Customer Reviews:
So disappointed...great technology but terrible interface.......2007-10-30
This is one of the most disappointing electronic devices I've ever bought. The unit works fine and for getting Grandma from one place to another it is a cute toy. I drive a tractor trailer and if any truckers are considering this unit, just don't. For one thing, the unit will not allow you to select an exit number on a given interstate as a destination. The exits are in the database, it calls off the exits when you have to use one, just doesn't let you find them. Truckstops are listed by interstate# and exit# (not street address) in the guidebooks. Also, very often industrial warehouse sites are not listed by street address and the unit can't find anything without a street number. I now have my old 2002 GarminV with it's outdated maps and impossibly small memory capacity sitting next to the new Cobra so I can use that interface to find exits and plan destination time estimates before moving (the cobra will not display eta times until you get to a spot where your next turn is more than a mile away). Very frustrating. I wonder if there are any parts sharp enough to damage my tire if I drive over it?
It Ain't No Garmin!.......2007-10-06
My Garmin 340C was stolen from my car and I took a chance on the Cobra. It works (sometimes) but software and graphics are far inferior to what I had gotten used to.
On the plus side, some nice features like choice of a category and listing of all in that category in your area. The graphics, if you don't use the 3D version, are fairly good. And it's pretty sensitive in homing in on the satellites, even when you're indoors.
But, the shortcomings leave me disappointed. For openers, when I set it for "home" in my driveway, it puts me on a street 1000' away that doesn't come into my area. So, if I set it with "home" as a destination, I wind up in someone else's driveway.
The Garmin allows you to plug in a destination and when you let it calculate a route, it gives you mileage and an ETA before you start. Not so with the Cobra. Once you start, it will show an ETA but if there's a way to show the mileage to get there, I haven't found it. The Garmin "speaks" all roads you're directed to use. The Cobra "speaks" only Interstates but has a visual display of the names of all. Another annoyance is that the "zoom" feature keeps resetting itself to a larger area of display. May be a software glitch but not fixable by any of their downloads to date. Garmin offers all sorts of language options: Australian woman speaking with Finnish display; German man speaking with Spanish display, etc. But these are really gimmicks and not necessary.
The Cobra is available for somewhat less than the Garmin. And it shows.
Unique features+performance comparable with high end units.......2007-09-13
The GPS with speed camera detection & red light camera location detection helps provide the stimulation like free cup of coffee that you can't buy with other high end one's- shame on them. I bought this not because it was cost effective from reputable web site but because of its unique features (free updates+camera location detection that you can't buy with expensive units. (I did buy the extended warranty just in case).Also, for the info- I also own valentine one. Those 2 keep me good company on the long trips, highways(+285,275...) or new roads. I have NEVER recieved traffic tickets and usually I do not drive crazy.
Now, I can enjoy the roads & beutiful world even more- worry free
I took it back!.......2007-09-10
So, I'm always up for trying new products. The saleswoman tried to talk me out of it, but I decided to give this thing a try anyway, choosing it over a TomTom or a Garmin. Big mistake. It's nice looking, and it purports to have some newer features that other GPS systems at this price range do not have (like speed and red light cameras). However, these features NEVER worked for me, and I happen to know that there are THREE red light cameras at the intersection nearest my home. Not once did this thing catch them.
Another thing: it kept getting me lost! Sometimes the route it suggested was obviously wrong, and if I tried to ignore it, it would repeatedly yell- "PLEASE TURN AROUND!" or something similarly annoying. And if I did miss a turn accidently, and could not immediately stop to give it a chance to reroute, it would freak out and take many minutes before it could recalculate the route.
All things considered, I returned this system within a week. Maybe it was defective. Who knows? But now I am afraid of shelling out another couple of hundred of dollars for another system... So if you want to purchase a gps and get your money's worth, I'd say get one whose name you can trust.
My Review Of The Cobra GPSM 2100.......2007-09-04
It seems to do the job that I wanted it for; although I have not had the cance to put the 2100 through a good road trip. It's a little smaller than I had envisioned, but maybe I'm not a good visionary.

Customer Reviews:
Weather Band reception.......2007-04-26
I just bought one of these. It did not matter what direction I turned it, what postion the antenna was placed, or how much aluminum foil I put on the antenna, the weather station would not come in. Hate to put my safety in the performance of this product.
Storm Alert Radio (Jensen MR-600).......2007-02-16
The item works perfectly if you do not place it near other mechanical devices, i.e. TV, air purifier, elec. clock, etc. Fortunately it hasn't alerted us yet so that will remain to be experienced. You have to turn it a
number of directions until you get the best reception, then leave it in that position.
