Here is a question of reliability. Has anyone own the radio for 2 years with trouble-free operation?

Why? It's priced as a disposable radio. If you are wanting a quality device that will last you years and years maybe consider something else. This is a good intro radio until you decide this hobby is worth sinking some cash until.

Send it back, and get a different replacement radio. I'm using a different radio since then, . Will not own another one at this point. My first one lasted 7-8 years of daily use. The 2nd was a piece of junk in comparison, lasting not even a year w/ ocaisional usage. I see the quality has gotten worse.

I have had this radio for about 2 years without any problems except the battery level indicator has never worked. I leave the radio in the charging station when not in use. I have had the radio out of the charging station up to 30 minutes without the battery going dead after having the radio two years. I have a set of backup AA Alkaline next to the radio in case the rechargeable goes dead. I did not compare this radio to the Oregon Scientific WR602.

I have not had problems with wifi. Not the strongest radio but not terrible either. I have more than 10 of these and hadn't seen an issue.

I had a Fre for almost a year and a half and did not have any issues. I have had the NUUD now for a couple of weeks, and still no issues.

I have been using my unit for 1 1/2 years with no problems. I am happy that I purchased it. As with all electronics, it is possible to receive a bad unit.

No not at all. It is tight, just checked it. We use the radio all the time and have not had any problems with it.

Yes, I have had no problems with it. It's a great unit and there is no maintenance involved.

This is news to me. I bought mine a year ago. Still have no issues. I use the radio and the CD player most of the time.

I had a similar problem a few years ago. I went to their website and found a firmware update that I then applied to the radio and it has worked ever since. It took some configuring and a few on/off power cycles, but it is running as I write years after the problem. hope that works for you.

We have had ours around one year and are experiences issues with it, again. I thought it was the operator, thanks for the enlightenment.

I have owned mine for about 1.5 years. No issues. I used it last year as a maintainer when I stored my car and kept it plugged up for 5 months straight. No issues.
