Bounty Hunter Discovery 2200 Metal Detector with 4-Tone and 9-Segment Target Identification

It works great I love it I haven't found anything worth saying but love it going out today to use it.
It is a good starter model. Not the best but if you are just starting it is alright.
Seems like a pretty good metal detector for the price that I paid for it plus it came with a pen pointer to thanks.
This detector is a really great detector, easy to use and we have found many many things with it, with great accuracy.
The unit arrived on time and in good shape; was easy to assemble; has a nice display; and is sturdy, lightweight, and easy to operate.

What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Bounty Hunter Discovery 2200 Metal Detector with 4-Tone and 9-Segment Target Identification

An extremely useful and easy to use product, light weight and user friendly. Great fun.
The length is perfect for me and did not have that kink in my back from bending slightly like I do with my other detector.
This was suggested for me as a beginner. It is lightweight. Who knows what I will find!
Lightweight and can be folded compactly to easily carry it with you.
Very length because of what I have to lean back so that it is above the surface.

What customers say about "Detection"

Bounty Hunter Discovery 2200 Metal Detector with 4-Tone and 9-Segment Target Identification

Found 6 bullets in about an hour, some of which were buried 4-6 inches down. Did a great job in the water.
The actual detector is fairly accurate. Also, I appreciate how you can easily take the batteries out.
Sensitivity is the best, use it with headphones. Lightweight, a decent value for the money.
I've only found a few pennies, a nickel, some rusty nails, pull tabs and some aluminum bits so far. It seems to me that it is looking only on the surface and in the depths it sees nothing.
Detection is inaccurate which is very annoying because you have to dig extra pits.

What customers say about "Features"

Bounty Hunter Discovery 2200 Metal Detector with 4-Tone and 9-Segment Target Identification

4 audio signals that perfectly divide things by different signals.
I like that I can use the coil underwater to find something unusual.
I am very pleased with the metal detector because I have the opportunity to search under water thanks to a waterproof coil.
Works great on dry sand on beach. The only issue i have is the coil size. It's good for about 6" of depth.
Depth indicator works with interference. At the same place can change indicators.
