When I purchased this unit I had done quite a bit of research on this type of product. One of the negatives that showed up frequently was dissatisfaction with the menu system and lack of ease of use. I do agree the menu system leaves some to be desired and it does take some time to "figure it out" with time spent reviewing the owners manual. Once you do get it figured out however, the rest is nearly perfect. Excellent sound with OEM speakers, love the gps, just put the bluetooth in for my iPhone and really love it. I would definitely buy a newer Kenwood version of this product in the future.
