These walkie talkies are much better than I was expecting. From the photos posted, they are cheap looking. I was pleasantly surprised to find that that is not the case at all. They are very sturdy and well made. They have a long range with clear sound. My husband took my daughter for a walk, and we were able to communicate the entire time. My daughter was very fond of the pink coloring and the built in light. The only reason I gave these walkie talkies four stars is because the battery compartment is almost too small. You have to forcefully shove the batteries in. Overall, however, we are very pleased with these toys, and would completely recommend them. They will be coming with us on our upcoming camping trip!
