It was a running device and quality was good. However, I mistakenly placed the order thinking that the device was Instinct Solar since that was shown in the pictures of the ad I saw on RefurbLane. I was happy that the seller was kind enough to issue the return.

The watch is great for my uses. Battery seems good but not quite what I think a new one should be. There’s an occasional lag when selecting things through menus but I guess some of that is to be expected with refurbished. Looks like new. Works well. On the Garmin end I love the connection to the app they have. I live in the mountains so for hikes and runs alike the watch has awesome useful features like a magnetic compass, map tracing, a feature to bring you back to your starting point if you get lost, altimeter, barometer. It goes on. Jam packed. I’m happy with it so far after about two weeks of daily use.

It was defective from the moment I received it. It would power on and charge, and despite saying 100%/24 days of battery, as soon as pressed any buttons, it would crash and turn off. The only way to get it to recover would be to plug it into its charger, which would cause it to power on and show full battery again. Based on that and it not being even fully clean, the chances of this actually being “refurbished” seem very slim. It was probably received, inspected while connected to a charger, then re-sold. While connected to power, no issues would have shown. The seller should do more due diligence in their inspections. After reading more about the seller online and on Reddit, with the 5-10+ other business names it’s been mentioned they may operate under, it sounds like this is not unheard of and many others have been misled on purchases, sent incorrect or defective items, etc. I definitely felt played once I figured out I had a defective item (knew within a matter of minutes after first charge). RefurbLane has been responsive and great in rectifying the issue, as has Garmin direct. The negative feedback above is to reflect the seller specifically.

Yup good product excellent condition affordable price lots of bang for buck with this model works really well. Durable and outdoorsy stylish. I personally could use a bit bigger screen but the light button is really good.

Great watch while it’s working. Turns out there is a manufacturer based issue of this model shutting off and not turning back on until you connect it to a charger. No use in replacing it. There are fixes that seem to work on the web. Great piece just doesn’t work and turns off at times. I’ll be using this company again for other products very soon and will be making video reviews of all devices I’ve purchased. I’m hoping the stuff remains decent, not counterfeit and reliable. This company could be a gold mine for those of us who don’t have a lot of money but would like nicer things.

This watch is not the solar version, it is just the Garmin instinct. False marketing
