I like this detector
By Thomas Dunham
I've employed respective metal detectors off and on for a good deal of years. While I would surely not classify myself as a hardcore-detecting hobbyist, I do undertake to do it decently when I participate.

One thing I have noticed is that there are a lot of metal-detecting "snobs" out there that love not one thing more than telling you that while your detector is cute, it might as well be a giant turd with earphones equated to theirs! It's weird--I like this sparetime activity because it's dissimilar / not mainstream, but when that stuff happens, it may as well be golf...

Anyway - I'm not into this sparetime activity sufficient to spend $700 - $1500 on a detector, but I do want to get my moneys worth. There are A LOT of reviews on the web for this peculiar detector, and I would say that 1 in 10 were negative, with the rest being very positive. For $200, I gave it a shot. My findings:

The good:

When I received the device, I walked out into my backyard to play around a little, and immediately, with a resounding "DING", found a penny with regards to 4 inches deep. It seems to actually like coin shooting

The discrimination and sensitivity settings work well, and the respective settings (coins, all metal, jewelry, etc...) work reasonably well-- as far a coin shooting, the find normally is precisely what the detector says it is.

I've read a heap of reviews slamming the "pinpoint" feature. Honestly, after I READ THE BOOK and played with it for a couple minutes, I found that it worked rather well.

It seems to work very well down to regarding 8". It may work well beyond that... I actually haven't had the probability yet to hunt anyplace for in truth deep items.

It's very light, and the display crams a lot of usefull stuff into a little area without being confusing.

If you turn it off while you're digging, the batteries last a long, long time.

The bad:

It uses 4 "AA" batteries rather of a 9-volt.

The shaft is a bit on the flimsy side, though it is finelooking easy to stabilize if you desire.

It only has a couple tones - a dull beep for trash or unknown items, and a 'DING!' for coins. Honestly though, after I got applied to them, they were plenty.

It seems to like a more or less slower sweep than most detectors.

*Major Gripe* There is no volume knob. Get with the program guys, that thing is LOUD!

In short:
The bottom line is this - you in truth need to read the book that comes with it and spend an hour getting aquinted with the device for it to in truth work for you. I like it, and for the cash wouldn't think twice in regards to buying another.

Garrett ace 250 is a good machine
By Renaross
Hi, pardon me for my bad english. I purchased this ace 250, is my original metal detector, i found a lot of coins, not gold or silver until now. In my garden, and in sand beach. Is a actually good machine until 18 20 centimeters max (coins). It discrimines well iron from coins, is easy to use, is sensitive, battery have long life, and it tell you precisely proof of target. In sand beach is good too, no problem. It is perfective for detect coins, not the best for observe gold. The pin pointing is good too, you need to exercise to improve your precision, and of course reads the manual and see the dvd, in the original week you will recognise this good machine, his differents sounds. For beginners and not so on, very good metal detector (until 20 centimeters for coins). Good luck!

Fun and easy to use out of the box.
By T. L. Cleveland
It lives up to the recommendations. I am disabled but the light Ace 250 doesn't hold me back. The enclosed video is a immense aid in understanding the LCD panel. It is fun along with outstanding exercise and easy to use. It identifies what is detected rather accurately. If it finds trash, I just keep searching and digging with predictable results.
