Excellent Product & A Great Value!

Reviewed by Michael Adams from Washington, DC on May 23, 2007

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

This unit was very easy to use. I found it to be perfect for my home business. I especially like the expandable headset capability. Also, even if the power goes out i can still make calls using the corded phone(although answering system won't work). Overall, i love this unit for it's ease of use and it's function. Minor improvements do need to be made to the speakerphone feature to make it more crisp and clear sound. I have to repeat myself twice due to the person on the other end not hearing me clearly or i end up using the handset due to me not hearing the other person clearly enough.

Cons:	LCD Not Bright Enough, Keypad Doesn't Light Up, Cord On Base Is Short, Speakerphone Not clear
Best Uses:	Office, Smaller Spaces, Home, Convenience Of A Cordless
Pros:	Strong Signal, Good Sound, Big Range, Choice of Ring Tones, Nice Features, Durable, Easy operation, Very Practical, Comfortable Headset

I would buy this product again

Reviewed by Happy Mom from Fontana, CA on Apr 23, 2007

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I am very satisfied with this phone. I shopped around and for the features, I think I got it at a great price. Also I really like the choice of ringtones instead of the same old home phone rings that everyone has. The only things that irk me is that if someone hangs up instead of leaving a message, the recorder will record those loud beeps and annoying recording (if you would like to leave a message,etc.) then hang up. Also if you have privacy manager the phone will not send to message system if you don't pick up. On the handset you can hear a echo of your voice, but it's not to bad. Other then that I really like the phone and you can't beat the price. It's worth putting up with a few minor annoyances.

Cons:	Echo on handset
Pros:	Multiple handset capable, Nice Features, Attractive design, Choice of Ring Tones, Excellent price, Message recording great
Best Uses:	Smaller Spaces, Home

Met expectations. In my volunteer work, I need a dependable answering machine that picks up messages clearly and gives callers time to complete their messages. [...]
