    Best price for rechargable walkies. Comes with a split USB cable to charge both walkies at the same time and uses AAA batteries so don't have to worry about proprietary replacements. Used them for when my mom was sick and needed an easy way for her to signal us for assistance from downstairs.

    This was a perfect set for the kids to play with outside and work so much better than the cheaper kid walkie talkies you buy in the kids section of some stores. Rechargeable batteries are a definite plus as well.

    Purchased to use while our company phones were down. Worked well. Heard someone else's conversation on one channel, but was able to fix by choosing another channel.

    Bought these for a two car road trip. We stayed reasonably close together and never experienced a problem with reception. The only problem was the volume level. We had to be careful to hold the radios close and enunciate very clearly to be heard and understood, and we had to use the beeper to get the other person's attention before starting a conversation so they could hold the radio close ... otherwise we couldn't talk.

    Purchased these two radios to use with four others that we previously purchased from Best Buy. Our entire extended family all used the radios while were on a cruise. These two radios worked great with the four we already had. They worked great on the ship and on land during ports of call in Mexico and Bahamas. Great value!

    The product worked really well with exception of the rechargeable batteries it came with as well as the charger (very cheap). I just replaced it with Duracell batteries and it worked fine.

    We purchased these for 4 wheeling and hiking in Moab. They worked great! No one got lost. Be sure to charge them every night, when they were not in use, even though the batteries lasted about 36 hours, just in case.

    Bought these for our scout trip to Colorado. Great to keep in communication with the other vehicle when driving and we had no cell phone reception. They did take a while to charge, searched the internet to see if this was common, it was. Charge for 8 hours initially even though the unit still indicates it is charging. Good for hiking and traveling to keep in contact with everyone.

    For the price, you get a functional walkie that has some range and you can even understand what the other person is saying!

    They seem to love playing with these things. And I love the dual charging cable. They only play with them around the house, so obviously there is no problem with reception. We haven't really tried them long distance, though. Sorry.
