I bought 2 of these radios to be used as a walkie talkies while on shoots in the great outdoors.

I used CHIRP software to program the channels, I set all the FRS, GMRS and Marine frequencies. Once one radio was set, I was able to clone the setting to the second one. Worked well under windows xp in Parallels, could not get it to work under OSX 10.7 natively. At the end all was working well.

Use in the field - this is were the problems begun. One clip broke (pin came out). Second radio got dunked into the stream and after drying out the microphone no longer works.

While the radios were functional, I made several test calls using 1W power and radio sounded bright and clear within a mile of distance.

My conclusion: I guess for under $40 I should not be complaining, but yet I feel like I should have used the money to have gotten something more sturdy and weatherproof. If I was getting another radio, it would be Yetsu/Icom/Kenwood waterproof variety. Yeah, saving money is nice, but not on things I need to rely on. So depending on your needs this transceiver might or might not work for you.

Update: July 7th, 2013

I tested my "wetted" radio, and the microphone works again - I guess it has dried out. The clip is busted on another one though. I am upping the rating to 4 stars, as it is one tough radio, just keep it from getting wet (as manufacturer intended).

Super cheap case. It was in pieces after about 2 months of regular use. I would have given it a lower rating, but the cost makes it reasonable. I still would rather invest a little more for it to last a little longer. The size of it is great though.

Super Cheap! The cord is clearly *very* cheaply made. The wire is very thin and the whole thing doesn't seem very sturdy. It DOES work though, but I expect it not to last long. But hey  you get what you paid for! I do love the color though (I got the light green).

It is decent for the price, but i would not buy it again. If youwant something that is solid and will last spend a little extra and get a higher end set.

You get what you pay for! Not the best toaster ever, but it gets the job done :)

This works, but it is cheaply made. For the price, that's fine with me, but eventually I'll buy a better one probably. The plastic is thin and feels like it would crack if dropped very hard. The magnets shift around inside of it sometimes too, but I haven't had an issue with pins losing the magnetism, so it works as intended.

You get what you pay for. Had to secure it down with packing tape and it started ripping within 2 weeks of use. Bummer.

Inexpensive set, you get what you pay for. I needed this for a class and wasn't sure how much I would really use it in the future so it served its purpose. I washed everything prior to using and the knife blade pulled out of the hilt when I dried it with a towel. The scoops are not sharp so it can take a bit of force to carve through melon skin. I was hesitant to use too much pressure because the metal felt flimsy. Not all of the metal shapes had been spot welded through so I will have to redo that, others were really bent and had to be reformed. The case its cheap, as others have said.  Several bands to hold the tools in place broke when I took them out to be washed. I put everything in zip lock bags, removed the center divider, and put the tools in the case that way. If you are looking for a professional set you know you will use every day, pass on this one.

You get what you pay for. This item looks great on the pictures shown but is made of a really cheap material. I ordered 4 and 2 came broken.

Made out of pretty cheap material, but for the price, it is what it is. I was just looking for a very cheap headband to keep my hair out of my eyes while running, and this accomplishes that task.

You get what you pay for. Cute, it did not cause my ears to hurt, but very cheaply made.

I like the color of this case. I fits my phone well even with a Tempered glass screen protector. I has a nice smooth feel to it. However I  think that this is made for cheap material. Within a few days there were multiple scratches from setting my phone on my desk , this happens I know but kind of disappointing when it happens a few says after you get a new case. It has been about a month and there are several small cracks on the face edge of  the case. Maybe this is due to the fact that I take the bottom off every night to dock it but that is kind of the point of this type of case. I will not be buying this again.

Good case for the money. I would definitely spend more on a better quality case if it was something I use every day. Works well for the occasional times I do use it.

Good for the price, but be warned the you get what you pay for. Had these for four years and for the last few months I began running into issues with it. I assume it's ran its course but before that it worked very well.

you get what you pay for.....I paid $3 for this case.  But I think I overpaid it be $2 bucks.  It feels really really cheap.

my boyfriend convinced me to buy this Foscam because it was more affordable than the Nest system I wanted as a nanny cam for our puppy because he takes naps upstairs in his crate and we can't hear him. unfortunately, you get what you pay for and this unit is a cheapie! the sound doesn't come on about 75% of the time. sometimes, if i turn the sound off/on several times it will eventually kick in, but most of the time it just doesn't come on no matter how much i play with it. so the camera works, but its focused on his crate in the darkened room and i can't tell if my puppy is in there crying, so for me, it's useless. buy higher quality, people!
