The Tesoro Compadre Metal Detector was designed with the idea that less is more. This modest metal detector can do a lot of the same things that its bigger brothers can do. It works great for coin hunting, competition hunting and relic hunting, but it does it without any excess knobs. Switch on the detector and you're working in a silent search, motion all metal mode. The farther you turn the knob, the more discrimination you can bring to bear on those trashy sites.
The Tesoro Compadre metal detector has it all. One knob simplicity for the beginner and high gain circuitry and the famous Tesoro ED-180 discrimination for the advanced user. If one detector can do all of this, maybe less is more.

Summary: Ok for the money but you can do much better.... 2010-03-18
Comment: I got this metal detector about a month ago and tried it a couple of times. You can find alot of trash with it. I used at the beach and the only thing I found was a bunch of cans. I buried a gold chain about 12'' deep and yes it found it but the signal wasn't strong. Another thing was that the closer to the water I was getting the more beeps I was getting but as I was digging nothing was coming out....weird! I shopped around for 2 months before I got this metal detector and I don't think was the right choice.

Summary: First Metal Detector 2010-03-17
Comment: This is my first metal detector, and I chose this model based on excellent reviews on other sites and the ease of use with this detector. I love how lightweight it is (i'm a short, petite girl), so you can just grab and go. I found a very old pair of pliers in the yard on my first day out with it. It beeps a lot in our yard, so I'm still trying to figure out exactly how to best use it and decipher the signals. Overall I'm quite happy with it. I love it's lightweight and sleek design, and the price can't be beat for something this cool.
