Man on the beach with a Metal Detector

All-purpose metal detectors are the most popular, versatile, and easy to operate. But there are metal detectors specifically made to find gold, go to depths of 200ft. underwater, or search specifically for relics and caches. What one person considers the "best" may not be the best for you.

This is why reviews are so important – learn from the experiences shared by others.
