Hello, i am new to tesoro's though i have read about them for years and nearly purchased a few different models on a few occasions. My 8 year old daughter was really showing interest in MD'ing towards the end of this last season and I think it may be about time to get her hunting next season. Unfortunately my ML Explorer II weighs as much as she does and my ol' Bounty Hunter isn't much lighter. She is big (tall) for her age but I am still looking for a lightweight machine that performs well and is not overly complex. After much thought, I can't think of a better option than a tesoro.

I have one and let me tell you that you better get ready to have her out dig you on most occasions. The Silver uMax is a coin killer, and deep too.

All I can say is to have her simply use it listen to the tones, and dig everything at first, then she will get it and start to dig silver and all the good stuff. Merry Christmas.
The silver U max is great for kids as it is avery good machine (except in salt water) and only has the two control knobs that are easy to use and understand....Couldn't do better.

Hi. I'm a 62 year old kid, and I love my Silver umax. I was a good boy this year, and Santa bought me a 5.75" coil for mine. It made it a little lighter and I can't wait until mommy lets me go outside and try the new coil.
Thank you for the replies and reassurance fellas. I will be buying with confidence now. Now comes the fun part of keeping an eye out for good deals until spring gets here. The lifetime warranty is the icing on the cake. Thanks again, JJ
