The walkie talkies were a cute idea and concept for my 3 year old that loves everything Paw Patrol, she just wanted them in pink (for Skye and Marshall or Skye and Everest) instead of blue for boys (Marshall and Chase). Requires 2 AAA batteries that were not included. She left the walkie talkies on overnight, which I did not discover until I was hearing strange static noises and weird conversations from 5am-9am. Scared the life out of me! It took a full hour for me to figure out where the sounds were coming from. Men’s voices could be heard, full conversations. I have no idea how these walkie talkies were picking up on them and playing them, the talking buttons were not being pressed. There’s no radio dial or frequency on these walkie talkies, so this is highly alarming! And if I could hear these men talking, could they hear us talking in my household?! Disturbing! I wish I could take them back to Best Buy, but I’ve already thrown the packaging away.

My daughter is a big Paw Patrol fan. When she saw these she had to get them. The puppy design is great and use is very easy for small children. Sound and radio quality...not very good. The volume is very low and the first words of your conversation get cut off due to transmission delay. If this will be more of a toy for your little one, then this is a must buy. If you are looking for walkie-talkie functionality, you will need to look elsewhere.

The toys work pretty well for the price that we paid. The kids have to talk right up against the mic on the bottom of the toy to be heard and unfortunately the mic duals as the speaker. Overall good, for the price.

For the price you can't beat it. Also my friends son plays with it all the time.

Range is iffy. The mic pickup is way too small. If you don't talk right into the tiny hole at the perfect distance it does nothing. Thinking about drilling and modding. Overall just another cheaply made object with PP branding.
