Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We've had this for a few years but I've never felt the need to write a review. We had a tornado go by our house a couple nights ago in TX. Friends were all upset that their phones didn't alert them to the Tornado Watch or Warning. Our phones didn't go off either, but luckily we have this radio which woke us up AND we could hear the sirens outside. If you can't hear the sirens inside your house, you NEED one of these weather radios. The sirens are for people who are OUTSIDE. They aren't meant to be the warning device indoors. This is the one we have and it's plenty loud and easy for someone tech-dumb to program. I leave all tech stuff to my husband but one time he was out of town and I had to reprogram it. The instructions come with it and are online so you can do it even if you lose the original.
