Excellent!
I have owned this unit for two years now and use it in a portable case. It gives amazing detail and is easy to read in bright sunlight. The wide beam is very useful for "prospecting" for fish on big flats.

Lousy Customer Service
I am not writing a review for this exact product, but am for a similar one. It failed because of a plastic part that broke. Humminbird will not allow me to purchase a replacement part. The only concession they will make is that if I ship the unit to them they will repair it at approximately 50% of replacement cost. I consider that a bum deal and totally unacceptable. Because of their failure to provide even a minimum level of decent product service I've bought my last Humminbird product.
