National Geographic PRO Series Metal Detector - Ultimate Treasure Hunter with Pinpointer, Large Waterproof 10" Coil - Lightweight and Collapsible for Easy Travel (Amazon Exclusive)

Very Impressed with ease of use and how good it works. Takes just a little practice to get the hang of, just like anything else. Very compact and light weight. You can fold it up and toss it in a backpack with everything you need to go out hunting. Wish I would have purchased a few months earlier. Now I have to wait through the cold frozen winter before I can use it again!

Pinpoint feature works perfectly. First time user and we found about 15 things in 2 hours at the local park. Nothing much of value but still good to get familiarized with this product. The type of metal is not accurate. I would still dig everything because older jewelry and items are typically made from not so high value metals. we would scan and then use the pinpoint. I would set the detector down and then dig a hole around the detector. Then we would flip the grass lid up and dig straight down and every time the item was right in the hole. The depth feature Works accurately things that were on the surface or about 2-4 in down would show up as one bar. And if something was right on the surface it would just make the really loud tone consistently and show the one bar . Things that were about 4 to 8in down would show up as two bars.. and things that were eight inches or deeper would show up as three bars. That was with the sensitivity at 1. I'm sure this detector would detect things a lot deeper than the 12in if your sensitivity was adjusted higher up. I noticed this thing dinging like crazy whenever we would turn up the sensitivity so we just left it at 1 to originally find things. If it would ding and then I didn't hear the ding again I would turn it up to 2 and skin again and it would find the item ....then I would use the pinpoint feature until it got to its highest tone and then set the detector down and dig around it. So I would say this thing is very very accurate finding items and pinpointing the location. The depth is also accurate as well I would say 1 bar for about every 4 in . The tones work correctly as far as telling you how close to the surface something is as well it makes like a doorbell ding dong sound very loudly if something is right on top. I will upload a video and photos later of our fine and to show the features and how accurate this thing is. The only thing I found to not be accurate was it's deciphering the value or type of metal. We dug up saying said it said we're High value items or coins and it ended up being a crinkle chunk of aluminum or tin from roof material...or old railroad tie and nails . Also we found in early 1900 electrical fuse that had the ceramic or porcelain top with a mason jar type lid..that dinged as high value... either way I have not used to discrimination mode because I would like to dig up everything so this thing works great for what I need it for.

Got this to find the property markers around one of my houses. They drive rebar in the ground at the corners of lots here. It worked like a charm - a heck of a lot cheaper than paying for a survey. I also used it at the beach and found a kid's toy truck and a rather large diamond earing. The pinpointing mode works pretty well, but I found the metal type discriminator to be somewhat inaccurate. It would show iron / junk but upon digging it was coins. Giving 4 stars because the balance on this causes your arm to wear out quickly when scanning a large area. I've had others before that weren't as tiring to use. Also the arm extension piece seems cheap.

Tal como se describe, cumple las espectativas,

Overall, it’s not a bad detector, but extremely high price for the quality. This detector cannot be lightly “bumped” against grass, sticks, rocks, and even soil, or it will go off saying it’s something. That being said, it has recovered multiple targets. If you want to get this exact detector for $70 bucks cheaper, go to “seriousdetecting.com” and get it for $90 bucks with free shipping! Just type in “Minelab go-find-22” and it will pull right up. This product is made by Minelab, but endorsed by “National Geographic”. But if you still want the scam version price, I suggest you get the “Garrett ace 200 it is the same price, but waaaayyy better quality! And can be purchased on amazon

We’ve only had a chance to use the detector a couple of times so far, but works really well. A screwdriver and an earring were among the more interesting things we found, just in our garden! The detector is very easy to use. There are just a few buttons to toggle the sensitivity level, volume, and different kinds of metals to target. It can supposedly tell the difference between metals, but we’ve just dug up everything so far. The length can be easily adjusted for any kid or adult, and it folds down to a very compact size. It feels pretty sturdy even though its mostly plastic, but it is very light because of that. It requires AA batteries, and even after a few hours of use, the battery indicator is still showing as full. The instructions also mention that the coil is waterproof, so it’ll be great to take to the beach once it warms up a bit!

This is my first detector and I absolutely love it! I read tons of guides for metal detecting and one of my main concerns was the weight of the unit being too heavy and it turning me off to the activity entirely. That's not the case with this detector. Easy to use from jump street and incredibly lightweight. My first time out I scanned my local beach for 4-5 hours with no fatigue. Found a necklace pendant, bunch of beer caps, and some decent change. What a fun experience thanks to this detector!!

I bought this for my wife (who started watching too many metal detecting YouTube videos). The key pluses are its size and weight. It collapses to a nice small size. It is easy to put in the trunk. After many trips to the local beaches, I find it very easy to use. It is lightweight which a big plus. It does a good job of detecting. The detection modes are not always correct. However, an experienced detector told me always dig up everything. That would be true with this unit. The pinpoint location feature works well. Overall I really like this metal detector. Great for someone just starting out. It's fun to take out, but I still have not found my fortune yet.

Not worth the money. Very basic.

Works well. There is a bit of a learning curve and the documentation could be better but the detector is fantastic. It folds to a very small size and is very lightweight. The indicators are very clear and precise. While I have nothing to compare this with, I am very impressed.
