    We bought this when hurricane Irma was going to approach. It was a life saver keeping up with the news when power was out.

    The radio has everything you need for communication in an emergency. I haven’t had to use it but did try it out. The crank is a great add on.

    We were in a tornado warning when I realized I really needed a way to keep in touch with weather bulletins if we had a power outage. This has a crank, battery and/or solar power. Also, you can charge your cell phone. It has everything needed for back up power!

    It actually gets radio stations, more than I can say for the ones in the stores that sell everything! I am very impressed with it. It really was more than I thought it would be, very pleasantly surprised. It does everything it advertised it would.

    Really nice radio. Works nicely, sounds very well, brightest light I have seen in a flashlight, the flashing sos could be very useful. You don’t need to be in hurricane country. Anyone could use this great radio!
