Works great, comes with a nice heavy duty bag, the shovel is nice and sturdy has its own bag as well (definitely good quality) we haven't gotten to use it in the water yet but have used it around the yard and found a few things.. still trying to figure it all out .

I got this metal detector for my 7 year old son. He loves it. We take it to the beach and it’s compact enough to take in the car and for him to carry around himself. He finds so much cool stuff. He had been asking for one for awhile and I am so glad we decided to buy this one. It has been amazing.

Detects metal and shoes approximate depth. Comes with a carry case and lots of accessories, including shovel and head phones. Great for kids and beginners.

My son has been asking for one of these because when we moved into our house now, last year he's always finding stuff that he digs up. (He loves to play in dirt and dig) So we got this one to try out and see if we find anything. I love the settings you can turn it to real medal or just like nails. We havnt found anything of value yet, but hoping in the spring to take it on some trails. It's very light weight and easy to use for my 7 year. I highly recommend.

10 year old boy loves this, he assembled it himself. We have another similar one the 10 year old girl owns, now that he has one, he is very happy. Adjustable to the length needed from arm reach to ground, so nothing too long or short, pole adjusts. It is not overly heavy, has a little weight, but not enough to strain out a child. This one didn't have the added wrist stabilization weight feature, that would rest on arm to balance out, just a straight out handle pole from the reader. It has a little rope you can hang up after use.

We tested this out during a backyard renovation. It found pipes, staples, nails and decades old lost items. Missing hair clips, some old beading wire, a paperclip, parts of metal objects we don't recognize and some metallic stones.
So far, it accurately predicts how far down an object is and what it might be.
It hasn't died, but we only used it for an hour or so each day.
I paired it with a magnetic pole to pick up anything near the surface. I don't know why one isn't included with the detector. It seems like a logical combination.
Bottom line: Would I order again? I might. Would I gift it? Yes. It's a fun distraction and helpful during remodeling. I hate losing nails and staples.

You won’t be using it on Oak Island, but it’s a lot of fun to take out on a hike or family trip to the beach! I’m 5’5”, and feel that I can use this easily. Registers metals as different ones on the screen, which is really exciting! Coil is sensitive and quick to react the closer something is to it, which I only mention because I’m not sure how accurate the depth measure is. It’s not super easy to understand. So, as a rule of thumb, the louder the sound, the closer the metal is. On the downside, it’s difficult to collapse into the very basic carrying case. Really glad to have it!

Picked this up so my 6yr. old son could join me when I go metal detecting on the beach. This metal detector fit the bill prefect. He loved it right out of the box. It's nice and light weight for him and was adjusted to the perfect height for him. The pictures on the screen are perfect for him to he gets very excited when he sees that the money target starts beeping. First outing to the beach he found over $1.00 in change and was super excited. The included backpack is great to hold everything. For an inexpensive kids metal detector this is a great buy for anyone looking to have some fun searching for treasures.
