To sum it up.....I wouldn't trade it for any other. It's so accurate and I can out-hunt my husband with his DFX time and time again. I love that feeling. Love the rewards also.
Cons: It eats the batteries. Maybe I use it too much???

This is one great detector. Simple to use and very versatile. Unlike an earlier comment the MXT's two filter system is a VERY quick recovery system. This makes the MXT one of the best at seperating targets which lay close together. In relic mode, with Discrimination set at zero, and the trigger locked in the forward position you can hear both the high tone of a coin AND the low tone of iron trash that are laying practically on top of each other.
Another reviewer claims that Whites can't touch Minelab. That's a crock. The MXT will hold its own against any equally priced Minelab. The truth is the Minelab will be better in some circumstances and the Whites will be better in others.
If you're looking for an easy to use, versatile detector that's a step above a turn on and go machine, don't overlook the MXT.

White's MXT

After reading all of the reviews posted, I felt I should throw in my two cents for what it is worth. I too felt like many have already expressed that the standard coil produces too much noise. This is standard if your settings are not right and you have not learned your detector. How many of you that wrote in have a test bed? This valuable tool is the most important piece of your equipment, without it you are lost.
My first suggestion is build a test bed, if you can't then have someone bury various items in a local play ground. Sit down at night with your detector and manual and go over each and every knob and switch. Practice and keep practicing. As far as negitive points, I have none. I haven't found one thing with my MXT that I don't appricate or wish there was some added feature. Yes the price is high, but so are a lot of other machines that cost 2 to 3 times what you will spend on a MXT. On closing thoughts, keep your coil down on the ground as close as possible. If you don't have grass stains on your cover then your not close enough. If you have any questions or want to ask questions email me and I will get you an answer one way or another.

MXT is one great detector
Danny Morrow in Milford, KS -
i started out in metal detecting when i asked for a detector for christmas...not knowing any better my wife purchased a low end Bounty Hunter from the local "superstore"....i was hooked...as i did some more research and gained more experience i wanted a more advanced machine...enter the Whites MXT.
i have had nothing but great experiences with this metal detector and would recommend it to any level of treasure hunter. its very easy to use, goes very deep, and i can pinpoint anything with this machine....i cant say enough about it.
living in Kansas i have not used it for any Gold hunting but i have spoken to a few people who have and they rate it as a great gold detector.
one tip i can pass on is to go to the whites site and download the owners manual, its a good way to see what you are getting. if you are new to metal detecting and you dont understand something in the manual go to one fo the numerous forums and ask about it....there are some of the best people you will ever meet in this hobbie and they are happy to answer any questions.
good luck and check out the MXT

great machine,,had it for about 7 months,,easy to operate in any mode,,,pinpointing is the best i have seen on any machine..if it is in the middle of the coil on full bars you can bank on getting there,,depth too...light weight ..perfect balance..screen easy to read,,,even good for a beginner...

Over here in the uk we hunt mainly for those very small thin sectioned hammered coins, it needs a very sensitive fast recovering machine to be successful at this kind of hunting, the MXT is the ideal machine in this situation, i've used them all and the MXT out-performs the over-hyped very slow reacting Explorer, and even the whites flagship DFX, at around £595 over here its also the best value machine on the uk market.

I am new and have had my MXT for about 3 weeks. I researched for a couple months before purchase. I wanted a high end detector that I could use right out of the box, but at the same time I could grow with as I learned more. The MXT filled that requrement perfectly and I have not been disappointed. I was out in the yard the morning after I purchased it recovering some of my lost money.
Find a local distributor. Mine was great and his prices were excellent. He was a great help and remains a resource.
