Magellan - Maestro 3100 GPS Receiver Review Summary

Do you sometimes have trouble navigating the streets? If you do, then you are probably fully aware that a Global Positioning System is the answer to your problems and one budget priced option is the Magellan Maestro 3100 GPS Receiver. This global positioning system is very accurate, easy to use, and produces easily readable maps. It’s a “Great Little Gadget for Finding Your Way Around…Very Accurate”. The Magellan Maestro 3100 GPS Receiver isn’t very sophisticated, however. It doesn’t offer many special features and it is lacking in a few areas. It makes you cancel your present route completely before you can make a change and some of the maps are outdated, earning it a rating as an average GPS Device overall by our reviewers.

The Magellan Maestro 3100 is a great deal for the money. Being one who is not very good with directions, I wanted a GPS system that would be reliable yet not break the bank. Through research, I found this unit, which has proven to be a good choice over the year I've owned it. — The pros of… read full review »

The dang thing turns on every time I start the car unless I unplug it, and then the plug thingy swings to and fro.  It also has a touch screen which won't work with gloves but you can use a pencil eraser. — — My Lowrance GPS (ancient) has a really neat thing where it shows you the… read full review »

The Magellan maestro 3100 gps system is awesome.  We recently took a trip with it.  We got it for Christmas and went 1700 miles with it.  Betty  as my husband refers to the "voice" was polite and an awesome navigator.  It locates the banks and gas stations, motels, restrurants anything you could need.  It will tell you your exact location if you break down, the speed you are going and when you will arrive at your destination.  The one thing I did not like was if you make a wrong turn betty will tell you over and over again to make a u turn you are going the… read full review »

We use this every time we go on vacation and would recommend it to anyone.  We even let other family members use it and they have had no problems either.  I appreciate that it is not as expensive as other systems but works well. Why pay more for extra bells and whistles when this does everything you need it to and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. —… read full review »

Just recently purchased this affordable gps and I am very happy with it. I live in a rural area and was worried about some of the smaller roads being listed, but they are all there. Very accurate and easy to use at a great price. Haven't had to download any new maps… read full review »

This is a great little GPS unit for someone who wants simplicity. Its farily easy to program and easy to read. Great for the price, expecially when most GPS units are around 300 and 400 dollars this one is a bargain. The speaker is loud enough that you can hear even over loud music and give turns in plenty of time. It would be nice to be able to plan a trip with multiple cities but perhaps that will come in time. Overall a good little unit for someone who is on a budget or isnt… read full review »
