Magellan Maestro 4000 2008-06-02
I have purchased three Magellan Maestro 4000's for family members and everybody is very happy with them. Not a single malfunction.


Magellan Maestro 4000 2008-05-27
We purchased this GPA for my inlaws, and wanted to learn to use to before we gave it to them. It is a great product! We are also very happy with the seller - we got a good deal, good shipping, and the product was just as we expected! Thanks so much!


Great little unit! 2008-05-27
This is my first GPS. I wanted something simple and easy to use. The 4000 fit my needs perfectly. I received it just in time for my trip to NY and CT. I was not familiar with the highways I would be travelling and needed a navigator. I didn't take any paper maps on this trip. The screen is just the right size and it has excellent clarity. One feature I love is the voice that gives me advance notice of an upcoming turn and the chime that signals I have reached my turn. If I miss my turn it gives me an automatic re-route. When you press the home icon, the GPS will show you the way so you will always be able to make it back to the nest. It works great. I wish I had bought one sooner.

The Magellan performs as advertised and I am very satisfied with it. The commands are very accurate and it calculates the routes in just 5 or 6 seconds.


Be cautious!! Chose a different brand 2008-05-22
I'll keep it brief. Customer service is beyond non-existent!
Bought hand held unit, worked fine in US.
Bought Direct Route EU, software. Would not load on unit.
After 7 months yes 7 MONTHS of emails/letters/ phone calls.
Magellan finally agreed to exchange, but they sent wrong software.
THEY DO NOT CARE, and just give me a run a round AGAIN.
So I have a useless GPS.


review of GPS purchase 6/8/08 2008-07-09
I purchased Magellan Maestro 4000 4.3" GPS through Amazon.com on 6/8/08.
It was shipped from Pavilion Electronics and I received it, in perfect
condition and as advertised, on 6/14/08. I could not be more pleased, either with the merchandise or the service I received.


Had some trouble right out of the box... 2008-06-25
The screen is big (4.3 in.) the graphics are beautiful, the voice commands are very clear, it works very well, this units packs plenty of volume, so it is very easy to drive to your destination without having to look at it. The sensitivity is excellent, as it tunes to satellites within a few seconds.

My only gripe was with accuracy, as it always showed my vehicle's position about 1/2 block BEHIND at all times, it was also very slow re-calculating routes and that was a bit of an annoyance, but it resolved all this issues by installing the new firmware available as a free download at the Magellan site. NOTE: Updates are PC only, no Mac support that I'm aware of. For some reason the battery only lasts about 30-40 minutes, so the power supply cable has to be connected all the time or the battery quits suddenly.

The POI's are VERY limited in this model, so don't even count on them.

I've became accustomed to hearing the street & freeway exits by name with my Garmin and my older Magellan 760 (an earlier unit that was stolen from my car) but the Maestro 4000 does not speak street names, although the unit became very accurate and much faster after the updates. For those of you who like to hear the street names, this unit does not have this feature and it is not upgradable via the firmware.

In general this a very decent unit at a very decent price, nice display & voice, but it is a bare bones basic unit compared to the other Magellan models costing just a few dollars more.


Know the way 2008-06-22
Great GPS device. We took a trip to Austin, TX just after receiving it and was totally impressed. Today's technology is awesome!!


Love the Magellan 2008-06-14
I never owned a gps. My cousin came and we used her's to get around the city. I was sold!! I bought the very same one she has for hubby for Father's day. I'm impressed and can't wait to use it when we travel way up north from Florida.

This was a gift for my college graduation. It has already traveled with me through a few states and has been excellent. Great volume, clear pictures, helpful POIs.
