This review is from: Motorola TalkAbout FV200R 5-Mile 22-Channel FRS/GMRS Two-Way Radios (Pair) (Electronics)
First, if you buy these make you you get the ones with rechargeable batteries, you will save the price difference in two battery sets.

We bought these to communicate while visiting Disneyland. While the range is not amazing (especially in the first channels which do not require FCC permit), reception was clear from one side to the other of the park.

Construction is solid. I dropped mine pretty hard and was amazed the radio did not even get a scratch. Battery lasted two whole days of heav use. My last more, but since they are so easy to charge I did not get to test that.

Good buy, I do recommend them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for in the neighborhood and around the house., January 5, 2007

This is the second time I've purchased this particular product. Unfortunately, last summer one fell in the pool and that was the end of that. We live in a small neighborhood on a dead end street with lots of kids. When I send my kids down to play they attach this to their pants with the belt clip or put it in a coat pocket. When it's time to come home or I want to check up on them, I just give them a call on the radio. I also use it when my kids are sick. Their bedrooms are upstairs and if I'm downstairs doing laundry or working on the computer, they can just call me on the radio rather than yelling which isn't something they like to do when they are sick! Great for what we use it for.
