For one thing, the Garret Company has some 40 years of engineering behind it.  They are not new to the manufacture of these machines and they are very familiar with not just what's needed to make your hunting more successful, but more enjoyable as well.

Some features of the Garret Ace 250 metal detector include notch discrimination, pinpoint feature, graphic target ID and Touch-n-Go technology.  These features are imperative not just for the ease of use but for accuracy when hunting as well.  It also comes with graphic target ID cursor with 12 element notch discrimination for greater accuracy when hunting, Continuous Coin Depth Indication, Tone ID, 8 sensitivity settings, 5 pre-set hunting modes and the most advanced LCD graphic screen for quick and easy visual targeting.

Not to mention that the Garret Ace 250 metal detector is just a beautiful piece of machinery to look at!  Its sleek and elegant design makes it the envy of every other treasure hunter out there.  And while you may not fully appreciate all of the features of this detector, keep in mind that when you're outside all day hunting down small pieces of treasure, you're going to really need that accuracy and all those indicators in order to make your day as enjoyable as possible.

The Garret Ace 250 metal detector also easily disassembles into three 24" pieces so that it can be taken or stored anywhere.  Its assembled height can be adjusted from 42 inches to 51 inches and with a weight of only 2.7 pounds no matter your own arm length and comfort level, the Garret metal detector will be perfect for you.  This means it can even be used by children!

With the 4 AA batteries included and its touch and go technology, this detector can be out of the box and running with minutes.  As with any metal detector with a lot of advanced features it will take some time to get all of the settings right for your treasure hunting technique.  With the correct 12 element notch discrimination you will never again dig up a bottle cap or a soda can pull tab again.

I like to prospect for gold nuggets so I do not treasure hunt on sandy beaches or state parks so having the custom programmable mode switch has saved me hours of time.  In addition it comes with 3 pre-programmed search modes, all metal, jewelry, coins, relics.

If you're going to purchase a Garret Ace 250 metal detector be sure to get it from an authorized Garret dealer.  Of course you can purchase a used piece of equipment and they're usually going to work just as well, but you will find very few used unites on the market.  Most serious treasure hunters will not give up there old unit even when upgrading to a more professional model.  It is kept as a backup or as a spare model when taking friends out treasure hunting for the first time.

So whether you're new to hunting or an experienced hunter, you should definitely consider the Garret Ace 250 metal detector.  It's typically very affordable for anyone's budget and easy enough to use by anyone.  Definitely it's an option that you should consider!
