    Every home needs one

    This is to replace a dead 20 year ol Midland weather radio. Apparently they no longer make the model we had so it was time to upgrade. This one has a lot more buttons, a lot more features and a lot more things to program in. Im looking forward to having the security of a weather radio in the house again. This one has AM/FM, as well as weather broadcast, seeminly endless hazard alerts. Up to 23 county alerts. I think the siren could be louder but Im used to the other models. I dont know how some people could think this is too loud. To each his own. We will see how this goes.

  • Most critical review

    Not what I expected

    I have many Midland products but this one is a dud. Certainly not what I expected. AM reception is non-existent even with an additional antenna. It is very difficult to program. The FM works good and the sound is ok for a radio of this size. The storm alert is loud which is a good thing and that part works perfectly. Overall it is a so-so product.

  • Great size and function.

    Great size, easy to program for your area specific. Easy to use as radio or weather alert and forecast. Good sound for small speaker. Controls on top make it easy for all.

  • Does what it should for weather alerts

    Works very well on giving you the alerts you need. Programming is easy, if you follow the instructions. Sound is good for its size. One negative is the tuning for regular radio programming is not very selective. On AM especially it often picks up a second station and tuning will not eliminate that background noise.

  • A Great Weather Alert Radio !!!

    It works perfect once you set it up for your specific area. It's a great tool to keep my family safe during bad weather events. It's a very nice unit and I really like it. Be sure to install 4 Lithium AA batteries for backup power. Lithium batteries are much more expensive than Alkaline, but the Lithium batteries are Guaranteed to never leak in your device over time and cause damage !!

  • Great radio

    This radio has the greatest weather radio along with the am/fm portion that performs as great as well. With all the recent storms in my area it has never failed to alert me of their approach. This radio is simple to program and operate. For the money it is a great value.

  • for a used product it was in very good condition and works as it should

    For a used product it was in very good condition and works as it should. One complaint, former owner had left battries in too long and they had started to corrode battery compartment but it cleaned up easily.

  • Glad I chose Midland

    I'm very glad I bought the Midland brand. It is user friendly and works great. Last week, at night, we had severe thunderstorm warnings and a tornado warning nearby. The Midland worked great and it is solidly built, not cheaply made.

  • Great weather alert radio

    As far as a weather alert radio it works great The display is easy to see at the right angle As far as an AM /FM radio it has very little reception For the purpose of weather alerts it is a very good product and works just as it is supposed to

  • Works well, may one day save your life

    Decent little radio. Lucky, where I live, I've only heard the weekly test message, but it was nice and clear.
