4 out of 5 stars   Saved us in France

Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 275T North America & Europe GPS Navigator w/ Bluetooth & Lifetime Traffic (GRNUVI275T)
Pros: Simple Controls, Compact, Acquires Satellites Quickly, Easy Menus, Reliable Performance, Easy To Read
Cons:
Other Comments: Purchased for summer trip to France. Used in the Loire, Brittany and Normandy without a hitch. Can sometimes take you through 1 lane roads that seem to lead to nowhere, but always got to where I intended. Led us astray once when we used the POI menu to find a location instead of programming acutal address. That function is cumbersome. Sometimes the spoken direction is difficult to follow-best to look at the hightlighted route on screen. If we had relied on our detailed Michelin map there would have been a lot of unhappiness. This Garmin was well worth the price.

2 out of 5 stars   Look elsewhere for an Europe GPS

Review submitted for Garmin nuvi 275T North America & Europe GPS Navigator w/ Bluetooth & Lifetime Traffic (GRNUVI275T)
Pros: Acquires Satellites Quickly, Compact, Easy Menus, Easy To Read
Cons: Inaccurate
Other Comments: I bought the Garmin nuvi 275T a few weeks ago for a trip to Europe. I drove through four countries (Germany, Czeck Republic, Slovakia, and Austria). The GPS always took me to my hotels correctly. The one thing that really annoyed me (and I think it is a program bug) was that at five times during my trip this device took me off a major highway, made me drive on narrow, deserted and sometimes dangerous secondary roads for dozens of kilometers and then would take me back to the same highway again. The last time it did this, I was heading from Salzburg (border of Austria and Germany) to the Munich airport. I didn't have any time to waste because I had the flight back home to catch. After entering Germany and driving thirty minutes on a great autobahn, the GPS took me to a two-way secondary road full of curves and trucks for about one hundred kilometers before taking me to the autobahn that I was before. I almost killed my wife and me trying to pass the slow trucks in order to get to the airport on time. The trip took two and a half hours and was very stressful. Upon getting home, I checked on google maps the same itinerary. The trip should have taken one and a half hours instead and used only major highways. I did check the settings on the GPS from the beginning and it was supposed to use highways and take the quickest routes. If buying a GPS for Europe, I would suggest that you take a look at other brands or wait until Garmin fixes this major glitch.

Other Comments: Replaced an older model, and found this one to be good as the last, however I found the screen was not as responsive and the "voice" was not as loud / not loud enough. Loved that it has US and Europe Maps.
