Customer Review: Scarey Beginning
Summary: 5 Stars
The five stars are actually for Amazon, the radios would get zero stars for the first set, and four for the second.
I purchased these as a Christmas gift for my husband (and me!) We live in a two-story house on a large rural property, and our cell phones don't work from downstairs or the spring from which we pump water. There are days when I have trouble with the stairs, or we need to communicate between the house and the spring box. The radios were to be the perfect solution. After charging them the required 24 hours we found we couldn't get them to work without an unacceptable amount of static. We tried everything, even calling the manufacturer, who said they were defective and to return them to the point of purchase.
The service from Amazon was INCREDIBLE!!!! Very easy return, even paid by them. And they sent the replacements within two days of my contacting them. Oh yeah, and the new radios work perfectly.
