It is a good detector but you need to use it a bunch and learn to know what the tones are telling you. It doesn't have a bunch of modes or any of the fancy stuff, it is just a good solid machine. I keep saying I am going to upgrade, but I find enough stuff with the Troy I just never have.

Garrettt is indeed playing catch up right now and their Apex is from what I have heard, junk. The Garrett machines just do not have a very good processor in them. until they get off of their butts and use better processors, I would suggest avoiding them. The Nox is a great machine but it is not a beginner machine. I just came home about a half hour ago from running mine on a local road tear out.
