Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of GARMIN 010-10578-00 Carrying Case

Customer Review: Does the job
Summary: 4 Stars

Well made case. Protects the GPS very well, as with any case makes it somewhat harder to push buttons, and see with shiny clear vinyl window. All in all a good case that fits well.

Customer Review: Works for my purpose
Summary: 4 Stars

Bought this to keep the dust off and to provide a slight cushion when I strap it to my kite buggy on the dry lake bed. Put 160 miles on the buggy with the GPS and case; The only dusty part was the exposed parts. Washed the case in cold water, good as new. Wiped off the gps, good as new.

The hard usage of the jogger button is from the friction of the button and the clear plastic. I hope that they will eventually slide more easily. I'm considering a little 600 grit sandpaper on that portion of the clear plastic.

Yes, access to all ports on the back is blocked. A case with access to all the ports would be like swiss cheese, full of holes. Not really a big deal.

Customer Review: a piece of plastic over a piece of plastic
Summary: 1 Stars

I bought this cover for a reason. It was for my second Garmin 60csx. The first was lost overboard during a brutal night of sailing. I normally helm, but we mixed things up and I was up on foredeck. I should have put my Garmin down below.

The Garmin allows for a lanyard to be attached around a thin piece of plastic. It seems that this flaky attachment point is practically designed to fail. And fail it did.

So to it would also seem that the Garmin Protective Case would be custom built to solve this problem, hence the adverb Protective. Instead you get a piece of plastic to wrap around another piece of plastic. Gift wrapping if you will. Yes, it makes the buttons more difficult to manipulate. No, it doesn't allow access to the USB port. And you are correct for pointing out that the plastic window causes glare from just about any angle.

But no, it really doesn't offer much protection that a piece of some screen protection strip wouldn't. I paid $18 for this? Ok, I'm not too smart.

Customer Review: Great!
Summary: 5 Stars

Very user friendly!! Have a lot to learn, with so many options! Great price for you are getting. Would use seller again. B

Customer Review: If your going to sink $300, into a GPS get a good case.
Summary: 4 Stars

This case is a good way to protect the screen of your 60 CSX from scratches and it is not bulky at all. The only complaint is that there are not enough access holes in the case to get to the unit while it is in the case, so to upload maps, change batteries, etc, you have to take the whole case off - not hard to do, but bothersome.
