Garrett ACE 300 Metal Detector for Adults - Made in the USA - Gold Metal Detector - Waterproof Coil, Plus Accessories

Excellent purchase, very high quality for the price point. Easy to put together and easier to use. I love this thing , so much fun!

This is a great metal detector.

The ACE 300 detector is everything I would expect at this price point. - Good depth and separation, with decent components and features. However, there are a couple of issues. First, the plastic tension screw on the top of the coil doesn't provide enough tension, which causes a constant battle to keep the preferred detecting angle. I tried cranking the screw down to the point that I felt like it would break, then bought a suitable replacement at the hardware store. The second issue is not a problem with the detector itself but with the included headphones. Yes, I realize that headphone quality is subjective, but the included headphones are an obvious downgrade (in my opinion) in quality from those pictured on the box, in ads and on the 'Zon. The headphones in the ad are Garrett's 'Clearsound' versus the 'Treasure Sound' which actually came in the box. They sell separately at a similar price but the Treasure Sound headphones are reminiscent of the type you find in the clearance rack in a 7-Eleven for $4 in 1992. The have a plastic snap-on cover on each earphone that seemingly serve no real purpose other than to display the corporate name, and repeatedly detach from the headphones at the least provocation. I will be replacing theheadphones with a better set ASAP. Is this an earth-shattering deficiency? 'No.' Is it bait-and-switch? Also 'No.' But it needs to be changed or disclosed prior to sale. Garrett is far too established and known in the industry to engage in deceptive practices. The upside is that this is a solid detector and a good backup to my high-end Minelab detector that I can keep at my outdoor worksite for occasional lunchtime use.

Hubby us happy with this one. It meets all his needs

My boyfriend loved his birthday present and loves to go a loom for coins and jewelry under the docks

Ran into a hiccup with the first order of the metal detector I ordered for Christmas. The shipper lost the first one I ordered enroute so I had to re-order. I waited until Christmas was over to re-order. Anyhow, everyone was anxiously awaiting it. I got it assembled a couple nights ago, but didn't have a chance to try it out. My son got home, sees it propped up in the corner and first thing he asks is if I tested it. I told him I didn't have time. So what's he do? He grabs it, turns it on and comes over to my chair and directs it to my knees. It goes off quite loud. He exclaims, "yep it works!!" It detected my titanium knees quite well. Right now we took it to visit my daughters family in Florida. My teenage granddaughter and 4 year old grandson took it out this afternoon and had no problem finding buried items. They live on a mini farm so no shortage of things to find. They had a blast. The beach will be the next stop. Haven't had a chance to really do anything challenging yet. If I have any issues I will revise accordingly. I do have one nit though. It does not come with a full manual. The full manual can be downloaded online. If someone older or not familiar with computers ordered this they probably would be very frustrated.

Great product - found lost wedding ring within 5 minutes of trying out the ACE 300. No real learning curve at all- when I get some time, I’ll read the instruction manual and get more in-depth, to start my budding detectorist career! Very easy to use and I can see this can be very fun and rewarding to use.

Works for whst I need.

Schnelle Lieferung und funktioniert einwandfrei . Für diese Preisklasse ein tolles Gerät.

Satisfecho

Really good quality detector, the kit is perfect for new starters, the only thing missing is the spade and pin pointer. The unit can detect most metals, including gold, silver, aluminum, copper etc. It has a really good depth, way over a foot. So perfect for more deeper digs. It's very comfortable and is very lightweight, it has an adjustable strap. You can also adjust the hight of the detector. The set includes waterproof cover, headphones, coil protector and obviously the detector. The detector is easy to set up and came with a detailed user Manuel that if you have no experiance is very helpful in explaining how to understand and use your detector effectively. The price was brilliant and I would 100 percent recommend.

Very excited to use a metal detector for the first time. Very versatile and a great performer, easy to use and keeps me busy when going out. A great buy.

Un ottimo kit per chi vuole iniziare. Unica cosa, il sensore è estremamente suscettibile alle variazioni elettromagnetiche, quindi usarlo in presenza di cavi dell’alta tensione non è consigliabile.
