The radio looks nice and seems to be made of good quality materials. Instructions are not that easy to follow and not in enough detail. I would prefer a button that can be pushed to activate the alarm. for someone that has to get up each morning at the same time, you could set it and forget it. But for a retired person that only wants to get up early once a week or so, after the alarm goes off, and you don't want it to go off the next morning, you must go through the process of getting to the alarm through the menu system in order to turn it from ON to Off. Then when you want it on again, you have to go through the process again. For the weekly test, it doesn't really explain how to turn the siren off once it starts. After a lot of searching I found out the alarm can be put on mute, so you don't have to hear it. But then you don't know if it is working. I feel it is a little bit high priced. If it does its job when it is supposed to, then I will be satisfied with it. Vollständige Rezension lesen

I have had one of these weather radios for over a year and it has worked very well. I bought a second one for my dad, to replace his old one that was not programmable. The S.A.M.E. functions are easy to program for the county(s) that you want to get alerts for, and lets you set the types of alerts you receive. For example I live over 300 miles from Chicago, but would still get missing child alerts from there at 3 or 4 AM! I have programmed these out, as I hate being awakened in the wee hours for something that I can do nothing about. I know people who have gotten rid of their weather radios because of these missing child alerts! These days a programmable weather radio with S.A.M.E. capabilities is a must, and this Midland radio fills the bill nicely!

I love this weather alert radio. It keeps the family feeling safer knowing that we will always be aware of any dangers (weather or otherwise) the moment the alert is issued. With the S.A.M.E. feature it allows you to choose exactly which counties in you area you want to be alerted about and you can choose which alerts you receive and how. For example if you don't want the siren going off in the middle of the night over an Amber Alert then you can change it to blinking lights only or completely turn off Amber Alerts all together. I have had mine for about a month now and luckily there has only been one weather alert issued in that time but the radio worked flawlessly and the siren was loud enough that no matter what room we were in it was heard. I have mine turned up pretty loud on purpose but you can adjust the volume for each alert however you like it. I have seen this radio on the market for many many years and now I see why. It's a very high quality device packed with features and I highly recommend it for everyone.Vollständige Rezension lesen

Bought this to replace a WR-100 that quit playing the NOAA weather radio broadcast and was emitting a tone instead. Based on some searches online it seems that is not uncommon with these models of Midland units. Set up and operation are relatively straight forward if you follow the instructions (available from Midland online). I'm not sure exactly, but I think the previous one (purchased new) lasted about 5 years. Don't know how old this used one is, but I hope it is better made and lasts longer. Time will tell...

The WR-120 is the best weather radio imo because it has the S.A.M.E area codes so you only get alerts for your county also when it goes off it plays a 10 second alarm then goes to the live voice broadcast then unlike the other weather radios it shuts up immediately at the end of the alert broadcast like live T.V/ Radio instead of staying on in radio mode and then displays the type of alert on the screen .
