Summary: A good value
Review: Bought a pair of these 8 or 10 months ago. They work fine though mine had a rubber cap on the base that was so loose that it fell off the one my wife was using never again to be seen. Mine stays in the drawer at home now. It's nice to have but falls off. Lousy design and manufacture.My wife has a problem using it as she doesn't remember NOT to push the buttons with her fingernail. When you do that the button sticks in and has to be hit several times to come out. She's stuck it in the call mode several times and until I've found her and fixed the button it'll continue to transmit forever, driving you nuts. The UP and DOWN buttons will often jump a couple of channels at a time but for the price what do you expect??? Seems to have a good range and battery life. Thank goodness you can lock the unit so it can't have the channel changed or my wife would never figure it out. It's great when shopping and seems to have a fine range even inside buildings. You have to figure out how far from your mouth to hold it and how loud to talk. Otherwise it'll overmodulate so badly that it'll be distorted and you can't understand what's being said. I paid the same after a rebate as the price here and consider it a very good value. I'm buying a pair as a special gift for our grandson as a birthday present in May so he an a neighbor friend a couple of blocks away can use them.

Summary: Best value and performance
Review: Had this delivered when I was State side and immediatley used it when the wife and I visited Disney LA. Got good reception in spite of all the other signals picked up round the park Distance wise the 2 miles is a good estimate and line of sight is needed but you'll be surprised how clear it is even in enclosed spaces. Watch out for the rubber cover at the bottom it esily tears and cracks so eventually you'll have to leave it home so it doesn't fall off. Back in Manila still get a good signal in all the malls and no problem with clarity as long as line of sight is maintained.

Summary: Works great with its' own brand, and with others also!
Review: I am a part of an Law Enforcement group that recently depended on this type of radios. When I first tried these radios, it was in a covered parking garage, with 3 levels of parking spaces. We had people stationed at every corner, at all levels, and next to the nearest building, which was .5 miles away. These radios worked perfectly. The only complant I have is that the bottom cover that keeps on falling off. After my first encounter with those radios, I bought my own, which was the Motorola T289. Since we had radios without codes, we had to use the regular 14 channels. With outside interference, my radio, and along with other brands of radios, worked flawlessly with these. I highly recommend these radios, but if you can find a better deal (which I did), then these radios are only for those who can't shop around.

Summary: kind of good
Review: I didn't read the review until after I bought one. They don't have the privacy channels, channel scan or VOX that the screen originally said. Also the "up to 2 miles" range has a useful range of closer to 1/2 mile with fresh batteries. It is OK for around the house and maybe the mall but don't expect too much at the amusement park. Without the extra privacy channels you will get many people on the 14 channels. Once again, Read the reviews before you buy.

Summary: Good Radio ... Great Price
Review: I picked up a pair of these earlier in year. They perform great. Lack of 38 privacy codes does not hurt performance a bit. Only when channels are completely full(ie..Auburn vs LSU football game) have they ever been needed. At this price they are superb value!!

Summary: don't bother
Review: I read a few reviews saything this was a good, inexpensive radio. Had it for a month and finally got a chase to use it. One of the receivers didn't work...and then did work. Now in the third month it's completely dead.

Summary: breaker breaker ... an understatement
Review: I've owned these FRS radios for less than 6 months and they have had to be sent in for repair of the radio electronics twice. Also, the cover which holds the batteries in is constantly falling off. When they are working, they work fine. The channel lock feature is nice, as is the button which allows you to listen when the incoming signal is not strong enough to be detected. If you're looking for something reliable, you may want to consider others.

Summary: Unwired
Review: Not a bad product, but the technical data claims this item has 38 sub codes, which it seems to not have. Kind of misleading on the technical description.
