The Sunpow Metal Detector for Adults Professional is one of the best metal detectors I have ever owned. Living close to the beach, I have owned many metal detectors, most were just toys compared to the Sunpow. Most metal detectors in this price range are merely toys, without the advanced features of this one. The assembly was really easy, taking less than 5 minutes. All the pieces are well made and went together without any tools. The build quality is good, with none of the plastic burrs and tags that you often see on similar products. The pole length is easily adjustable so treasure hunters of various heights are still comfortable using it. The display is large and easily readable, which is great for a guy like me that wears bifocals. No squinting, just good readable text and numbers. And the display has a backlight for those warm summer evenings where you just want to walk along the beach as the sun goes down. The search coil is waterproof so you can’t damage it if you ware walking along the shore and a wave hits it. I like the handgrip as it is well balanced and doesn’t tire out your arm during an afternoon of searching. I personally tested it with various coins and the display is accurate, if it says 5c then you can be sure it’s a nickel, 25c is a quarter, 10c and 1c a dime and a penny. This is a great feature when scanning a busy beach, since with other detectors I’ve had, much of the time was spent digging up bottlecaps or similar. The amazing thing is that most models in this price range get you the detector, and that’s all. The Sunpow has a really nice carrying case, a nice set of headphones, and a great collapsible shovel with its own nice case. It comes with batteries, so you don’t need anything else to get started on your personal Treasure Hunt. Read more
