This Is The Weather Radio For Your Safety!

I love my Midland Weather Radio. I’ve had it for many years. If I ever have a question I just reach out to the his folks. I keep the manual under the radio so I always know where it is. I make sure that I hear the test alert every Wednesday at 11 am. This is my assurance that it is working !. I feel safer having radio in my home! When my niece went to college in OK, I bought 1 for her to have in her apartment.

10/10 Soo God

It saved my life one time! It was when there was a tri state tornado

Verified Purchase

Good If You Don’t Shake Too Muxh

It works. The only stupid thing is that if u hit it too or shake it too hard when the wire is disconnected, the radio will cease to function because the batteries are dislodge. then u will be without lifesaving information and die in a tornado

Peace Of Mind

I chose this model over the more expensive WR400 with clock radio because you can turn the WR120 off or adjust the volume for siren and radio. This stays plugged in and silent 24/7 and only alerts when there is an emergency so it gives you peace of mind. You can also just use it to listen to weather radio separate from the alarms. Menu driven configuration makes initial setup easy. You don't need to use SAME codes, just enter your county, though I think it would be best to use Zip codes than to scroll through states and counties. The large screen and visual alert Warning/Watch/Advisory LEDs are helpful. If you disconnect from AC & battery power to change batteries, it won't save your settings. You'll have to go through and reconfigure it again. It doesn't just alert on severe weather. It will also alert on other events like chemical spills, terrorist attacks, contaminated water, power outages, bad guy on the loose, etc which eliminates the need for a scanner to listen for fire & police emergencies. Editing events is difficult because they're not in alphabetical order. Despite being a radio, it won't synch time from radio-controlled clocks with auto DST. That seems like a feature it should have. It would be nice to have a small blinking LED like other weather radios so I know it's on when the screen isn't lit, though you can configure it so that the backlight is always on but it will stay on if switching to battery power and drain the batteries. Overall satisfied, but I'd pay more for more configuration options.

Reliable. & Loud Enough To Wake Me Up When Needed

I'm glad I bought this radio (about 2 years ago) and I'm buying another for a relative. Several things are great about this radio: * it's reliable. * the alarm is loud enough to wake me up even if the alert on my cell phone doesn't. Since lots of storms come through at night, I appreciate this! * the double AA batteries have kept the radio working when the power has gone out and when I've brought the radio into the basement when tornadoes have been spotted close by (twice). * plays the weather forecast at the push of a button. * programming is pretty straightforward, though it takes some time. People who aren't keen on electronics might want some help and some patience. No complaints.
