It does not deliver

The buttons and menu are confusing. Few weeks of trying to use the 540 and I still struggle with the basics (start, stop), let alone the turn-by-turn navigation (which is the only reason I wanted a bike computer). The map is also not clear at all. Also, on 2 occasions the GPS dropped so the record is missing large chunks of my ride. So now I ride with my Garmin watch again, and frankly not sure why I should bother bringing the 540 anymore. I just wish I could get turn by turn directions on my Epix or on Garmin Connect which are far superior products.
I received this device as a Christmas gift, and I am thoroughly pleased. The Edge 540 stands out as the most remarkable Garmin model currently available.
I bought a new 530 some time ago. For some reason the charging port developed a fault, I contacted by phone, was instantly given details and faculty to return the faulty device, 4 days later I have new 540 in my possession. No questions asked. I am impressed with this service, well done Garmin.
