The UK’s most useful metal detecting resource
Detector reviews, club directories, supplier listings, FLO contacts and the legal know-how to detect responsibly – all in one place, from real detectorists.
Our Mission
We are honest about how each review is put together. Some detectors are ones we have owned or used ourselves, and those are clearly marked as first-hand reviews. The rest are in-depth research-based reviews, built from manufacturer specifications, long-term owner reports, forums and field testing. Every review shows which type it is, so you know where the verdict comes from. If we do not know something, we will tell you.
The aim is simple: give you enough useful, honest information to decide what to look at next.
