    We bought 2 sets for our camping kids, so everyone can communicate. They're really excited, but we can't review on how well they work.

    I would not purchase it again because of the outside interference from strangers using the same network. The battery doesn't hold a charge very long either.

    Gave these to my sister in law to use out on their farm, easier to keep in touch with each other then using cell phones, these are rechargeable so no need to keep up with batteries, so far working out well.

    I purchased these to use as a line of communication for my businesses. My building is no more that 2000 sq ft and they are charged every night after being used from 8-10pm daily. After only 3 months they will no longer fully charge and shut off immediately after trying to push the talk buttons when removed from power and powered on. They were okay while they worked, the call button was extremely annoying and is in a location that’s easy to accidentally push. Overall, I’m not really happy that I paid $50 and only get 3 months out of these. Unfortunately, it looks like my company will have to eat the cost because of Best Buy’s short refund policy.

      Hey Chelsea, while Best Buy might have a short refund policy Midland Radio holds a 1 year warranty on almost all of our products and the T51VP3 actually holds a 3 year warranty. Please give us a call so we can discuss your communication needs. The T51VP3 is certainly not the radio I would suggest for business use inside a building like you mention. You would want at least the LXT600VP3 or even an actual business radio. Our team can talk through your needs and help find you a radio that will work perfectly for you. Call us at 816-241-8500 between the hours of 8:00am - 4:30pm CST Monday - Friday and we would be happy to help! MidlandUSA

    This product works as advertised and was easy to setup. Five minutes, max, to first use! Fantastic range. You could have multiple parties scattered at an event or activity and remain in touch. The kids love playing with them around the house as well!

    Two-way radios worked very well during a long trip that required us to use two vehicles. Communication was very easy. Plan to use these for communication in town as well.

    Used these on a family road trip between 2 cars. This was great as some areas had dead spots for cell service (surprisingly). Overall would recommend for a cheap 2 way radio solution. Battery lasts about 1.5 days when left on for 8hrs a day. Just bring the charger with you on trips.
