Several tools in one, inexpensive for the uses it fulfils.

* edited as of 5/10/18. The company’s customer service was fantastic. After my review they had me send the radio back and sent me a new one. I’ve had the new one for a week now and no problems to report. So far so good!
Wish I would have spent the money for a better product. This never held a charge and I ultimately threw it away as it never worked after the first month. I followed the instructions to keep it charged and it did not live up to its promise.
I’m a wilderness educator and I’ve been considering adding a hand crank radio to my pack for some time. I considered Midland and the Red Cross radios before deciding to give this one a chance.
This radio is compact, relatively light and works very well. Radio reception is excellent as is the audio.
Worth the money, and as good as its more expensive counterparts.

Nice that it has a plug in to recharge
Surprised at just how well this little guy works. Last snow storm we lost power and realized we had no battery emergency radio for updated weather reports, news and just plain entertainment so we bought this one. It last a long time on a single charge and I love the added insurance of the hand crank and solar power back ups as well as the LED light and charging port. Surprisingly it picks up multiple local radio stations on AM as well as FM clearly and more importantly our local emergency broadband station. I appreciate the old school dial to adjust in each station manually not relying on a digital scanner that can't be fine tuned to the clearest frequency. I do recommend this as part of your camping gear, stowed in your car , in your bug-out-bag and/or in your emergency kit at home. Best time to prepare is before you need it because when you do need will probably be to late.
