4 out of 5 stars A ""Must Pack "Radio   November 25, 2008
This is radio that is for your "Must Pack" list whenever you travel. Quality is excellent with solid sound reception for AM, FM and Weather. No need to worry about power if you end up in the wilderness. Just turn the crank and you're back in touch with the world. Just ordered one as Christmas gift for my outdoor-obsessed son in law. It'll be a fixture on his boat and in his golf bag, I am certain. He has to stay in touch with what's happening and this this will make that happen for him.


2 out of 5 stars Can't pick up stations   November 22, 2008
It has wonderful features, but I was unable to pick up my two local NPR stations! We tried and tried, and though we are not more than five miles from one of our local stations, there was absolutely no reception. Perhaps it was just a lemon, because I haven't read this criticism anywhere else. I may try another one, because other than that I thought it was great.

5 out of 5 stars Good buy   November 17, 2008
After the hurricane hit Houston this was a necessity for my family for over a week! Worked just as it was suppose to.


4 out of 5 stars Does almost everything   November 16, 2008
We started playing with this right away, even though it is really for our emergency kit. It is heavy duty and holds a charge real well. We could listen to TV or the radio. It has a goofy port for "charging your cell phone" that we can't figure out. Our cell phones don't hook up to that, and there are no directions. At all. You just open this and play with it. No directions at all. But we got one for each of our grown children too.


4 out of 5 stars Just Right for the Price   November 15, 2008
I originally bought a "Jeep" all weather radio for my husband for Christmas - I thought paying more might mean a better product; not so, the hand crank broke on 2nd use. I then ordered this one - my hubby loves it. It contains everything we would want for an emergency radio; we have no problems picking up any of the t.v., National or local stations. The light is sufficient for an emergency and the Alert would definitely get you out of bed. The only issue we have seen is that we had it on one night and the alarm went off for no apparant reason...If not for that I would have given it 5 stars. I think this is a must for any household that lives in a storm prone area (which seems to be just about anywhere now a days): I definitely feel comfortable going to bed if severe storms are predicted using this radio rather than spending the entire night watching the t.v. which is what I always did in the past...A good buy in my book.
