    Overall, this is a good product. It functions as it is suppose to. I sometimes use it as a radio for work since I am not allowed to listen to anything using my computer. However, if you don’t want to crank it every 10 mintues, I suggest getting a radio that plugs into the wall. The cell phone charging function is kind of annoying since it takes over 10 minutes of cranking to receive a minute of talk time. I guess that is better than nothing during an actual emergency if you happen to end up with no cell phone charge. All of my coworkers and friends are impressed with this crank radio and often ask me where I bought it. It is a nice conversation piece during a non-emergency! I recommend buying this device or something similar to prepare yourself for a possible emergency.

    I bought 3 of these to give as christmas presents. Everything worked well on them and the flashlight lasted a surprisingly long time after a minute or two of turning the crank.

    This worked well. The solar charger worked as well as the crank. The radio reception was as expected for close and far away stations. Good for emergencies.

    This little radio is so small! It’s about the size of a hotdog with a bun. Maybe smaller. Anyways, it is very cute and works GREAT. Perferct for the beach or pool, or even inside at work. IT’S A MUST HAVE.
