    Work as described. Radio reception is strong. Light is nice and bright...Well bright enough anyway. And the battery can be recharge by hand crank and solar, and last pretty long.

    I can now listen to the am stations that I like. My old portable was very scratchy & even the electric radio has a hard time receiving the am stations in our home. The clock, light & NOAA weather band are big bonuses too.

    Small, everything works as claimed, nice appearance, solar, crank, triple AAA battery slot, good antennae, easy to read dial, buttons OK-not great, does what it is supposed to do, so many others at much higher prices really do the same. Best Buy got it to me a day earlier than promised with overnight shipping. Support Best Buy as I do to keep the best brick and mortar store in business for a long time.

    Being that I live alone and am 71, it was a relief to have this multipurpose radio when Hurricane Irma was heading my way and the electricity went out. Best Buy even shipped it a week early without my asking them to do so, and at no additional cost, It is a good small affordable radio/flashlight/clock/phone charger.

    I purchase this radio online and told my family about it and they all ended up getting one too; it has multiple ways to charge in the event of a longer power outage . In total we have 4 now for camping and emergency use.

    This radio will live in my earthquake bag. If needed, it will allow me to not only be able to get radio reports but also charge my cell phone.

    Purchased this for a hunting trip out west. When I got it tried it to listen to a baseball game. Put regular batteries in it they did not last 15 minutes. Tried to crank and charge the battery for use, that would barely make the flashlight work. Not a good buy.

    I was looking on line for a radio to replace the one I got from Radio Shack years ago. I stumbled upon this one and thought the features and sale price would be a good combination. It is a lot smaller than I thought it would be but that can be an advantage if you are a camper, etc. It seems to do all that is advertised and has surprisingly decent sound for the size of the speaker. I think I will try and recharge my cell phone just to see how long it takes.
