Review: MT-XR detector is a high quality source of FUN! - I purchased several Dr. Ötek products around New Year's Day 2020 with my Christmas stash of desertcart gift cards: an MT-XR detector, an M-6 pinpointer, a digger tool, and a waterproof bag. All of these Dr. Ötek products are of very nice, high quality and even better than I expected after reading many favorable reviews that noted good material and build quality. I would also add good design and obvious thought given to ease of assembly, good ergonomics, and ease of use. Very well done with this MT-XR detector and also the other Dr. Ötek products mentioned. For several years, I have been on the sidelines researching metal detecting as a possible pastime and hobby for leisure and fun in my retirement. Now, I am diving in or digging in with my older brother, also retired and looking for fun activities that get us moving and into the great outdoors more often. This MT-XR detector may not be the Rolls Royce of detectors, but it is truly very good and it will definitely give you many, many hours of cheap and adventurous fun, especially if like me, you want to do some peaceful detecting and digging for that occasional "treasure" find in solitude or with a friend or family partner to comb over an old place for some unexpected finds and adventure that will not cost you a small fortune. Accuracy in this price range and in even higher price ranges is sometimes hit or miss. The MT-XR has taken me to good and clear targets from 2 to 4 inches in the first day when testing it in our backyard. I must stress at this point that the pinpointer function in the detector is truly an excellent feature, and helped me a great deal in deciding whether it might be worth digging on a signal or not. However, combining the detector pinpointer with the great functions of the M-6 pinpointer to examine my holes dug and removed dirt, and alternating with the detector to confirm that I had dug the only buried source of the signal, the digging effort was made twice as fun and my confidence level twice as high. So, I highly recommend that you also get an excellent M-6 pinpointer or another high quality pinpointer to use along with this detector. And while I am at it and plugging or vouching for Dr. Ötek gear, I also recommend that you get an excellent digger tool like the Dr. Ötek, a Lesche, or other good, well-made and sturdy digger. Sincerely, you cannot go wrong with the Dr. Ötek. As a big guy, I would have to use some serious effort to bend or break it, but why would I try to? Sort of like seeing if I can bend my smartphone in half. Common sense dictates that everything has its eventual failure points. I want it to really last, and I think it will, if I take good care of it like any tool. Within the first minute after I started up the new detector on all-metal and maximum sensitivity, in our backyard I found a 1982 penney (copper vs. zinc also in that year) at 2 inches. About 10 minutes later, I found a copper 1971 penney, also at 2 inches. I picked up many more signals (30+) indicating coins and possible silver to depths of 8 inches and deeper (probably 10 inches max). I may go after them later, but did not want to irritate my wife with too many holes and a totally dug up yard. I also ventured to our front yard to test various discrimination settings. Again, many indications of silver coins (quarters and dimes?) deeper than 6 to 8 inches. I dug up shallower items, including a pull tab, a couple of small aluminum curtain brackets, a sawed off threaded 1/4 inch section of a small bolt, and a booger of an iron nail about 3 and 1/2 inches long. So, while I cannot yet prove there are silver coins at least on some of those deeper signals, I am confident that some are there a little deeper, as the MT-XR indicates. Again, metal detecting is sometimes hit or miss, but I believe this MT-XR is capable of getting you to many targets up to 8 or 10 inches that will be fun to dig up to identify and add to your collection. I look forward to finding some buried "treasure" with my brother and grandchildren. Stressing again, this thing can bring a lot of leisurely fun in the great outdoors either solo or with someone else to share the fun, adventurous toil, and nice fresh air. I hope you find this helpful! Cheers!
Review: Great Metal Detector with a Low Price - After purchasing and using the Dr Otek Pinpointer with an old metal detector that I had, I decided to find a new metal detector. Since the Pinpointer worked great I stayed with the Dr Otek brand when looking for the metal detector. I purchased the Dr. Otek Lightweight Metal Detector, model MT-XR. Right out of the box it was easy to assemble, sturdy, full of features that my old metal detector did not have. I had not used the older one for 20 years so my use of metal detectors was rusty, but was easy to learn (after reading the operating manual). The reason I was wanting a new metal detector was for locating my home lot corner markers, which are made of iron. The MT-XR made easy work of finding three of the four corners. The fourth corner was where the development builders dumped all their spare nails, screws, flashing trimmings and other metallic items. So the MT-XR was very active throughout that whole area. Since the metal trash and the corner survey rods are iron, I was not able to use the detector’s discriminator feature very well. The soil in my area consists of red clay due to the high iron content of the soil. I was surprised that the iron in the soil does not seem to effect the sensitivity. The three other corner rods were about 8 inches deep and easy to find. After finally getting a survey company to find my fourth lot marker rod I started to ‘Play’ with the MT-XR. The survey company came with their expensive magnetometers and other special devices but after two hours they still could not find the fourth rod so they used the optics and GPS to find it. And yes, they dug down through the nails, screws and other metal trash and there was the metal corner marker for the lot. So metal pieces in the soil has a lot to do with the success of using metal detector. When treasure hunting I guess that’s a good thing. The MT-XR has a water proof lower unit that will allow you to search in shallow water. I put coins in a bucket with six inches of water and the MT-XR detected them with ease. I put a couple of silver coins on the ground and some regular coins and the MT-XR sounds were very different, for each type of metal. Very useful. The metal discrimination feature has the ability to distinguish between different types of metals and is very useful if you are looking for precious metals (coins, jewelry, etc…). I have not had any time to do that as of yet. I did take it to a local lake and used it in the water along the shore and found fishing hooks, a couple of fishing rod guides from the tips of fishing rods and some metal leader. This was all in a few inches of water. There is no beach at this lake so I did not find any jewelry. I purchased this unit for one job, to find a corner marker. I have now found a new hobby. I will update my review as I get out and find new things to find, with it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent customer service makes all the difference
*by I***0 on July 3, 2022*

Update 8/2023: Adding another star for great customer service! DR.ÖTEK followed up with my on my follow-up review below and sent me their MT6 pinpointer for free. I'm impressed at how awesome they've been since my original difficulty with my MT-XR. That pinpointer is great and I have a 5-star review waiting for Amazon's approval for it right now. Update 4/2023: Bringing the review up from 1 star to 3. After several months following the posting of my original review (after it became the most popular negative review of the product, catching the manufacturer's attention), DR.ÖTEK reached out to me and offered to send me a replacement unit. I accepted and they shipped me the bare detector, not the kit that I had originally ordered, but that's ok since it didn't cost me anything but my time. Unfortunately by the time I received it and had a chance to put it together, the weather had turned and the ground had begun to freeze for the winter. I was finally able to give it a try a couple of weeks ago and immediately noticed a difference. Within one hour, my daughter and I unearthed two "treasures" from our back yard, one part of a fancy old brass lamp and the other a copper spout-shaped object that I'd say weighs about 3 ounces and had been tooled. Both of these were buried around 5 inches down. I used the pinpoint mode to help "zero in" on the objects which was helpful, but not terribly accurate. I nearly missed the copper thing until I expanded my dig outward a few inches, so I think rather than the intense ringing being detected in the center of the coil, it was closer to the bottom-left edge of it. If I can repeat that behavior, I'm thinking about marking that point of the coil with some marker paint as the true "center". But I'll probably buy a separate pointer detector too. Coin tests like I had done previously were much more accurate than with the first detector, so I guess I definitely received a bad one the first time around. I decided to upgrade the review to three stars as I think it's a fair thing to do. I'm still frustrated by the hours of wasted time and my daughters disappointment the first time around. She had fallen in love with the TV show Expedition Unknown and the idea of finding buried treasure which is what led us to this metal detector. Now her excitement has returned. Original review: I had high hopes for this detector based on the overall rating based on Amazon reviews, the unit's features (the pinpoint mostly), and the cleanliness and user-friendliness of the display and controls. I thought about being charitable with my review and adding stars for those things, even considered adding one for the digging tool, which while small is actually pretty cool and I think rather well-made. BUT after three hours of frustration with multiple repeatable hits and finding nothing, not even a bottle cap or nail I've decided the DR.ÖTEK deserves ZERO stars. But that may be unfair you might think, not knowing what my settings were or if I was trying to detect around an old iron mine or something. No, it was in my average backyard. Farmland filled in with sandy dirty fill about 120 years ago. I did some fairly detailed testing to see what was wrong with my unit. First, I tried a few metal objects waving at various distances from the coil with the detector laying on a plastic table about 20" from the ground and far from any metal. It gave some decent results - my gold wedding ring came in at about 55-70 and was detectable at about 5 inches. Not great but not terrible. This was done at the default sensitivity level of 3. Interesting results with coins and a hefty chunk of silver I have that is about 1/4" thick and roughly the size and shape of a men's western belt buckle. The coins (current US mint pocket change) gave very sporadic results. Sometimes I had to almost brush the coil with a quarter to make the detector respond (ALL METAL mode) and it would regularly bounce all over the scale - 05 to 90+ for something like a penny or quarter. The heavy silver was surprisingly low on the scale - ringing in between 50 and 85, but never in the 90s. I could go on forever with the tests I did - all different materials, every sensitivity setting. But the best test was one my 9 year old came up with. She buried an aluminum arcade token (that we'd been testing with previously as well - I think about the size of a quarter, but thicker) about 2 inches deep in one of five depressions in my yard I'd recently filled in with soil. The game was that I had to detect which spot she'd buried the token in. She had roughed them all up so it was hard to tell which had the buried treasure. Well, I lost the game. DR.ÖTEK failed to detect the token. 2 inches down. We then tried the same test with a nickel and a quarter, both buried at about 3 inches. I got hits on them, but all over the place - 02, 50, 90 etc. Sometimes repeatable, sometimes not. Either way, I'd never try to dig those spots. So we'd miss everything. The ONE use I think this DR.ÖTEK has is to locate a recently dropped piece of jewelry or something. Anything just out of eyesight, hidden by blades of grass. But then, there are much CHEAPER detectors available that I'm sure would do that just as well. I'm contemplating doing a video review of how bad this thing is before I return it and buy either a Fisher, Minelab, or Garrett metal detector.
