Strengths: Compact, affordable, backlit LCD, easy to use menue options
Weaknesses: Extremely limited range, not water resistant, feels and looks like a toy, doesn't perform as advertised
Summary: I purchased this product because it was the best deal for what was advertised on the package. I returned this product for not coming close to matching what was advertised on its package. "Up to a 5 mile range" was what was promised, however, transmissions were unintelligible after 3/4 of a mile and stopped completely after only 1 mile. I could also hardly make sense out of what was being said to me over the radio during transmissions. This model performed worse than other types that I had tried that only had a 2-mile range. When I spend over $70 on a set of radios, I don't want my childs walkie talkie to produce sound that is more clear than mine. I had planned to keep them and just use them at the fair, mall, beach,etc... but crowds of people REALLY slaughtered the range on these puppies. In all fairness they weren't a total hunk of trash, but save your money and go for a better model or manufacturer all together.
