hi mate, I recently got the garret pro probe and yes its expensive but its well made, easy to use, I take it out on every hunt and its in my opinion the best probe on the market. You wont be dissapointed if you get one,....

I've had mine a while and wouldn't go 'tectin without it. A solid bit of kit that makes other probes look like toys. Smiley

I agree with Richy - great piece of kit - easy to use, very solid build - a bit pricey, but well worth the money. I've had mine a few months and, like Richy, wouldn't go detecting without it. Smiley

I'm thinking of getting another probe, I've trashed my whites bullseye. Would definately invest in the Garret.

Had a few probes over the years which have all broken.

The Garrett is the best made and designed. Expensive at £84 but worth
every penny. Very rugged and feels unbreakable.

Vibrates the closer you get to a target and can detect about 4/5 inches
away. Has good noise and light which illuminates target and informs
when machine switched on.

Hope this helps.

Decided to rob the piggy bank, and have got one, they are as good as the comments say, and I dont have to bend down as far, great bit of kit.
