I have had this for over a year now. I bought this to stash away in the closet as part of an emergency kit. Overall it works ok. The reception is a little questionable. The look and feel are sturdy but kind of cheap. My big complaint is that the volume dial which turns the radio on and dials up the volume the farther you go... does not work on mine. If you turn it on the volume is full blast no matter how much you turn the dial. The dynamo works good, that and the price are what made buy this radio. But looking back on it now i am willing to spend some money for something i expect to depend on in a bad situation where power might be out and i want to know whats going on.
So all in all i can't really recommend this radio to anyone. I don't believe it will stand up to regular use. And i don't trust it for an emergency radio as it is defective.

This was a horrible experience. Bought this to prepare for Hurricane Irene and now I only have one day left to find a replacement because as soon as I opened the package I noticed the station dialer was broken and loose within the cavity. It appears very much as if it was shipped this way. I am very angry about this purchase because on top of this I have to pay for the return which is even more of an inconvenience and expense, regardless of any possibility of refund because judging from other remarks, this is not the first time this happened with the seller with other customers. Let it be another example to others to make sure they look at the other reviews before buying anything.

I live in Florida and through the storms and blackouts I have come to use this radio and depend on it. I use to enjoy listening to television on this, but with the new broadcasts television shows do not come in anymore / Overall good for just a radio. cranking lasts a while.

We were disappointed in the radio, as we bought it as a gift for my mother, who wanted it solely to be able to listen to television stations while she was in her study without a TV. The TV band never worked at all, and we wound up returning it.

El radio es de muy baja calidad, no es fácil de sintonizar las emisoras, no carga con la manivela del dinamo, lo que ocasiona que necesariamente tengas que usar pilas, es difícil sintonizar los canales de televisión que fue el motivo por el cual lo compre, por favor controles de calidad.
