4.0 out of 5 starsGood metal detector
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on December 12, 2022
I lost a pin off my excavator bucket, Was hours by hand with no luck then I got this. Found the pin within 5mins, which paid for the metal detector in finding the bucket pin alone. Good for picking up nails on driveways etc too, easy to use and assembly is very simple. Seller is very friendly.

Would recommend this.

3.0 out of 5 starsWhat can I say,they say it's to find stuff !
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on October 17, 2021
I had another inexpensive unit 12 years ago,it did find aluminum, and this unit found a aluminum pop can about 6 or 7 inches deep in mud.
Point on that,my old unit picked barium in a rock bolder buried in the ground,near the surface,I hope this inexpensive unit does too.
I bought it to search rocks for nonferrous metals,like gold(au)silver or others.or show ferrous mineral locations iron,etc.
It has some funky setup where u turn it to the right to use "dism" or all the way to left for "all metals".not like my old unit that was turned all the way to left for gold and all the way right for ferrous metals.
It does have a sensitivity dial ,and an ear plug jack,which you might find handy after listening to outside noise,but out in the bush,you might not need that.
For 80$,I can only hope it has enough power to find gold in quartz veins!
The others Amazon show,use "dism adjustments" as well.Strange idea!
There are other units that cost more,but the question is,how much better are they,some claim to reach down a foot or more but these cost more,some say after upgrading to a better unit and redoing the ground they covered they found more metals!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on November 27, 2021

I bought this for my 9 year olds birthday party. We had a treasure hunt themed birthday party where I buried objects around my property and gave them clues where each item was hidden and we had attached coins to the treasure’s so the detector could find them.
They were able to find all of the treasures with this metal detector along with some stuff that had been buried in our backyard previously.
This is light enough for 7-10 year olds to use quite easily for over an hour without them tiring.
My son is excited to be able to go with his dad to the beach this summer to hopefully find some β€œcool stuff” in the sand.
We had tested out the detector before hand to make sure the kids could find the items and the detector found them buried (some we hid quite far down) easily.
It will light up and you can hear louder consistent beeps when you get close to items or you can insert headphones if want. It also breaks down so easy for storage.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this to others. It is a great gift to give or if you need to find stuff that you lost.
Please keep in mind it does NOT come with batteries (large smoke detector size x2) so will need to have some to be able to use. The battery power seems great, used for hours and still has lots of battery life.
Oh also bonus, it comes with a spade to be able to dig up the items.

I bought this for my wife for Christmas 2019. On one of our camping trips a part got broken. I wrote the company not expecting much since it had been so long and asked if a replace part was available. They replace the WHOLE unit at not extra cost to me. This company is showing what it means to go above and beyond for their customers and just how much they support the products they sell. Excellent all round!!!! Wife is very happy. I am very very satisfied.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for a beginner
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on May 28, 2020
Verified Purchase
Years ago I worked with a UXO/EOD team and they would run pretty expensive gear. This is definitely an entry-level device but for me wanting to do metal detecting for a fun hobby this thing is great. You definitely need a pin-pointer if you are going to dig but after a few days of using this metal detector I figured it out and was making much smaller holes. Waterproofing on the coil has been perfect (I've been digging near the lake). It's not built to take a beating but I also have not been overly cautious laying it down on stones, sand, grass, etc. and so far have no problems. My only complaint is that the extending pole is a bit short for someone over 6'. It still works fine and for the entry level price point you could always replace the extending pole with a piece of tubing. I'm up to one pocket watch, a cast iron claw foot, an ancient trunk latch, and about 400 nails. I bought this to get a feel for metal detecting but now I plan to run this unit for as long as it lasts. It does the job.

1.0 out of 5 stars DON"T BUY! It's a piece of junk - Returned
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on January 15, 2023
Verified Purchase
Incredibly surprised at the inferior quality and working of this so-called metal detector.
The GOOD:
A. The pictures in the description look good (sic)
B. The little digging shovel packed with it looks quite nice and comes in a pouch.
The BAD:
Did not work reliably right out of the box;
A. the needle would get stuck in the middle of the scale,
B. the "detecting" was unreliable, not repeatable,
C. at best it would detect a 20-30 inch large area, useless if you were looking for a small item, like a key or coin
D. children sized, I am 5'8 and still had to bend at the waist to bring the coil close to the ground.
E. the technology used is probably 20-30 years old
F. in the description they had the gall to put the word "Professional". My comment: Ha!!!
The UGLY:
A. Small round coil, needing a lot more passes to do a search grid, if the thing worked.
B. The audio signal and visual indicator would be randomly intermittent even when you were right on top of the metal object, making even attempts at pinpointing something futile.
C. The range was dismal, even at maximum sensitivity
D. I would have given it zero stars if I could but Amazon won't let me. maybe the little digging shovel is worth the one star
E. I would suggest to Amazon to stop selling this junk and all the other listings that are a copy of this one.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not waterproof like advertised!
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on August 15, 2022

We purchased this metal detector 2 years ago for our 10 year old. It worked very well for finding all
types of metal hidden in the ground. However, we used it in the shallow lake water, not even a foot deep at the shoreline and now it doesn’t work! It just keeps beeping constantly when you turn it on now. So while it claims to be waterproof, buyer beware!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great affordable entry level detector
Reviewed in Canada πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ on October 3, 2022
Verified Purchase
After reading many reviews and articles I chose this one. The price was good for an entry level detector. I tested it for many hours to make sure it works or it was going back. No! I did not find any gold or rings; but I was not in an area where you would expect to. I did find a three inch steel elbow that was about six inches deep and many small metal items that were buried an inch or two below the surface. It works best I think with headphones that I purchased. Only time will tell how long it lasts.

Like some of the other comments it is cheaply built...if some are wondering its thin like a swifer handle...however if you are not banging it against trees and throwing it in the trunk or using it like town workers use shovels...leaning posts...it will last...I took it out in the yard it picked up a dime up to 3 inches deep all I bothered for a test...it found a white gold ring and a Stirling silver ring in a small baggie buried 3 inches deep and I found a bunch of screws that the young fella dropped while building his ramp so I got to grease him for being careless with the screws could cost me a lawn tractor tire ;) love it so far...I used it with head phones and without...will try it out in the woods along a washout and a river...then I will update...oh the camping shovel...I woulda payed 15 for that by itself...i like it...
