Home > Consumer Reviews > Midland 22540 Headset Speaker with Boom Microphone

It appears to work well with my my VOX Midland radios though I haven't used it to much. If your in a situation where your hands are busy doing something else and you don't have a free hand to operate your radio, this is the answer!

Yes these are cheaply made as evidenced by the price. They are basically a toy, but the people who complain that they don't work on CB radios and the like, simply didn't read the Description which states "with boom microphone will make conversing on your Midland family radio easier and more convenient." These are ONLY for FRS Radios from Midland, but may work on other FRS radios as long as they have the same plug arrangement. BTW, FRS stands for Family Radio Service as in Motorola TalkAbouts and the like, NOT CBs. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Good headsets like this cost anywhere from about $75 up.

This headphone is designed to be used in car, not helmet. We have it over months and it's quite good and, after reading those reviews, we do take lot of care to handle it, it's definitely a weak-plastic product but it's the price paid.

It does make our conversation (between motorcycle and car) easier on the road.

So, buy it but treat it well and with care.

Poor quality, the headset is VERY uncombfortable and in looks like it's going to tear into pieces just by looking at it.

Works ok , but is a little bulky to use with a motor cycle helmet, would be better if more compact, kind of old tech.
