4 out of 5 stars new favorite kids b'day present   August 10, 2009

It's cute, it works and it's pretty sturdy. Probably wouldn't do for a macho little boy. Gave it to my granddaughter for her 6th b'day, but her 3 year old brother likes it just fine. It's far more reasonably priced than many others.


5 out of 5 stars Love these   July 13, 2009

We love these walkie talkies. We had fisher price walkie talkies first and they were awful. Nothing but static & truckers, plus we talked over each other.

The hello kitty walkie talkies are crystal clear, have many channels, an easy to use volume control, and an audible tone when the talk button is released (so the other person knows you are finished).

They also have a musical call button to alert the other person you are wanting to talk.

These work all over our 2600 sq ft house, into the garage and the basement with no trouble at all. My 4 year old daughter loves them and we do too!



2 out of 5 stars Batteries don't last very long - oops maybe I was wrong!   February 25, 2009

When I wrote this critical review I was using some old NiCad batteries that may have lost a lot of capacity to recharge. When I switched to using regular non-rechargable batteries the performance was satisfactory. Sorry for an unfair review. I'm not that experienced in dealing with rechargable batteries, especially when it comes to them losing capacity to recharge.

When the batteries get low my unit starts making a lot of static noises, and the batteries seem to run low within an hour or so of the units being on. I wanted to keep the unit on so workers outside the house could easily contact me if they needed to. But after an hour or so I guess the batteries get too low and the unit starts making more and more static, to the point where I have to turn it off or put in fresh batteries. The units work nicely on fresh batteries but how long will the batteries last if the units are left on even though there are hardly any transmissions? I'm not sure but I'm getting tired of messing around with it. So my only complaint is that I'm not having much luck with battery life so far. The units are nice but it seems to me like they are probably power hungry.



5 out of 5 stars It actually works   February 18, 2009

Most of the kids' walkie talkies my kids have had don't work, or it's too much static, or it breaks after a few uses. We have had this for 4 months now, and even with my 3 year old stepping on it, throwing it into her toybox, etc., it still works like a charm. The sound is clear and it's easy to use for even my youngest. We are able to hear each other from the 3rd floor to the basement. A surprising great product!

My daughter received her walkie talkies for Christmas. She takes one outside with her when playing in the neighbor hood. It is a great way for me to check up with her. It has great reception! My daughter and I are enjoying this very much.
