Better than cheap ones, not as good as contractor grade. Worked well in the open even at distance lacks power penetrating floors in commercial work applications- but still better than cheaper competitors.

Good product. Recently used these for camping. Your line of sight is definitely your biggest asset or enemy. And apparently the other channels this has access to, you’re going to need a FCC license.

Volume control at low lacking

The volume range does not go very low. I set the volume down to 1 and it is much higher than I needed it to be, if I move it lower to zero it is muted. My intent for these is to use them out in the woods deer hunting to communicate with the rest of the group. The volume setting of 1 is higher than needed for this quiet activity.
They are light weight and would benefit being used in noisy places with the volume range. Have not tested the range distance yet but I would not expect much reading the other posts.

We purchased these for a week long road trip in the hope we could avoid using our phones constantly. These worked great for about 3 days and then one of them stopped holding a charge.
We considered it might be just chance, since everything else seemed fine with the radios, but this was a bad time for something like this to stop working on us.

There's no way you'll get 20 miles of coverage unless you've got it connected to huge antenna, but it's is good for at least a mile. I use this mostly for group rides with my local car club and it works great

I think these are great. They are easy to use and have a long battery life. I only wish they had the weather radio. But for my purposes they are perfect.

These Walky Talkies Work Terriffic. We have a RV so when my husband is backing up in our Camping Space he needs careful guidance.So I go to the very back with a Walky talky & he has one too. It really helps us park carefully & just right.We have many uses for them for safety & communication.
