Review by Mama Luvs Books:
My hubby loves the outdoors and his latest favorite activity is kayaking. He bought his own kayak and takes it out in the water here in Rhode Island. He is not super experienced at the sport, so I do get nervous as he takes off in his one-man kayak on his adventures. He did once even mention to me that he was not quite sure where he was, which made me even more nervous. I decided I would find him a tool to use so he won’t get lost out at sea.
I found this “Get-Back GPS” from Brunton, and I absolutely love it. Brunton is an outdoors company that handles goods for extreme sports, anything outdoors, hunting, etc. What I loved most about this GPS is that it’s small and easy to take with him. There is a cord where he can attach it to his wrist or ankle, or a chain/clip to just attach it to his shorts or jacket.
Chain/Clip Cord
- Overall dimensions: 2.75″x1.5“x0.5″
- Accuracy of 12 feet in normal GPS mode
- 3 waypoints to find your way back to 3 different locations
- Arrival notification within 30 feet of destination
- Rechargeable battery with up to 13 hours of continuous use
- Signal Strength indicator
- Brunton SyncTech™ enabled, recharge internal battery from Brunton power packs or solar panels
- Self Calibrating Digital Compass
- Blue Back light
- Battery Life function
- Metric/Standard
- Recharges with included USB cable
- Small and light weight, only 1.3 ounces
I feel much safer for my hubby now that he has this to take with him on his kayaking adventures. I will probably borrow it myself for the Girl Scout hikes in the woods. It’s a great tool to own!

My husband would love it!
I would want to win this for my husband. Him and his friend are constantly out on their four wheelers, & our familes are always out on our mules in very back wooded areas. This would be perfect to help us get back to our trucks =) Thank you for the opportunity!
I want to win it for myself. I get lost A LOT!
My husband gets lost going to the mailbox. Boy would this help.
I would love to win this! IT would allow my sons and I to explore without the worry of losing our way, in the mountains! <3

Me. I don’t have a husband and even if I did I would still want it because I’d get lost in a paper bag. LOL
My husband because he constantly gets lost but is too manly to ask for directions. =)
I would want this for myself because I am going hiking in an unfamiliar place at the end of this month.
I would like to win this for me ! I get nervous driving to places I am not familar with !
For myself. I need it because I have a terrible sense of direction.
I would give it to my husband, who is becoming progressively more directionally impaired as the years go on! 🙂
I would most likely give this to my brother. He & his young sons have gotten into geo-caching so this would be a great product for them.
What the heck….me. Eventho I do very well with directions & seem to have a good sense of direction…that GPS wouldn’t hurt =)
win it for me!
I want to win this so my family and I can go on some awesome adventures
Myself, i get lost every where i go, it would help so much and could take the kids more places and not be scared of getting lost haha.
Great gift for my hubby!
We love to go camping with friends and ride our quads in the sand dunes, but my teenager prefers much hairy-er dunes than his younger siblings and I do. I would feel so much better letting him go out without me (with another rider, of course — never go alone!) if he had this with him. He’s horrible with navigation! And it’s so incredibly easy to get lost in the vastness of the Imperial Sand Dunes.
I would love to give this to my husband!
Be great when we are visiting a new area.
I would love to have this in a big city, for hikes, anythng! Sattelittes don’t work well for gps’ in cities when walking, so this would be helpful. Please t’s great to know you can always find your way back! This would be great as my son gets older too- just in case.
For myself, I get lost easily and I cant explain to anyone how to get to some place as I never remember the streets names. This would help greatly
I would love to use this for potential camping, since we haven’t been on a camping trip yet.
I want to win this for my son. He gets lost backing out of the driveway, lol. Seriously, he does get lost alot, he calls me all the time asking for directions.
I would love to have this for myself so when I go to the big cities, I will be able to find me!

I would love to win this for my son. I always worry about him when he goes hiking. Even though he informs me when he goes hiking and calls me and lets me know he is home safe I still worry so very much.

I would LOVE to win this because I just moved to a new city and my job requires a lot of driving!
I would really love to win this because as I get older, it is hard for me to see or read written directions. It would be nice to have a GPS to do it for me.
My 11 year old son gets lost in the grocery store much less anywhere else. I have had more FREAK OUT moments trying to find him than I would care to count. I would love to get this for him especially since he is going out & now wanting to go over to friends houses, etc…. This would give me a little more piece of mind 🙂
I would love to win this for my family! We love goin on bike rides and walks…but we dont always get to go as far as we want bc we are afraid of getting turned around!
my self i could get lost in my back yard
My dad or my boyfriend!
My hubs hates to ask for directions…so it would be for him
I would love to win this for my husband, he loves to have new gadgets, especially one that will keep him from getting lost. itookyourusernamehaha@gmail.com
