Bounty HunterDiscovery 3300 Metal Detector for Adults & Kids – Gold & Relic Finder with 5 Modes, Pinpoint, Waterproof Coil, Target ID, Manual Ground Balance – Made in USA

This metal detector functions well, is easy to figure out and gets you going quickly. The sound quality was perfect. All in all I am very satisfied with this product.

I am new to the metal detecting game and searched out reviews for several metal detectors (MD). I was torn between the Garrett ACE 350 (Garrett Ace 350 Metal Detector) and the Bounty Hunter Discovery 3300. I was looking for a decently priced (MD) for the beginner.The (MD) came very well packed. It was packed inside a box which was inside a larger box. The unit was very easy to assemble. As always, it is very important to read and follow the instructions before using the product it is easy enough to understand.I have been using this (MD) for a short time now and I am very impressed. It seems to pick up very well and the pinpointing feature comes in very useful. I can locate an object within just a couple of inches (3 inches at the most) of where the (MD) tells me where it is located. I use small survey flags to mark my spots before I start to dig and start my digging just outside the flag post. The pinpointing feature saves on a lot of digging and time, trust me on that one. I also purchased the Garrett Pin-pointer (Garrett Pro-Pointer) to assist me even further, which saves even more time locating your treasure. With the Garrett Pin-pointer, you don't even have to dig a full hole around the area (flag) most of the time. Just bury the head of your spade a couple of inches away from the flag, lift the ground some and put the Garrett Pin-pointer into the area underneath (of course I have to remove the flag 1st as my flag posts are metal) and if the object is not too deep, you can remove it without digging a full hole. I have only used the (MD) in grassy areas and not in the mountains or beaches as of yet.As for the depth feature on the (MD), I find it very useful, but rarely accurate. On my (MD), the depth usually shows the object deeper than it really is, but I have learned in a short time to adjust for that and can usually figure out about how deep the object is before I start my dig. The (MD) can pick up objects buried deep into the ground (gone as deep as about 10" if not more).I also like the cancellation feature of the (MD). I can tune out iron or other objects if I wish, which comes in very handy in certain areas.The (MD) is light weight and easy to use. It seems to be well balanced and is height adjustable, so the tall and short (such as myself) can use the (MD) with comfort. The arm brace is also comfortable and well designed and helps from tiring out your arm for longer periods of use.I cannot compare this (MD) with others, as I have only used this one, but I believe that this is a well made (MD) and does a great job for the cost. I do not regret my purchase and would definitely recommend it to others.

Ok I purchased this metal detector to locate property corner markers and wile I’m at it get some physical therapy to boot

A nice combination of price and quality. Can be used for both entertainment and for the practical reasons.

This is by far the most amazing and awesome metal detector. I have found rings, coins, nuggets and junk!! It finds things even deeper then expected, mostly uads with a 4 inch gold coil , and I'm blown away. Found a 1931 rail road nail 2 foot down in hard compact soil among other thing's. That was My first find! Loving this thing. Truly impressed value with so many features and capabilities. If ur need a dependable metal detector for best value and upgrades.. this is it. There's a number of different coils as well. Highly recommend the 4inch coil

First of all this is a great low price detector when it works as it should. But I went detecting and it was misty out. I know the box isn't waterproof but I figured the light mist was fine. About 20 minutes in it just shut off. When I turned it on it shut off after about two seconds. After a twenty minute drive home it worked in my yard. Tried again a week later and it worked for 15 minutes then shut off. It had new batteries in it. If I let it set for a couple minutes it works for another 10 to 15 minutes then shuts off again. I'm sure it's my fault, but I assumed it would be fine as it wasn't a heavy enough mist that would make me nervous about using my phone or anything else. If you purchase I wouldn't recommend using it in misty or foggy conditions. That alone eliminates many days of my free time to use it as I usually only get time off if it's damp out (I'm a custom combiner) but if that isn't a deal breaker then it's a great detector

This metal detector is easy to use. I bought it for my 13 year old son for Christmas and found it to be usable right out of the box. I had watched some of the Youtube videos on this so was able to explain how everything worked. We did Christmas in FL this year so he got to try it out on the beach. Nothing of value there, but he did find a few small "treasures" that he added to a box of things he's keeping that he's found with the detector (who knew there are so many allen wrenches laying all over the place? We found two already). In our own backyard he found some coins, at least one of every denomination.This is lightweight and you can swing it for a long time. It has different tones for different types/sizes of metal objects it finds. I am going to install a fence in backyard, so used it to locate the surveyor pins that are located at the property corners, about 6 - 8 inches in the ground. Way cheaper than having the property resurveyed.Overall a great unit. I would buy this again and have no regrets about buying it.

Bought as a novice hobbyist (to find the Spanish gold on shores of east coast). This is my first metal detector and seemed good enough to get started, and it really is great value for the money to get started. We have used it for two weekends on the beach. Had a great time with the wife tooling around waiting for the massive find of hidden treasure. So far found roughly $2 in loose change. So, temper the dollar signs and dancing buckets of gold ringing in the head. Overall a great addition to the weekend at the beach and productive exercise
