Summary: Noisy
Review: This phone performed well for about the first 4 months. Then I started getting a lot of noise in the remote handset. I have tried turning off all my appliances and computer, and can't make the noise go away. It is somewhat intermittent, however. Maybe a neighbor has another 2.4 GHz device that is causing interference?

Summary: Personally I'd say don't buy!
Review: I have had this phone for two months and have experienced too problems with it.
It does not hold a charge.
I get the "OUT OF SERVICE" message too often.
Horrible echo
Static noise
Redial only holds one number

I will seriously advice anyone to reconsider this purchase.

Summary: Worst phone I've ever purchase
Review: I don't know what the problem is with this phone, but 30 days after I purchased it from Best Buy (ironically, they only give you a 30 day guarantee) the phone would not hold a charge. I called AT&T customer service, and basically had to [pester] them to get them to send me replacement batteries for my practically brand new phone. I replaced the batteries, and within two weeks, the batteries would no longer hold a charge. I've had many cordless phones in the past, and have never had this experience with batteries not holding a charge. I have again tried different batteries, and the phone is just junk! I wish I could get my money back, but AT&T wants to keep sending me new batteries instead. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this phone.

Summary: Good phone, bad charger
Review: I found this phone easy to use, with good sound quality. The display is easy to read, the range is good, and it looks and feels of high quality.

So why only 2 stars? The charger in one of the base units (the one connected to the phone line) overcharged the rechargeable battery in the handset. The resulting heat damaged the circuit board inside the handset and it stopped working. Now my dual handset phone is a single handset phone unless I buy another one. Of course, I realized all of this just after the one year warranty was up.

Summary: Not as bad as people are claiming...
Review: I wanted to replace a Uniden EXS2060, which I loved, but because it is a 900 Mhz phone it interfered with my baby monitor. I found this phone pair at BJs Warehouse. After taking it home and charging, I really like the phones. One is upstairs and one is in the basement. They work great, the intercom is great and finally no more static with the baby monitor. MCI handles my answering machine so there's no messup with another device which some people were complaining about. I am sure the quality isn't 'amazing', but if this phone lasts me a year, I'll be happy.

Summary: A waste of money!!!
Review: I bought this set plus a base with answering machine. What a waste!!! I have returned it. Normally I use it only 15 feet from the base but would loose reception. Lots of noises and my voice sounded hollow. Like I was in a cave. People were constantly complaining about the phone when I was using it. Finally I packed it up and sent it back. I've gone back to my old Panasonic. My father bought the same phone and also returned his for the same reasons. A total waste of money. Buy something else.

Summary: Worthless
Review: I bought this phone, charged it for a day, and then the handsets started making a high-pitched whining noise. Needless to say, I returned it to the retailer. Don't bother with this poor-quality phone.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Horrible Clarity!
Review: We bought this phone, charged it for a full day and picked up the receiver to hear nothing but static! It has *HORRIBLE* clarity. I could barely even hear the dial tone over the static. We returned it and bought the Uniden cordless with dual handsets for the same price. We had originally purchased the phone based on AT&T having a good reputation as well as the great value (dual handsets for $...) but it turned out to be a bust!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Complete Junk!
Review: If you enjoy flushing your hard earned money down the toilet, this is the phone for you. Even if the price was $1 it would still be too expensive. Here are the problems:

Sound is TERRIBLE. Not just bad, but absolutely TERRIBLE.
Redial does not work.
Occasionally, the person on the other end can not hear you.
After about a month, the battery will only last about 7 minutes.

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Exactly what I wanted
Review: This product is exactly what I wanted. Simple, 2.4 GHz, caller ID, no answering machine, dual handset. I have owned this phone for 6 months and love it. We have few phone jacks in our house so this phone solved the problem. Also, it is the only phone I have found without an answering machine.
