The 720 is my third GPS. It's quick to work; accurate for locations; and loaded with customizable options. One must understand how to use it since there are so many options and variables that could seem to be problems. Read the Manual before seriously using it. Then, turn it on and play for a while while someone drives. Have used the phone hook up; the FM transmitter; customized the screen beginning and end messages; talked to it and listened to it play Debussy's Images. What more can I ask of a robot? It even found a Walmart late one night in Burlington, VT. so we could avoid a traffic jam and get a little nap. Really enjoy it's silent recalculation of route when we make a mistake.

    4 of 5 I like it Thursday, July 24, 2008
    A Customer from Houston Tx  
    I got this for my wife since she has no sense of direction, When she says turn left I go right and that works about 75% of the time but god help me the other 25%. It comes with a usb docking/charging station great for updates and downloads. It will get you where you are going but the map software at least so far in the U.S. is off by about 50 feet so you have to look for the address. It also has the car charger/power cord and the windshield mount that works great. The battery is ok they say 5 hours but unless the battery saver is on for long trips I doubt that it is more than a few hours around town. We have it plugged in all the time in the car anyway. The screen is ok but the Garmin is brighter. the touch screen is sensitive and works quick with just a touch. It finds sat's really fast and recalulates in about 3 seconds if you miss a turn. Tom Tom has a lot more software and other useful stuff that you can get on the internet than Garmin it is also more easily customized. You can put pictures and mps's on an sd card and play music through your fm car radio it also has built in bluetooth for hands free phone we have 3 cells synched to it. We are looking for a new house closer to my wifes work and input about 10 houses we wanted to look at and Tom Tom took us right to them most enjoyable ride with my wife in the car and looking for an address I have ever had. this unit will do what you need and it has lots of stuff you can use most of it free. It also has voice input for addresses but so far I have not gotten it to work very well, maybe if I use a British accent.

    4 of 5 My Favourite GPS with a problem I didn't wish for Friday, July 18, 2008
    drajaygeorge from Minneapolis - Saint Paul, MN  
    I throughly used about 7 other GPS devices before I decided on buying this. The GO 720 is very easy to use and will sometimes leave you deeply impressed by the smart features it has. It looks great with its sleek screen and the elegant form. It shows you water bodies as indents on the sides, has a day and night mode for the maps. The lighting of the LCD changes with light exposure. Smarter features include -Bluetooth connectivity to your phone, so that you make calls through the GPS. -When finding POI(Point of Interest), you can call the place directly with a touch of a button since the number shows up with a CALL button next to it -You can record voices of yourself or a friend and have this voice be the navigation voice. (I had my friend record his commands in our local language) -Pair to your FM radio so that you can hear the command on your car speakers -MP3s can be played -SD card slot -BEST Feature : Text to Speech. Having the GPS read out the names of streets for you is the best thing ever. You dont have to look at the device..just focus on the road. However, when I was in downtown one time...the device went nuts. It couldn't locate itself and the graphic just kept showing my car floating on the roads. I was getting voice commands during this but I didnt know if they were right because it had lost its signal. It may have been due to the tall buildings...but I wasn't happy when it happened. This has happened only ONCE.I use it everyday and it is everything I expected it to be. The main thing to look for in a GPS is its Navigation Ability and this Go720 is killer at it. It calculates in microseconds and takes you the right way to your destination. You can choose the way you want to go too (eg:choose to eliminate a freeway). It may miss some roadblocks. This can be annoying. But, you can just keep going..and it will reroute you. YOu can even record the roadblock easily with 2 clicks, so that it doesn't make the mistake again. The TOMTOM is superb compared to a Garmin because of its user friendly and less annoying nature. This Go 720 though has everything you need and more. You'll love it.

    A Customer from San Antonio, TX  
    This was my first G.P.S system purchase. After doing some research I found that this product is the best in the market for the price money offered by buy.com. Easy to setup, clear instructions. Love the mp3 throught FM transmission. I usually put instrunctions over FM transmission.

    5 of 5 Excellent value and top performance Thursday, June 26, 2008
    A Customer from Omaha, NE  
    A great GPS. I get many hours usage time so I don't understand the comment below or 40 minutes. Good software, fast re-calculations. Slim body. I used this in Germany (with a Western Europe map on Sd card) also this Spring and it was spot on every time.

    5 of 5 Very nice GPS Monday, June 23, 2008
    Tod from Dallas, Texas  
    The GPS is very intuitive and easy to use. I had no problem figuring out the basic functions without having to refer to the manual. It connected quickly and easily to my PC and downloaded updates without a hitch. The second day I owned it the unit directed me easily around a traffic jam. Even though I was somewhat familiar with the area, it took me on a much quicker router than I knew existed. This is my first GPS so I don't have anything to compare it to, but it has fully met my needs.
