Observations:
The Garrett Ace 250 and the Tesoro Compadre, are both
entry-level machines made for the beginner in mind, but we have to confess after using the Compadre for a while, that there's something more about this machine. It's a fact its lightweight, its great sensitivity to small targets (like gold jewelry) and the one-knob principle, which makes it one of the easiest detector to use currently on the market.
The Conclusion: On this challenge the trophy goes to the Tesoro Compadre for its great performance and value for money. The Garrett Ace 250 scores by being a machine with different coil options and a screen to visually identify targets, something that is well appreciated by beginners. Its only negative aspect is a small signal response delay, but nothing to question the place this machine has already conquered in the Metal detecting community.
