Pros Reduced background noise. Handset styling.
Cons Base unit is in 2 pieces. No 1 touch speed dial buttons.
Recommended it? Yes

Pros Decent range, an impressive array of features, ease of use and oh yeh, cool styling!
Cons Vtech had an almost perfect phone, but ruined it with a lousy battery.
Recommended it? Yes

Pros It looks good and worked well for a short period.
Cons Extremely short life span for the phone and sketchy customer service
Recommended it? No

I bought this product and paid substantially more than other phones because I thought it looked great. It worked well for 2 1/2 years and then just started to act up by dropping calls saying it was looking for base when sometimes I was sitting next to base. After calling customer service on 3...
