Living close to the beach, I have owned many metal detectors. Most metal detectors in this price range are merely toys, without the advanced features of this one.

The assembly was really easy, taking less than 3 minutes. All the pieces are well made and went together without any tools. The build quality is good, with none of the plastic burrs and tags that you often see on similar products. The pole length is easily adjustable so treasure hunters of various heights are still comfortable using it.
The display is large and easily readable, which is great for a guy like me that wears bifocals. No squinting, just good readable text and numbers. And the display has a backlight for those warm summer evenings where you just want to walk along the beach as the sun goes down.
The search coil is waterproof so you can’t damage it if you ware walking along the shore and a wave hits it.
I like the handgrip as it is well balanced and doesn’t tire out your arm during an afternoon of searching.
I personally tested it with various coins and the display is accurate. This is a great feature when scanning a busy beach.

Comes with a nice carrying bag, a nice set of headphones, and a great collapsible shovel with its own nice case. It comes with batteries, so you don’t need anything else to get started on your personal Treasure Hunt.

I have never owned a good metal detector and for this one to be my first, I was very impressed. I bought it mainly to find my property line stakes. When I finally located it, I used the pin point mode, and when I moved a small amount of dirt in that spot, there was my stake. I have also experimented with finding my wedding ring and coins in the grass and it worked flawlessly. Have not got into any serious treasure hunting yet.

Easy to assemble and comfortable to use for both kids and tall users. Controls are clear and easily set even without reading the manual. Volume, sensitivity, and a surprisingly good discrimation and lockout functionality all easy to dial in properly.

False triggers: I've used OTHER detectors for searching for lost items in my own yards, and they constantly triggered on nothing at all or responded to my fairly iron-rich soil, without being able to find good settings. This SunPow unit had no trouble identifying garbage and staying quiet if set to ignore trash.

Targetted triggering: i tested with MANY sample metal objects of all kinds ranging from gold to titanium to steel to copper and bronze... this detector only jittered slightly from correct identification (eg. copper might lean into bronze, but NEVER so wrong as steel) - EASY to determine whether to bother digging up a "hit."

Unit comes with a useful carry bag and a mini-shovel great for moderate users. Serious users may want a better shovel but having even a moderate one ALREADY with the unit is great.

Overall i'm very pleased with this unit... excellent for kids to moderate effort adults. ALL detectors will require learning how to use them effectively, but this is able to do all I've asked of it.

I really like this line of filters, they are my favorite filters

I have been metal detecting for at least 15 years and have thousands invested in my detectors. This is a great beginning detector for a small child to see if he/she will like the hobby. I buried a penny, dime, nickel and quarter in different areas about 4" deep and this detector found them all. It comes with 2 AA batteries and set-up is a breeze. Give this to a kid, take him/her to a school playground where there are swing sets and if your lucky and the swings are on sand, this little thing will find coins and the kid will be so excited you won't believe how happy he/she will be.

When it comes to metal detectors, I'm at best a beginner but the last one I owned wasn't as good as this one when it came to detecting anything below a few inches in the ground. With this metal detector, I'm able to detect almost a foot's depth in ground. Not to mention, this is fully waterproof and have been able to find things along the shore banks in lakes and small river banks near my home. Surprisingly, this is a lot more accurate than I thought it was going to be. The amount of things that I have found has been big to an antique spoon and few things that were bigger but then as small as what I later found out to be a small piece of gold. What I love about this detector is the accuracy and the fact that it doesn't weigh too much that it feels as though my arm is going to fall off. The sound on this was is clear, especially when it's detecting something and it can get fairly if you don't turn the volume down.

This new line of pro grade filters from K&F Concept is truly fantastic.These filters are super slim, with smooth threads that attach easily to my lens.The UV filter doesn't have any color cast or produce any optical aberrations in general.Just a crystal clear filter to keep your lens safe.Comes with a padded case for safe storage.

I have been doing metal detecting search for a long time. I had 2 metal detectors - Garrett and Deus xp. This metal detector is fast to assemble, good coil, convenient display, inexpensive .. It sees all targets, I used it on the beach, I liked it
The price includes headphones, which is convenient
