About the only complaint I have on this is the battery doesn't seem to last very long when its not plugged in. Other than that its simple to use and seems to be well made. The emergency alert is LOUD and gets your attention easily. Overall, good product, I would recommend it.

Love this little guy! Came in handy during Hurricane Beryl. Worked like a charm. Better yet, it provided my special needs daughter with some white noise that she needs in order to sleep well. It’s not a feature, just what happens when there’s no signal on the WX channel.
