DOES NOT FIT 1390 LMT

Pros: cheap price
Cons: can't be used..does not fit

We ordered the Nuvi 1390LMT as a gift for our daughter and decided to also order from the accesories available for this unit the 13XX leather case. After opening both Christmas morning she was not able to fit the GPS into this case. Although it was an excellent price it was a waste of money as it can't be used with this particular model of Nuvi.

[Ed. note: We made that case specifically for the 13xx series. It fits, but its a very tight fit and some people think it doesn't work. After a few uses it stretches out and works perfectly. The material that holds it together is nylon so it stretches easily and does fit the unit.]

CASE FOR 1370

Pros: good price, sipping reasonable
Cons: little bit too tight

Shipping was OK as planned. The price is reasonable. However, the case is too tight. I hope that using it, it would strech it out.

This was advertised as a case for a Nuvi 1370 but it is far too small. Not worth the trouble sending it back.

LEATHER CASE

Pros: great price

Bought this case to protect my new 1370T Nuvi GPS. Fit is extremely snug when I first got it, but after a week or so, it seems to be loosening up and it is easier to remove the unit from the case. I did not need to stretch it out as other commenters have noted, just put the GPS in, and it has streched it out and now fits fine. Not sure if it is actually leather though....

Good case for the price !

JUNK SLIP CASE

Pros: none
Cons: utterly useless

Well made but useless. It certainly wasn't made for the Nuvi 1390, despite gpscity's ads. Even if you could put the GPS into the case without breaking something, you'd never get it out. Even after serious efforts to stretch the case a bit, it was not usable. Very disappointing.

GARMIN NUVI LEATHER SLIP CASE

Pros: ok leather
Cons: too small for a 3.5

This is not a case that was made for, nor should it be sold for the Nuvi. I believe these were for the IQue or Nuvi Phone not GPS. This case does not allow for the Nuvi to "slip" in and out. It is terribly tight to the point that damage will eventually occur to your 4.5" Nuvi. I will not use this for my 4.5" Nuvi a waste of money.

NOT A BAD CASE FOR THE PRICE

Pros: slimness, price, decent quality
Cons: leather too narrow 2 properly protect sides of gps

The case is a bit snug but it's relatively easy to take out if you grab the sides and wriggle it back and forth as you pull out. The material is fine and I like the slimness of it. My major issue is the width of the case it's a little bit narrower than my garmin 1390 so boh sides of the gps stick out a bit and aren't protected by the leather itself. There is some protection offered for the sides by the elastic material however. If you plan on storing it in the glovebox, I'd recommend it. However if you plan on putting under the seat or being a little rough with it, I would look for something with more protection.

Recommend? NO OPINION

GOOD DEAL

This case was designed for the 13xx series. (actually I think its from an older slim series.) I am using it on a Garmin 255w and it works fine. It is a bit tight, but does work. For a thinner unit like the 13xx series it should work even beter.

Fro the price ($3.95) It was a great deal.

EXCELLENT CASE

Pros: tough to beat the price!
Cons: none

I liked this case so much (see my previous review dated 13 FEB) that I bought a second one which I intend to cut a couple of slits in so that it will fit on my belt when walking and as a backup in the event I lose my first one. When stretched as previously noted I have no difficulty whatsoever in either putting my 2360 in the case or extracting it. I prefer to have the On/Off Switch, the USB Slot and the microSD slot covered as protection against the entry of foreign debris when the unit is in my pocket etc. I have not had any issues with the unit turning On whilst slipping it in or out of the case.

NUVI 13XX LEATHER SLIP CASE

Pros: good quality and an unbeatable price.
Cons: none

I am very pleased with my Slip Case. As noted by others, it is tight to start with however, I cut strips of cardboard and inserted them in the case until I had it stretched to 1 1/2 inches. I left it for 36 hrs and it now fits my Nuvi 2360LMT perfectly.

GARMIN NUVI 13XX LEATHER SLIP CASE

Pros: compact, high quality leather, tight fit
Cons: may fit too tight for some

I needed a compact case to protect my Garmin nuvi 1370T from scratches while inside a gadget bag. This Garmin case, originally designed for the iQue 3600, is a very tight fit as noted by other reviewers. It is tight enough to keep the GPS from slipping out, but does require some effort to extract it.

NOTE: Insert the GPS with the power button going in the case last or the tight fitting case may squeeze the GPS power button to the "ON" position.

I am very satisfied with this Garmin case.

GOOD PRICE BUT TOO SMALL

Pros: good price
Cons: very difficult to remove from case

Title sums it up. My wife was unable to remove the Garmin working over a minute before giving up. I can remove it but not nearly as easily as the case for my 660. It is easy to turn on trying to insert in the case. Hopefully time will help. As it is it's a marginal product

TOO TIGHT

Pros: good quality

On recommendation by GPS City, I purchased this case for a Nuvi 1390T. It is too tight for the product. It is difficult to remove the GPS from the case.

VERY POOR FIT

Pros: well made and compact
Cons: garmin has to be jammed into it.

Case seems to be well made but not for my Garmin. I had to force the Garmin into the case and thought I was going to have to cut te sides of the case to get my GPS out of it. Leaving the Garmin in the case for the next three days didn't seem to loosen the fit. I went to a local store and bought a larger case because I was afraid that I'd damage my Garmin trying to use the leather slip case.

THE PRICE WAS RIGHT!

Pros: quality and price
Cons: extra snug fit

Typical high quality Garmin OEM case. I needed a case for my Nuvi 780 and after checking the size specs or the 13xx series they were close enough that I thought I'd give this one a try since GPSCity had it for only $2.50. The 780 is definitely a snug fit in this case but it works and protects 100% of the screen area.

PERFECT CASE

Pros: great fit, tight and secure
Cons: none!

This case is a very snug fit, it holds my Nuvi 1350 in very tight and secure. As others have said it is pretty tight, but it does fit the GPS.

You wouldn't want a case to be loose fitting and have it fall out, right? It is not so tight where you can't remove it, it simply slides in and out.

Definitely recommended, especially for this price. If you need a case for your Nuvi 1300 series GPS, pick this up!

OK CASE FOR THE GPS

Pros: good looking cover for nuvi
Cons: elastic will turn power on accidentaly

It is a passable protective case. but sometimes, the elastic on the sides will push the power on when inserted in the case. I wish the case had a belt loop sewn into it for use "in the field"

Recommend? YES

WHY DID THIS TAKE SO LONG?

Pros: small, inexpensive, and convenient
Cons: snug fit at first, but loosened up

This case did was exactly what I was looking for. I'm a pretty frequent airline traveler and I hated just tossing my nuvi in my suitcase (I resorted to rolling it up in a sock) because it's pretty glossy and seems like it would scratch easily. I keep one in the car now too so I can protect my gps before putting it under the seat when I get out.

Recommend? YES
