Garmin 010-01735-10 inReach Explorer+, Handheld Satellite Communicator with Topo Maps and GPS Navigation

Great for peace of mind!!!!

great product. essential for safety and backcountry communication

I do alot of snowmobiling . Most all of my riding is alone in the back country . It took a little bit to figure how to set it up . But its well the investment . I feel safer knowing I can ask for help in the event of needing so. And my wife is able to track my rides . Keeping her aware of my movements .

The product will not turn on or indicate any sign of charging I tested the battery and it shows to have full charge at 4v on both ends I’m 4000 away from home this is frustrating but glad amazon will refund me what happened to quality control this Was new out of the box and I’m out $100 for shipping

Great product I am sure it has saved lives I can see how it would. I feel Garmin should make a new or updated version now that technology is so available and inexpensive it would be handy if it was a touch screen much like a smartphone.

Great device for exploring and flying! Little hard to use - not super intuitive and GUI feels and sounds like its from the late 90s. Just what you would expect from Garmin I suppose! :-) Little on the expensive side for plans. Seems like everyone wants $20 a month for everything these days.

We bought this to track our route while on our sailboat in the Bahamas. While the interface on the device is a little old-fashioned there is an app for phones that is easy to use, and almost everything can be done from the app. We sent messages using the app to our family and friends and they have enjoyed following our progress.

Great technology, lots of features.

What they dont tell you is that you need to pay for a yearly AND monthly subscription to start the device for the first time. The description both on Amazon and on the Garmin website is very misleading about this point. My understanding is that you can suspend the monthly subscription after your first month, but I cant confirm that.

Payed for year subscription went through inreach registration, Device can not locate a GPS signal and stuck on activation waiting for conformation. A Lot of money for a defective product. Calling Garmin on Monday. Garmin Customer service only open Monday-Friday.
