Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Midland is easy to program with a large selection of weather alerts that can be customized. I could easily find a frequency with a NOAA broadcast that came in clearly. It was easy to set up. The FM radio reception is fine and it has dual alarm wake up. It also has a battery back up (requiring 4 AA batteries, not included). It has worked well, sending out alerts during some bad storms this summer. Definitely worth the investment especially with the tornadoes we've had this year.

Quality product. Excellent reception. Dependable. It’s there when you need it the most. Battery backup ensures 100% coverage even when the power goes out. I trust this product to save lives.

This Midland weather radio isn't cheap, but it is packed with features that I'm confident will keep my family safe under the threat of TN tornadoes and flash flooding. Super easy to set up and has the best national weather radio reception of any model I've tried.

This is an excellent weather radio that can also receive AM and FM stations. We owned the older wr120, which is sometimes a bear to program since the menus aren't intuitive and the manual is confusing. This is a much more modern design, it is relatively easy to use. I gave it a 4 based on the fact that it still has a confusing manual but it is much better than the older models. As someone who has owned several Midland products, confusing menus seems to be a feature of that company's radios.

With battery backup this will keep you aware of severe weather in your area at all times. It was easy to set up and works well. It has sounded off a couple of times while I was asleep and it will wake you up to alert you even if you are asleep.

Allows you to select your state and county for the location alerts. Also allows you to select which alerts you want on or off(don’t need hurricane alerts on in Tennessee). AN/FM radio is a nice touch as well.

The unit does not have an on/off switch. Disappointed that it does not hold the settings if it is unplugged or if you are changing the batteried.

Midland has manufactured a great weather station that gives warnings of weather disturbances. It is difficult to set up the county, state, etc. to get relevant information for your area, but once connected, the reports are timely, and very accurate. I highly recommend

Only had this emergency radio for two days when the first storm came through our area... ! The radio performed as advertised !!

Very happy with the Midland weather radio. Easy to program,nice features, alerts are clear and reception has been great. Programmed it to give me my county alerts only. This radio does what it is supposed to do. Very nice design also.

Did not have to use external antenna AM/FM radio works well. Small size fits anywhere.

We wanted a SAME weather radio that was loud for emergenciesbut also allowed us to select which counties woild give us alerts so we were not kept up all nihht after storms had passed. This was a good choice and smart the little white midland have to have user interaction to play the alert and to stop the radio. This one starts the message automatically, plays through the alerts and then stops on its own. So we dont have to get up everytime it goes off.

i live in the country where we don,t always have internet and this is a good backup. can also use as alarm clock.

Reliable product. Alerts to all weather emergencies

Great weather radio. I have no issues with reception

Amazing! The alert went off in the middle of the night and everyone heard it. Another time during daylight when everyone was in the living room, it alerted and we were able to hear the alert sound. Easy set up.

Good radio , easy setup, I wish the antenna picks up better signal, take a while to get it right

Midland makes decent weather radio. Has for years. Our last one was bought around 2008-2010 time frame and finally quit working over the winter 2019-2020. I can't complain. We were actually wanting to buy another of the white model for $40, but Best Buy was out of stock. Not wanting to go too far into a Mid-western Spring without a storm radio, we opted to buy this $70 model instead. Works just like our last one, but for $30 more. I think the extra $30 must be for the AM/FM, which are old one did not have. Unfortunately, I don't believe will ever use it. Anyway, I'm satisfied. I just wished Best Buy hadn't been out of stock of the white ones. Maybe this $70 one will last twice as long and then I'll be money ahead.

Since I live near the ocean the constant marine warnings were driving me INSANE. I LOVE LOVE LOVE that I can enable and disable whatever alerts I want!

I had the simpler Midland alert unit for about 11 years. This one has potential for 2 alarms as well as fm and am radio station reception. I now awaken to classical music instead of a squaking beeper. Setting for two relevant county alerts seemed more straightforward. Costs more but worth it for me.
