I used to use a TomTom but for whatever reason it decided to refuse to update after a while and kept crashing my computer when I plugged it in so sacked it off. Now on to a Garmin. Have to be honest, I much prefer TomTom's - the Garmin struggles to pick up and hold signal in certain places where the TomTom never had an issue. | |

Use a free one on my iPhone, I probably only use a satnav about 3 times a year so couldn't warrant buying one. | |

I use a TomTom for work and I'd rather eat fresh dog shit than buy one myself. | |

My last 3 have been Tomtoms, I've always found them pretty intuitive, the latest one I bought (Start 20) has IQ routes which seems a big improvement over the older routing system, it also brings up an option to find car parks as you get near your destination, it's relatively easy to avoid part of a route if there's reports of traffic, Lane guidance etc. | |

Have a tomtom europe with iq routes. Never had a problem with it. Screen is more than wide enough at around 4-5''. | |

I had a TomTom but was about 6 years ago. Was stolen out my dads van. He has a Garmin I used once, kept beeping if you went anything over 70. Did my bloody head in. Must have been his settings but I couldn't work it out :lol: | |

I have a garmin that's used nearly everyday for work. Very simple to use and good clear screen. Go for the widescreen version. | |

Garmin have always had the best and most intuitive UI, which imo is the most important thing to look for. | |

Yeh a lot of people have mentioned Garmin, they seem to be much better value than TomTom. | |

Mum wants a sat nav for Christmas. I've always considered TomTom to be the best, not sure if that's still the case? |
