Cons: none
solid unit, works really well and fast. ordered it on weekend and got it thursday. very similar to my old (discontinued) one that went down with my boat. An excellent basic unit. seems pretty accurate to me.

BARE BONES - SOLID GPS
Pros: cost effective, solid, bare bones unit
Cons: none
I have used the 72 for the past 8 years and find it to be very user friendly, dependable and field worthy (being dropped on hard ground, in water, fitting in my back pocket). The screen is starting to show lines in it so I purchased the 72H. This unit is comfortable in the hand, quickly refreshing screen and easy to read in direct sunlight. With the ability to zoom the screen in to the 5m scale, I use it for plotting points, measuring distance, and locating general buried facilities positions. I have also used it to navigate to remote northern locations from the air (which any gps can do, but the large screen and ease of use came into play with the vibration and turbulence in a helicopter).

VERSATILE GPS
I bought this GPS for my work with the Canadian Rangers and it works well in the cold and wet environments without alot of unnecessary functions. It does what is promised and was reliable from the start of our outing to the last and at a great value.

FISHING TRIP
Pros: accurate, easy to use, great battery life.
Cons: back lite stays on for only a short time
I recently used the 72H on a fishing trip on Leach Lake, MN. The unit is extremely accurate and easy to use. Battery life was very good. I preloaded my fishing hot spots and marked my home harbor once I was there. We fished a lot at night time and I would like the back lite screen to stay on a litte longer, but that was not a hugh inconvenience. I would highly recommend the unit. The peak fishing and hunting calender is very helpful.

BEST OUTDOOR GPS
Pros: accuracy
Cons: not the most user friendly.
We use this device primarily for geocaching. Accuracy is excellent. We are usually within two or three feet. Compass sometimes seems to go a little haywire but overall, good product.
