    « Junk in Clamshell Packaging »
    This radio is junk. The tiny rechargable battery can only power the radio for about one minute. The radio tuning knob is very sensitive which makes it hard to tune to any frequency. But, the radio reception is not sensitive -- you have be next to the transmitter to get a signal. The selector slide switches for power source, AM/FM/Weather, and Weather Channel are cheap, imprecise, and will fail quickly. This radio is trash. DO NOT BUY!

    « Crank Power Does NOT Work »
    As far as I'm concerned, the only reason to purchase a device of this type is the crank power feature. I can purchase AA battery powered flashlight that is 10x smaller and lighter than this thing that puts out better light. I can purchase a AA battery powered radio that is smaller, lighter, and has better reception than this thing.

    So, the crank feature is all I really care about. Does it work? Heck NO. The biggest defect in this device is the "rechargeable battery" and its connection. It broke pretty much right out of the package. Second time I tried plugging the rechargeable battery in, the entire connection pushed into the device and broke. I'm basically left with two loose wires for a battery connection. Extremely flimsy wiring.

    The rechargeable battery is a joke. Its one of those tiny little round batteries normally used in watches or key fob. Capable of powering a single LED. Definitely not capable of powering a radio for longer than 30 seconds.

    « Mediocre quality »
    While the radio bands and alert worked fine, the LED flashlight and reading lamp did not work as expected. I was finally able to turn on the reading lamp if I raised the arm just the right way, but the flashlight never worked.

    I returned this item for a refund.

    « Seems to be good, but weatherband doesn't work for me »
    When I first got this radio, I cranked it right away and tried to get it to work with no luck, only then did I realize that you have to put the battery in in order for it to store the cranked power--duh :). Anyway, I was able to get radio stations that are normally difficult to get, but I wasn't able to get the emergency weather station. Everything else seems to work as promised, but I haven't tried the cell phone charger yet.

    « LGTF38 Radio/Light »
    The first unit I received was defective- Appeared to have been dropped/treated roughly. The replacement unit, from Amazon in about 2 days, was fine.

    The radio itself is like all "one size fits all" devices- does everything OK, but nothing is great. It does have a "Way cool" reading light built into the carry handle. The radio functions as expected, but the flashlight function is of little use- not particularly bright, and cumbersome to use.

    All in all, it's OK, and not too pricey. If you are buying a similar unit, one without the flashlight is preferable.
