I have owned my Safari for one year. Here is my opinion on it. First I had to send it back and the service was excellent. The first thing I found with my Safari was a 1907 Barber dime at 11"-depth excellent. Learned the tones in little time so learning time excellent. The things I do not like about the Safari is the processor time is so slow, if you hunt a new park or after concert etc, where you are just coin shooting (clad) it is way to slow. Example my Whites XLT will cover more ground and find more coins at about a three to one rate. Warranty is only for one year, my Tesoro u-max is lifetime and half the cost. I really believe that if I go as slow with either my tesoro or XLT it will go as deep as my Safari. Final-the Safari is a good detector but not a one thousand dollar detector. Shorty2
