Vx3 is twice the machine the at pro is unless you need a waterproof detector.

Twice the price does NOT equal twice the performance. Fact! Nice try though!

Next!

If the VX3 is nearly as good as a dfx then it is twice the machine the AT Pro is.

If you don't like the vx3 I'll be glad to put on a disguise and buy the at pro and trade you. Since some people on here think the at pro is better they would agree that's a deal of a lifetime. (NOT) whites machines feel well made unlike the cheap plastic at pro. Any machine can find metal, some sound horrible like the ace 250/350/at pro, I'm not saying the Garretts machine are bad, I just think whites machines are better

I am so frustrated I got the VX 3 today. And it came with a coil that doesn't even work with that model. It fits it but its not meant for the V series. It is at 13 inch dd ultimate coil. That is meant for the MXT and the DFX and M6. So now I have to try to sell that coil on Craigslist to try to get a stock coil for it. It is just really crappy I didn't know it was the wrong oil until I went out and try to use it I could not pinpoint for crap.
