Summary: Good Deal for the Money
Review: I bought a set of these for instead of the more expensive 14 channel ones.

Benefits - Theses radios are small, light-weight, and easy to use. My set uses only 3 AAA batteries (not 4 as stated in the technical description). The antenna folds down and it can easily be stored in a front pocket or clipped onto a belt. The sound quality is good (though I haven't tested the 2 mile range).

Drawbacks - This set has limited channels (2, 8 & 14) so it can be difficult to find a vacant one on trips to amusement parks, shopping. Unfortuanately, they are so easy to use the kids want to play with them all the time (not just when we need them).

I would recommend them for anyone who is looking for a set to communicate infrequently. If you are going to use them a lot, pay more for more channels so you have more options.

Review: I find myself somewhat of a communication freak and just now started my FRS journey. I have used CB for quite a while and was impressed with how well these units worked. I can't discuss price but I could'nt beat what I paid for them with any other brand. 5 stars for the price.... The price did make the units lack in features..3 channels and I wish that they came with a variable squelch, oh well. Nice beep identifier and call tones though. Mkes it easy to tell when its your unit calling you 3 stars for features. I am not sure how other units work as far as distance goes but, I decided to jump in the car, turn the tape recorder on, and drive to my wives work. Turning off the squelch of course. I figure it is about 2 miles away. I could'nt belive I could still hear! Barely but I was there. Anyway so far so good. 5 stars for distance. I like 'em and think anyone not willing to pay more or on a budget to go for it and don't be scared by the low price. It's worth it.

Review: Purchased these for Christmas Gift. They are by far the best items you can get for the price. Great quality, very clear with a two mile range (And I live in the Mountains). Ultra compact with fold down antenna's, Call button sounds like a phone ringing to get the other party. You can even listen in on CB channels and talk with other folks if you want by just a push of a button. Glad I bought this item and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it for anyone wanting a good reliable two way radio for family or kids. Dan in Western NC.
