    Very accurate. Found a bunch being a first time user the first hour!
    Pinpoint feature works perfectly. First time user and we found about 15 things in 2 hours at the local park. Nothing much of value but still good to get familiarized with this product. The type of metal is not accurate. I would still dig everything because older jewelry and items are typically made from not so high value metals. we would scan and then use the pinpoint. I would set the detector down and then dig a hole around the detector. Then we would flip the grass lid up and dig straight down and every time the item was right in the hole. The depth feature Works accurately things that were on the surface or about 2-4 in down would show up as one bar. And if something was right on the surface it would just make the really loud tone consistently and show the one bar . Things that were about 4 to 8in down would show up as two bars.. and things that were eight inches or deeper would show up as three bars. That was with the sensitivity at 1. I'm sure this detector would detect things a lot deeper than the 12in if your sensitivity was adjusted higher up. I noticed this thing dinging like crazy whenever we would turn up the sensitivity so we just left it at 1 to originally find things. If it would ding and then I didn't hear the ding again I would turn it up to 2 and skin again and it would find the item ....then I would use the pinpoint feature until it got to its highest tone and then set the detector down and dig around it. So I would say this thing is very very accurate finding items and pinpointing the location. The depth is also accurate as well I would say 1 bar for about every 4 in . The tones work correctly as far as telling you how close to the surface something is as well it makes like a doorbell ding dong sound very loudly if something is right on top. I will upload a video and photos later of our fine and to show the features and how accurate this thing is. The only thing I found to not be accurate was it's deciphering the value or type of metal. We dug up saying said it said we're High value items or coins and it ended up being a crinkle chunk of aluminum or tin from roof material...or old railroad tie and nails . Also we found in early 1900 electrical fuse that had the ceramic or porcelain top with a mason jar type lid..that dinged as high value... either way I have not used to discrimination mode because I would like to dig up everything so this thing works great for what I need it for.

    Really enjoyed this at the beach with the grand kids. We actually found a money clip about 6 inches deep in the sand with 68 dollars in it. We felt like Pirate treasure hunters. Worked very well. Easy to adjust for different size searchers. Great family fun.
