A great emergency tool

(5 out of 5) by Duncan Iowa on Jan 14, 2009 (SF Bay Area)
An excellent tool for it's size and function. Radio reception varies with location, of course. The Crank/Solar charging is all I need. I gave 10 of these radios as gifts this year (in all colors). I'm an American Red Cross volunteer, and this radio is always in my go bag for deployments.

emergency radio

(4 out of 5) by S. J. Peluso on Jan 12, 2009 (Kent, WA)
Although it is much smaller than it looks, it seems satisfactory. I gave it as a Christmas gift. I may order another one for myself.

Lacks one basic function

(2 out of 5) by Bertram W. Shaw on Jul 12, 2008 (Jacksonville, Florida)
This is a nice radio and works pretty well but lacks the one basic function it was purchased for. It has no alert function to turn on and broadcast emergency warnings! So it is a mistake to call this an "emergency radio" even if it is endorsed by the American Red Cross.
