Great for first time drivers
We gave this item as a gift to our niece who is a new driver and in her first year at college away from home. She is very stylist and immediately commented on the nice design. She mentioned that she would even take it along on our beach vacations.

exactly what I needed
Our area just lost power for 3 days due to storms and the handcrank radio was a lifesaver. Kept up to date on the storm and how long it would last. Better yet, kept my cell phone charged so I could make and receive calls. Made a horrible experience a lot more tolerable.

Basic radio
Not really impressed with the radio. Charging with handle or solar is slow-actually can't tell if it has charged even though cranking for a long time or being in the bright sun for days.
