Whites Classic I
For the price......yes!
Barry N. in Needville, TX -
Okay, I bought this detector over 10 years ago and still use it. It is not my primary, but it still gets used. For the price you pay for this detector it is right on. I was hunting with this detector right along side guys that had the high priced units and hit a honey hole of silver coins. It has a discrimination knob that helps discriminate out unwanted items. I have a huge collection of coins that I found with this detector, so if you are going to go coin shooting you WILL find coins. Great starter detector and great to hang onto when you upgrade so the kids or a friend can use one and hunt with you. I use mine to gain permission to hunt someones property. I just tell them if I can hunt your property I will bring a detector for you to use and hunt with me.

Think before you post please
Mike in Calif -I don't get the post below mine. How can a person say, this is his first and only detector and then judge it to others? I hold no weight with posts such as these. This White's Detector is a well made and effective for finding treasure.

Reliable but Dated
Ross in Springfield, IL -
This was my first, and so far only, metal detector. The Classic I is a very simple, easy to use machine that would be ideal for an entry level detectorist to pick-up-and-go. As another reviewer mention the battery life for this machine is extraordinary. The drawback with this machine is that, owing to its simplicity of discrimination, you'll be digging a lot of scrap iron, pull tabs, and other unwanted junk. While the classic was good for its day (I acquired mine ten years ago)there are now better beginner detectors on the market (Garrett Ace 250, Whites Prizm series).

paul bates in Yorkshire, England UK -just writing this for the classic sl ll as there is no heading for this machine,, i wonder why,, its a great machine, ive had my classic sl two,, for a couple of years now and its just great, you have to take time out with the discrimination in getting this set right,, i used a box with dirt and coins in with junk and allsorts and just play at it,, it works,, once set up mark your points and away you go,, quite deep to, ive found roman coins the size of a dime at 9inches this machine can show others up no problems,, happy hunting all....

Good For Entry level m/d
Anonymous in Anytown, AT 55555 -I got this detector as a gift. has been great. No mechanical problems. Battery's last a lifetime in this machine. As it has no bells or whistles. There ia a turn knob for a discriminator. You hunt for anything. Will get lots of iron with tis machine. Looking to move up to a Garrett 250.

good first detector
grant in md -i have been using the classic 1 for over a year and it is a pretty nice detector for someone that wants to try the hobby out to see if they like it..i have found lots of stuff with it .it doesnt have much depth at all but does find coins, jewlery, relics. but if your just starting out i would suggest getting a little better one like a classic id or idx pro,, u wont be dissapointed,
