Tesoro Compadre
Bounty Hunter Lone Star
Definitely a winner !
Nick hunter in Europe -Just bought a Compadre to hunt the beaches. Got one with 8" hard wired coil. The very first 9 hours with it (3 outings) were very productive : one 18K golden bracelet, two silver pendants, and 206 current coins. The ability to discriminate into the ferrous range is a real plus and makes this little beaut a great coinshooter and i'm sure it'll be an excellent relic hunting unit.
This detectors talks to you while searching. If you undestand it's language, you'll outclass any digital unit.

What a great piece of equipment!
Hugo in Georgia -
I just bought a Tesoro Compadre for my 7 year old daughter and a Fisher F2 for myself. After getting familiar with the controls and some test, I took her to the local playground with her Compadre. She found 1 quarter, 1 dime and 4 pennies. This thing is simple, lightweight and it discriminates great. She was so happy with her detector! Only reason I gave it 4 stars is because it doesn't have pinpoint feature but you can't beat it for the price. The coil is small so after using it for a couple of hours, I'm sure you will be more accurate when digging. Great buy and will highly recommend it to anybody on a budget looking for simplicity but a quality product! I'm digging it!;0)

Best little detector in Texas
Bill in Texas in Kerrville, Texas USA -I bought this detector for my wife and she loves it. I have 6 Tesoros, so you know that I am a Tesoro nut. Well I find myself grabbing this little machine when my wife is not hunting with me for the first time hunts. It will really sniff out those indicator coins in a trashy area. It is so light and easy to use. A wonderful machine for the money. Great job Tesoro

Love this Compadre its Great!
Big Jo in Cali -Great detector finds coins like a beast. Good jewlry machine too. Gets at least 6 to 7 inches on a coin in grass amazing. Discs out iron really well too. Easy to use to. Good battery life on one 9 volt.Highly recomend. Had a Garrett ace 250 and a Fisher F2 like this compadre way better. Tesoro you Rock.

Nice Machine for the Money thumbs up
Jo in Ca -Well first of all its better than the Ace 250 and the Fisher f2 for less money. Very smooth quiet and sensitive. Its also a pretty deep detector. Tesoro made a customer outa me.

Compadre
Don in Cape Canaveral -I love this detector. Granted it does not have alot of adjustments for all you "knob turners", but it will get the job done. I was able to hunt right next to chain link fences, in tough cinder/gravel walkways, and of course in regular park grounds. I think the light weight and razor sharp disc make this light heavyweight a winner.

Simple and not complicated
james in tennessee usa -This one knobbed coin killer is the one I use when I go out picknicking with the family. Don't have to stand there 30 minutes trying to ground balance a big machine. I like this one especially if you just want to go on a quick hunt and don't have much time. Tesoro makes fine machines for everyone. Thank you tesoro.

Amazing!!
PAbart in PA -My son received this detector as a gift from his pop who won it at the daytona hunt. I put it together today and we decided to try it out in our yard, which has been hunted many times by many different machines. he found an older hoop style earing, some bullets and a 1906 indian head penny in 45 minutes. I am amazed. this is a wonderful, lightweight, easy to use machine. We can't wait to try the rest of our yard.

Very nice tesoro
wjm in ohio -This has got to be the easiest metal detector to use. I bought this for the wife and 7 year old but will spend a lot more time with it myself. Plenty deep enough for most situations. I've used it in a trash infested park and it did great! its deepest find so far...a 50 cent sized piece of aluminum 8 inches deep in my neighbors garden. Not bad tesoro.
