I bought one of these for myself & liked it so much I bought three as Christmas gifts, and I plan to buy more this year as birthday gifts. It was especially useful when I was out of town during the holidays staying at homes where a radio wasn't handy at night. Not only did my little LL Bean radio provide some listening pleasure, it has that very handy flashlight. Plus, it's so small it fits easily in my purse, and even though I have an iPhone, I wouldn't part with my little radio.
This item was purchased for our son and family. He is very happy with the solar radio light/cell phone charger and feels that it will not only be good to use in an emergency, but will be a great item to use around their pool and at the beach It is a good portable item and easy to store.
Haven't had need for it yet, my husband paid more attention this little radio combo than he did his new surround system. It will come in handy the next power outage.
