Cons You have to customize each phone individually, a little pricey
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this base unit and a couple extra handsets for my home after losing faith in the 2.4 panasonic phones that kept dying on me.

On first impression, the phone's looked very sleek and very ergonomic. Just to make sure I didn't screw up again, I followed the instructions to the "T"... Read full review »

Worth maybe $20...not $200

Pros Lots of bells and whistles. Can listen to messages from handset.
Cons Broke Fast. Problem ridden.
Recommended it? No

Constantly had to cycle the power because the headset couldn't find the base. Lost a lot of calls: phone would ring, I'd pick up the handset, phone stops ringing as if I picked it up, but the handset can't talk to the base station. This happened frequently. Now, eight months later, it just stopped... Read full review »

Cons Static, illogical controls, static . . . did I mention static?
Recommended it? No

Why, oh why?
I know what you're thinking, "Scott, you're on epinions all the time. Why, oh why did you buy this phone despite the eleven previous reviewer's glowing ratings?" Well, we all make mistakes sometimes. Mine was to think that at the price this pair of phones with an answering machine... Read full review »

Worst piece of trash

byn99y99r99 Dec 1, 2006
9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros None
Cons I don't know where to start
Recommended it? No

Not only is there more static than ever, you cannot turn the volume loud enough to hear over the static. Whenever telemarketers call and refuse to leave a message, it causes the phone to stay busy all day long, completely eliminating the point of an answering machine in the first place. I hate this...
