fits in palm of hand, easy to find a channel to speak on,
good deal for cost
great for the price! [Posted on 2008-04-18]
I bought these for my 7 year old nephew for his birthday in September and he loves them. He and his younger brother use them all over the neighborhood when they're playing and when they walk the dog. When my sister has to pick up the littlest one from daycare, she can leave the older one waiting and take one of the walkie-talkies with her while she runs in for five minutes to check in on him so he doesn't get nervous. She liked these so much that she bought two more sets so they could use them for a birthday party scavenger hunt! Can't beat the price and the quality is WAY better than the cheap character ones for sale at kids' toy stores. She's already thrown away two sets of Hulk walkie talkies because they weren't sturdy enough to withstand 7 year-old play. These are still going strong nearly 8 months later and they use them nearly every day.
Poor Clarity [Posted on 2008-04-27]
We bought these Motorola FV200s to replace our older model Walkie-Talkies (Motorola T6220). Unfortunately, the clarity of the reception on the FV200s is horrible compared to our older model. We bought the FV200s because they take regular batteries (more convenient than rechargeable batteries when your batteries start going dead while out & about) and because of the style and the price. Unfortunately, the clarity is so poor that we constantly have to ask each other to repeat each others' transmissions. I do not recommend this model.
speaker broken [Posted on 2008-07-03]
I don't expect much from $20 walkie-talkies, but one of the units had a broken speaker right out of the package! And the process for replacing/repairing is worthless since it's sold through an Amazon affiliate, not Amazon itself.
Purchased for a cruise vacation [Posted on 2008-08-04]
We purchased these to use on a cruise ship during vacation. The range was not sufficient to be useful. If you are purchasing for this purpose suggest you look at something with more transmitting power.
