| Customer Reviews: Average Rating: 3.5/5 | | Not for long distance...at all!: Rating: 2/5 |
| At best you may get 1/2 of a mile. Not worth the cheap price! The only good thing is they are really small in size. I would buy again for any reason! |
| | Does the job on the cheap, but range nowhere near 5 miles advertised.: Rating: 4/5 |
3.5 stars. I bought these walkies for use on a cruise. The walkies did the job on the ship and I was successfully able to communicate with my friends while on board. There was often static during the calls, and conversations greater than 5 words each way, were difficult to hear. We were able to communicate, because we kept our responses to 1 or 2 word answers. I was able to reach my friends anywhere on the ship, the Carnival Elation. Once I left the ship and went to Ensenada, Mexico, I was unable to reach anyone in my party. I got nowhere near the 5 mile range advertised.
Having never used a walkie before, I found the setup and use extremely user friendly. I did not have to replace the battery for the entire length of the cruise (4 days), and I used the walkie multiple times per day. I did turn it off after going to bed.
I purchased the pair from Radioshack for $20, and believe that for the money, you can't expect more than you get from this radio.
Summary:
Pros: low price, user friendly, lightweight, uses three AAA batteries
Cons: Quality of call, range is nowhere near 5 miles as advertised.
I would recommend this product to anyone who wants a cheap way to communicate with others, for short (no more than 5 words per response) conversations, within a 1 mile radius.

| we use these at a kids' summer camp for our counselors to keep in touch with one another. They use the batteries up kind of fast, but other than that, they are great, especially for the cost. |
| | perfect: Rating: 5/5 |
| the range is fair, the fact that you can use regular battery make all the money |
| | Radio: Rating: 2/5 |
| The radio doesn't have any where near the range or clarity it claims to have. Other than being compact which was a great feature, the radio is no better than a cheap radio you would give a kid to play with. |
