Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this radio for my Dad who likes to have a transistor radio handy whenever the weather gets bad. This one looks nice, runs on batteries or dc. It has weather updates. You can plug you USB in and charge your phones It's got a hand crank for power as well as a solar charger and a light. My Dad loves it. Radio reception is nice and clear and has an antenna.

We have set this aside for emergencies since it operates via AA batteries, it's own internal, rechargeable battery and AC current. A solar panel, flashlight, siren, and red blinking light. A real bargin.

I bought because of the solar power option. I plugged in when I first got it and tested all the different options, emergency siren, flashlight open, Flood light option radio (am/fm) and weather channel all works. You could use batteries for this but since it has solar power option I havent put any in it. I have since used this only on solar power for flood light and radio. Works great. I did test out the crank option and it appears to work (charge light lights up)....Havent truly tested this option. There is also a USB port to charge phone. Not sure if Im using that correctly because it did not charge my phone or fire tablet...that is my only negative. Overall thought this was worth the price.

i really love this little radio. it has all the bells and whistles i needed. the only thing that didn't work was the temperature. it always says 65F even if the weather is hot. i dont mind as long as the wind up works, it has a weather band too which i like. the solar charger holds up pretty good. its a good buy

I bought this little radio after my move to the south. After going through my first hurricane without power, I decided that I wanted to have a radio to keep up to date on weather reports and have something to charge my phone if need be. This little radio has a lot of great features and the reception was good too. We have used it a couple of times in power outages. I would recommend and purchase again.

I like the fact that it can be used without power and it has a flashlight on it although I forget about those things I never use them when I need to. The only thing I’m disappointed in is the sound quality.

This portable radio has so many nice features...plug in or battery operated. Very compact...has a light, siren and also energy efficient rechargeable feature.

It's a great radio for general use. The cranking power featuremakes it great for emergency use. The flashlight and siren are an added benefit.

I recently discovered my old radio no longer worked and with predicted hurricanes where I live, decided this would be a good investment, especially since it had the cell phone charger. I had read the reviews, and decided for approx $25 I had nothing to lose and was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the product. Would recommend.

This works, reception is fairly good. Plus all the bells and whistles seem to work so for what its intended, a solid buy. That said, this is not something you want to listen to for an extended basis. The sound is just too tinny and there's no way to adjust it. But it is an emergency radio sooo...

Got this for Fl Hurricane season because of all the features packed into such a small package. Havent used it yet but a lot of thought went into it. Runs on AA batteries and has internal rechargeable ones also with a hand crank. Contains a solar light and has standard FM and a weather band. Hope I wont have cause to use it but glad I have it

Got this yesterday, put in batteries, tried everything and it worked. Switched over to rechargable batteries, and folded out the solar panel to charge the rechargable batteries. Today the radio does not work. Not AM,FM, OR WB. The light turns on, but tuner does not function. The lights work on both battery and rechargable. But I didn't buy it for the lights. I bought it for the radio. Piece of junk. Sorry to say.

I bought this for my special needs brother who is fascinated with the weather. It was easy for him to use and to listen to. Also has nice extras a flashing siren, flashlight, wind up no power, thermometer , am , fm, weather.

Perfect for my use: I leave it on all night by the koi pond to keep raccoons away, and it is working! Plus it has all the bells and whistles you need for an emergency, Great value!

This radio will work well during an emergency but the sound quality is just okay. Disapointed that it does not sound alarm to announce a pending emergency.

Bought as a gift. This radio was a hit. The sound is tinny but what do you expect from a small cheap radio.

Wish I had this unit before my first power failure in a number of years 1st week of July 2021. I had a radio but not enough of the right size batteries. and the radio had no weather band anyway. I originally just wanted a radio with a weather band. however, I found this unit; with multiple ways to power it. An AC adaptor/charger (to charge the internal battery). a crack (Dynamo) to charge the internal battery a solar cell ... and you can use 3 AA batteries if needed. It also has bright flashlight/reading lights a thermometer and a siren. all in with the AM/FM/Weather radio, cell phone charger port. It is not heavy or bulky and fairly easy to put in a go-bag or just carry. The audio quality is good for spoken word monaural audio. but for emergency situations works well

Radio signal is crystal clear, lights are bright and useful, great for outdoor use with optional power sources.

Efficient, compact and versatile with plug-in or battery operated and solar recharge too! Great for the money.

light weight, compact, many features, great price for functionality
