    I had one of these for a good 15 to 20 years and it finally stopped working, so this is the replacement. It's a great weather alarm radio. It's easy to set up and is Extremely Loud... it def wakes you up if there is Any bad weather near. Weighs maybe 2 lbs. Bright letters & numbers that are easy to read. Appearance is nice simple & white. It is about as big as 2 palms put together.

    This is a great weather radio. We have tried other brands and Midland is the best. Easy to set up, straightforward instructions, good sound quality and easy functionality. We haven't had a weather alert in our area yet so we haven't experienced a real alert but the test alert function worked great. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a weather alert radio.

    Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2024
    First background! I have been a tech writer for over 40 years and am critical of manuals. The 1 and 2 stars ratings for this product are probably problems with the manual and not the product, because the user did not understand how to program the unit. It is really easy to program, but the manual is very confusing and incorrect. The first thing that appears when you plug in the radio is LANGUAGE, but the first thing listed on the manual is TIME, so you are already confused on how to set the LANGUAGE. Complaints about not being able to receive a station can be corrected by going to the SET CHANNEL area and scrolling the seven channels until a signal is received, but they don't mention why you should use that section of the manual until after you programmed the State and County, and that leaves the user confused. The sound quality is not good, but that is typical for this kind of radio. The voice is computer generated and clear, but strange sounding. Not the problem of the radio. The complaints about the siren being too loud is the typical volume for this type of device. We keep our radio in the bedroom and you need to be able to hear the alarm all though the house, so you need a loud alarm. Not a defect! To summarize, the radio is nice looking, easy to use and easy to program, it's the manual that is giving you problems. Read the manual carefully!

    I have had a Midland weather radio most of my adult life and the one I had finally decided it was time to retire. I purchased this model to replace it and it works like a charm. It is easier to reach the controls and read the warning screen than my old one was. I just hope it lasts as long as my old one did. Great quality and price.

    Radio was very easy to program. Programed it for just my county to avoid constant alarms from other area's. Best thing about this radio is if something comes up in the muddle of the night the alarm will sound and play the emergency message and then shuts off, without you having to get out of bed. Works as advertized.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Buen sistema de alertamiento y prevención.
    Reviewed in Mexico on September 19, 2022
    Compré este producto por que la alerta sísmica pública en la zona en la que vivo, se escucha a lo lejos, por lo que a veces no es fácil percibirla (CDMX, México). Cuando la instalé seguí las recomendaciones de los videos de YouTube para poder configurarlo, pero emitía alerta por mensajes desconocidos o falsas alarmas. Por lo que tuve que ingresar al menú de alertas y desactivar prácticamente todas y solo dejar la de emergencia desconocida (que es donde avisa la de terremoto). Hasta este momento no he tenido problemas con falsas alertas y funcionó perfecto en el simulacro del 19 de septiembre de 2022, inclusive sonó antes que los altavoces públicos cuando minutos después sucedió el sismo ese mismo día. Por lo que, con experiencia les puedo decir que es un producto confiable y relativamente fácil de configurar. Solo es prestar atención en desactivar casi todos los avisos y dejar el adecuado para terremoto.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 7, 2023
    i paid for this thinking since it has the S.A.M.E. feature it could be programmed to any country but no just within USA or Canada. Worked fine for a couple seconds with batteries in but had to find an adapter and keep it plugged into the wall; if I didn't have an adapter as it comes with the 2 pronged USA charger. The material feels fairly cheap particularly the charging cord and it feels could snap at any moment; the device itself 1. it reminds me of an early 00s CD player you carry around with you, which isn't bad but it doesn't last with the 3x double AA batteries (i tried a couple different ones, brand new) and so i can't really carry around with me and doesn't pick up any of the stations as I am on the other side of the atlantic so if I decided to go to USA to visit my friends or visit my family in Canada I can't even check for potential storms and so on, as even with the antenna doesn't pick up anything, just static and i can't even program with the feature to the region and place I am in 2.when you turn towards you you can't see anything on the display; it has 2 little collapsible legs so it's at an angle but if for example you tried mounting it to the wall you can't see anything. Can't pick up any stations or program it to where I am unfortunately. Tried to see if i could and reading the instructions and watching videos of the same product so I could have a reason to keep it but unfortunately will have to return it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Funciona perfecto en México

    Me tardé en escribir una reseña porque no podía dar mi opinión sin verlo funcioonar. Han pasado ya dos sismos desde que lo compré y la alarma comenzó a sonar al mismo tiempo que la de la calle (es decir, antes de que llegara el sismo). No se escucha el sonido "oficial" de alarma sísimica de México, es sólo una alarma muy escandalosa, pero es perfecta para alertarnos y despertarnos si es necesario. En una ocasión sonó sin que hubiera alarma sísmica, por lo que me puse a investigar y aprendí a configurarla correctamente. En los tutoriales que hay en YouTube dicen que la programes con "ALL" en tipo de alarma, pero eso es incorrecto. A veces envían señales que no son de sismo y por eso suena y en la pantalla dice "alarma desconocida", pero cuando fue por sismo la pantalla decía "alarma de terremoto". Configuré el radio para que no sonara con alarmas de tipo desconocido ni con alarmas de tipo tormenta o huracán porque no es lo que buscaba, y ahora suena sólo con la alarma de terremoto. Muy recomendada. Es muy importante que la coloques en un lugar en el que reciba el canal de transmisión lo más limpio posible (se escucha una voz dando datos varios) y que elijas el canal que más clara tenga esa señal y acomodes la antena donde menos ruido perciba. Yo la instalé en una pared pegada a la ventana de nuestra recámara y extendí la antena a lo largo de todo el cristal. Así me ha funcionado perfectamente. Además funciona con baterías y con corriente eléctrica, lo que la hace segura aún si no hay luz.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Simple enough to set up, simpler to operate.

    Seems to work fine and do it's job. Haven't had any alerts yet but in test mode the alarm is plenty loud enough.

    Simple enough to set up if you are used to working with appliance menus,. Even simpler to operate. Single button operation turns weather forecast on or off.
