Lowrance Electronics - iWAY 250C GPS Receiver Review Summary

Traveling into unknown territory is easy nowadays since the invention of Global Positioning Systems and one device that reviewers like very much is the Lowrance Electronics iWAY 250C GPS. One of the best qualities of the Lowrance Electronics iWAY 250C GPS is its ability to quickly reroute its map when you miss a turn and reviewers also like its clear, audible directions. I “Don’t Know How I Traveled Without It” says one reviewer and others seem to agree that this is a very good GPS for mapping and planning a trip. It does require a little more time to learn, but the Lowrance Electronics iWAY 250C GPS is still an excellent GPS Device and it easily earns a stamp of approval from our reviewers.

How much easier this little device has made my travels. Since it's my first gps I have nothing to compare it to except life without one. I no longer worry when traveling about getting lost. My little friend on the dashboard takes me right where I need to go, door to door.

I use it locally for finding an unfamiliar business or doctor, or a new friends home. If I miss a turn she doesn't get angry or frustrated or yell at me. She keeps me calm, and redirects me, as many times as I need to be redirected. Also, I can get eta at any time during my drive. I have used this device on long trips...

I got the Lowrance iWay 250c after reviewing a bunch of others and after buying a completely unsuitable gps from DeLorme.  The DeLorme gave me some idea of things to look for, and so I settled on this one as a good compromise between cost and features.

There are gps units that cost a lot more than this, but I still haven't figured out why I would want to pay the extra since this one gets the job done quite adequately.

Here are some of the things I'm not satisfied with but which I suspect at least some of the higher priced ones suffer from as well:

  • It sometimes takes a long time for the unit to find...

My husband brought this along on our last trip to Seattle and quite honestly I made fun of him.  I of course had Mapquested my directions.  Well, let me tell you in Seattle, in the middle of traffic, Mapquest isn't the most convenient thing to have.  Like I could even try to read!!!  However, our GPS (which my husband named Lola) was a lifesaver.  Not only did she give me exact directions but when I couldn't get over in time for an exit she would simply reroute us.  She also plays music that my kids download on her.  We don't leave on a road trip with out her.

I have always used Mapquest but have to carry a canvas bag for all of the various places we go.  We live in a small community and frequently travel several hundred miles to Western Oregon for business and personal trips.  Several of our friends live in hard to find places.  With the I-way, I can still watch the road for the streets while "she" is telling me the turn by turn directions.  I do not get lost anymore.  My husband asked why I wanted one and last week in Portland he was glad that we had it.  Great unit.

I love my Lowerance iWay 250C.  If you happen to go through a interference moment while in a tunnel driving, it will list the directions on the screen so you will not miss a beat.  I have pictures and music added to my gps. 

There are different levels in which you can, have your gps respond to you.  I like mines to speak fast because I drive fast!!! (please do not speed it is not safe).

I love it!!!
