Midland GXT710VP3 22-Channel 26-Mile GMRS 2-Way Radio (Pair)

It is my opinion that this product is much over-hyped. In order for this product to work for anything over one mile, one should expect SUPER optimum conditions; i.e. only flat land with no obstructions (trees, buildings, etc.). We've not been any place where we could even try something approaching a 26-mile range.

Shipping costs, speed of delivery, care in packaging, etc. were all excellent.

this set of walkie talkies are very good, much better than the ones i had.i haven't tested them for a real long range but they work fine at 8 miles although i was elevated and had a straight shot to the one i was talking to.they also work fine anywhere in the small town i live in anywhere i've tried them and in the surrounding area.

I bought these recently to use at the beach. One thing I did not pay attention to when ordering was that these are not waterproof/resistant. If I were to do it again, I would look for a water resistant set.

They work well, but contact must be made without trees or hills in the way to cover any distance.

I've had this product for a few weeks and have used it during SAR training in the woods. Has worked as advertised and didn't take long to figure out all the menu options. No complaints. I like the fact that it comes with a charger. I won't give it 5 stars since I have only had it a few weeks.

Purchased to use on cruise ship in April. We had 10 kids and parents using the same model. We had no problems reaching from deck 2 up to 11. We did need to all be on the same privacy code. Before we changed to a specific privacy code we could hear tons of other people. We also found that using the vibrate instead of the tone alert was not only better to reach the kids who were sometimes in a loud environment but also limited the impact we had on other cruisers.
During an excursion in Mexico my husband was about 6 miles from me and I could still hear him great. Overall, great product.
