I bought a set of six to communicate with co-workers in a sheet metal fabrication facility and they have gone above and beyond. We use them with the "Retevis Covert Acoustic Tube In-ear Air Acoustic Earpiece Headset," also available on Amazon, and I couldn't be more pleased.
You will DEFINITELY want to invest in a programming cable. I bought the "Baofeng USB Programming Cable" (which can be found at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008RZJHJU) and downloaded the software to program my radios for free. All the information and resources you could possibly need for programming these radios is at [...]
As for the radios themselves, they've performed flawlessly. While they aren't the most solidly constructed radios on the market, they are quite well put together for the price. The range is quite impressive considering the power output. I have also gotten two full days of use out of a single battery charge.
My only complaint with these radios concerns the earpiece/mic which is included with each radio. To put it bluntly, they suck. The earpiece is awkward and uncomfortable, and the sound quality and positioning of the microphone is bad.
What's not to like? These walkies are unbelievably inexpensive and function very well. Just know that you're not buying a $300 Motorola and you will be pleasantly surprised. The battery life is quite good considering the price, they charge properly and have audible channel switching. The included earpieces provide good sound fidelity (though we switched out to acoustic tube earwigs w/mics since they look cool for my kids - very Secret Service). All in all, I can't imagine a better walkie talkie available for the money spent. My children know they can only use these when they have belts on since the clip will keep the walkie from hitting the ground, not the case when clipped to a waistband.
None of these have hit the ground yet, nor have we had them long enough to know whether the earpiece cables will break easily. But so far so good.

Unos dejaron de cargar, marcaba como si ya estuvieran cargados y al quitarlos del cargador se apagaban, otros dejaron de servir en el botón para comunicarse, pero por el uso que se les daba que era diario, diría que funcionaron muy bien.
