I bought this because I have land in a remote mountainess area of Vermont where there is no cell phone service.. it works great to keep in contact with who ever is on the land with me, we are able to stay in contact while in different areas of the property, the range is farther then expected for such a hilly mountainess area. Not only do I recommend but the price is worth it, I would pay double if I had to.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They advertise these to reach 36 miles. I got outside and started walking down the road. There were no curves and no obstruction, it was as straight and clear as it could be. I walked almost a thousand feet and that’s as far as they will work. I would have been tickled if they would have just made a mile, but these walkie talkies just can’t do it. I definitely do not recommend, go with another brand..

I have enjoyed using it so much that I have bought 2 more sets. We have a total of 3 sets now. The range is good on the high setting even when going through several sets of walls and concrete floors. We get little to no interference with other people on the channel we use. We have had ours now for about 2 years and they still work well. We use them everyday.

I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY DAD THAT IS BLIND SO WHEN HE NEEDS ME I AM OUT SIDE HE HAS A WAY TO GET HOLD OF ME, THE BUTTONS ON THE SIDE IS BIG ENOUGH THAT HE CAN FIND IT AND IT BEEPS LET HIM KNOW THAT HE CAN TALK. HOW FAR I CAN GO WITH IT IS NOT BAD YOU CANT GO 10 MILES WITH IT BUT I THINK IT IS BECAUSE I LIVE IN A HILLY AREA. BUT IF ARE OUT IN THE FEILD OR IN THE WOODS YOU SHOULD BE OK. THE BATTARY LIFE IS NOT BAD . I WENT 2 DAY ALMOST 3 DAYS BEFORE I HAD TO CHARGE IT. BUT THAT IS WITH NOT USE IT MUCH. ITS NOT BAD THE HEAD SET FEELS LITTLE OFF TO ME THAT COULD JUST BE ME. IT WORTH THE MONEY IF YOU ARE GOING TO DO SIMPLE THINGS WITH IT.

These radios have every feature I could possibly want and more. I’m surprised that they were so affordable and included so many useful accessories. My only complaint is their advertised range. Even at full charges, they barely connected at twenty miles. Thankfully I don’t really need them any further than that.

I realize that this is a fairly inexpensive radio set, but using them for a day the headset causes you to have an extremely sore ear. This does not get better with continued use. It also only remains in place if you are not moving your head. As I bought the warranty I will not correct this problem until it runs out. If the radios last that long I will get replacement headsets from the company that I purchase my motorcycle headsets from.

We farm in east central Kansas and needed portable radios we could use for a variety of activities sometimes miles apart. These radios fit the need well. One radio with the hand microphone moves from whatever the main equipment is that day or week(s) and the other stays at home or if we are shuttling equipment around. Using RAM mounts to easily move one from tractor to tractor.

I bought this so be and my buddy could communicate easier. It works good as long as the weather is permitting. Since I live wear it rains and snows a lot I use it when the weather is nice and it reaches straight through town. Otherwise weather is a major factor in if it reaches where you want it to. Which I was surprised. Otherwise works great.

I’m returning them. They’re worse than my 20yr old 2ways. They have a high pitched noise that comes in when they are more than 10ft apart, and it doesn’t matter what channel or settings…. It won’t go away. My old radios get clearer reception from farther away than these do.

I bought this unit for my son when we go deer hunting. I have a pair of these that I bought eight years ago and last year I finally had to buy a pair of batteries. One was still good, but it is nice to have a spare. I always carry extra aa batteries with me just in case. There alot of features on these walkie talkies that I thought I would never use, but I do use more features than I thought. Small and compact is what I like. In hilly and dense forests your range will drop to about a few miles. And I like the fact I can order the battery packs online and pick them up at the store. The ear phones could be a little nicer but for the money I can't complain.
