    Easy to set up — you won’t need the manual. I love how you can get the weather forecast with one tap. I’m dragging a trailer through tornado alley and this gives me some peace of mind.

    I have had a Midland weather radio most of my adult life and the one I had finally decided it was time to retire. I purchased this model to replace it and it works like a charm. It is easier to reach the controls and read the warning screen than my old one was. I just hope it lasts as long as my old one did. Great quality and price.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I live in Florida. It’s needed
    Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This alarm system knew where I was living and it put itself into the correct codes. I didn’t have to program it all in. The only downfall is that I hear the mariners weather warning. It has nothing to do with where I live or me personally. That can get annoying. You listen as it falls and you hear it is for mariners. I wish they had their own cords. It really is good. We rely on it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Radio is great, manual sucks
    Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    First background! I have been a tech writer for over 40 years and am critical of manuals. The 1 and 2 stars ratings for this product are probably problems with the manual and not the product, because the user did not understand how to program the unit. It is really easy to program, but the manual is very confusing and incorrect. The first thing that appears when you plug in the radio is LANGUAGE, but the first thing listed on the manual is TIME, so you are already confused on how to set the LANGUAGE. Complaints about not being able to receive a station can be corrected by going to the SET CHANNEL area and scrolling the seven channels until a signal is received, but they don't mention why you should use that section of the manual until after you programmed the State and County, and that leaves the user confused. The sound quality is not good, but that is typical for this kind of radio. The voice is computer generated and clear, but strange sounding. Not the problem of the radio. The complaints about the siren being too loud is the typical volume for this type of device. We keep our radio in the bedroom and you need to be able to hear the alarm all though the house, so you need a loud alarm. Not a defect! To summarize, the radio is nice looking, easy to use and easy to program, it's the manual that is giving you problems. Read the manual carefully!

    Love this weather radio. Trusted brand. Pretty easy to set up. Loud alarm. You can choose if you want the alarm to sound or the weather radio for alerts. Wired and backup battery. Many alerts, tornados, floods, hurricane, thunderstorm etc.

    I like this radio because it works great, doesn't drain the batteries inside, and is self silencing after about 10 to 15 seconds.

    This weather alert radio is awesome! Loud enough that we can hear it and gives alerts as soon as they are sent out. It's essential to have out here in the rural area where there is no sirens that can be heard.

    Works really well in our area which is surrounded by hills. Several miles to the different NWS stations, but found one. A lot easier to program than the old ones. I would highly recommend.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Buen sistema de alertamiento y prevención.

    Compré este producto por que la alerta sísmica pública en la zona en la que vivo, se escucha a lo lejos, por lo que a veces no es fácil percibirla (CDMX, México). Cuando la instalé seguí las recomendaciones de los videos de YouTube para poder configurarlo, pero emitía alerta por mensajes desconocidos o falsas alarmas. Por lo que tuve que ingresar al menú de alertas y desactivar prácticamente todas y solo dejar la de emergencia desconocida (que es donde avisa la de terremoto). Hasta este momento no he tenido problemas con falsas alertas y funcionó perfecto en el simulacro del 19 de septiembre de 2022, inclusive sonó antes que los altavoces públicos cuando minutos después sucedió el sismo ese mismo día. Por lo que, con experiencia les puedo decir que es un producto confiable y relativamente fácil de configurar. Solo es prestar atención en desactivar casi todos los avisos y dejar el adecuado para terremoto.

    i paid for this thinking since it has the S.A.M.E. feature it could be programmed to any country but no just within USA or Canada. Worked fine for a couple seconds with batteries in but had to find an adapter and keep it plugged into the wall; if I didn't have an adapter as it comes with the 2 pronged USA charger. The material feels fairly cheap particularly the charging cord and it feels could snap at any moment; the device itself 1. it reminds me of an early 00s CD player you carry around with you, which isn't bad but it doesn't last with the 3x double AA batteries (i tried a couple different ones, brand new) and so i can't really carry around with me and doesn't pick up any of the stations as I am on the other side of the atlantic so if I decided to go to USA to visit my friends or visit my family in Canada I can't even check for potential storms and so on, as even with the antenna doesn't pick up anything, just static and i can't even program with the feature to the region and place I am in 2.when you turn towards you you can't see anything on the display; it has 2 little collapsible legs so it's at an angle but if for example you tried mounting it to the wall you can't see anything. Can't pick up any stations or program it to where I am unfortunately. Tried to see if i could and reading the instructions and watching videos of the same product so I could have a reason to keep it but unfortunately will have to return it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Funciona perfecto en México

    Me tardé en escribir una reseña porque no podía dar mi opinión sin verlo funcioonar. Han pasado ya dos sismos desde que lo compré y la alarma comenzó a sonar al mismo tiempo que la de la calle (es decir, antes de que llegara el sismo). No se escucha el sonido "oficial" de alarma sísimica de México, es sólo una alarma muy escandalosa, pero es perfecta para alertarnos y despertarnos si es necesario. En una ocasión sonó sin que hubiera alarma sísmica, por lo que me puse a investigar y aprendí a configurarla correctamente. En los tutoriales que hay en YouTube dicen que la programes con "ALL" en tipo de alarma, pero eso es incorrecto. A veces envían señales que no son de sismo y por eso suena y en la pantalla dice "alarma desconocida", pero cuando fue por sismo la pantalla decía "alarma de terremoto". Configuré el radio para que no sonara con alarmas de tipo desconocido ni con alarmas de tipo tormenta o huracán porque no es lo que buscaba, y ahora suena sólo con la alarma de terremoto. Muy recomendada. Es muy importante que la coloques en un lugar en el que reciba el canal de transmisión lo más limpio posible (se escucha una voz dando datos varios) y que elijas el canal que más clara tenga esa señal y acomodes la antena donde menos ruido perciba. Yo la instalé en una pared pegada a la ventana de nuestra recámara y extendí la antena a lo largo de todo el cristal. Así me ha funcionado perfectamente. Además funciona con baterías y con corriente eléctrica, lo que la hace segura aún si no hay luz.

    Seems to work fine and do it's job. Haven't had any alerts yet but in test mode the alarm is plenty loud enough.

    Simple enough to set up if you are used to working with appliance menus,. Even simpler to operate. Single button operation turns weather forecast on or off.
