Rating: Summary: the best headset I've tried Review: and I've bought and returned three because I had to shout to make myself heard clearly. Using this headset, no-one can tell I'm using one.
Rating: Summary: I've been through 2 of these already... Review: As some of the other reviews stated, this headset is flimsy & breaks easily. I've had 2 & won't buy this type again. You just really have to buy it realizing that's it's more or less "disposable." It isn't sturdy at all...I always end up having to use a rubber band to hold the thing together after a small piece breaks off the area where the headset is adjustable. Then, of course, the crackling starts...it's the cord that goes bad; if I move it slightly, then no one can hear me anymore. Grrrrrr!!! I've had it with these cheap headsets & am looking to buy a Plantronics next time & see how well those work. I would definitely NOT recommend this headset if you want one that's going to last a long time.

Rating: Summary: Do not get this headset Review: I am a professional online therapist and I do phone consultations all day. I have to have two things, a good phone and a good pair of headsets. I have been through so many it would make your head spin! I recommend AT&T's headset, which I found at my local Target store. This pair had very poor sound quality... and I heard a slight echo of my own voice when speaking of them. Not something I would reccomend. Good luck!
Rating: Summary: Don't make my mistake Review: I decided I wanted a headset so that I could talk on the phone while doing work or cooking around my house. I looked at both this Uniden headset and the AT&T one that is also sold on Amazon. Even though I read the reviews on here that said this headset can easily break I went ahead and bought one for cheap off the Amazon.com Outlet. I used it for a few months and was pretty happy with it. It was comfortable on my head, easy to adjust, sounded good, and I never got any complaints from people I was talking to.Then it broke. So now I'm about to shell out some more money for the AT&T headset and I figured I'd share my new found wisdom with everyone else.

Rating: Summary: worked for 30 days - microphone broke Review: I had one that worked for a year that came with the original phone. Then, I just ordered this one from Amazon and it worked for 30 days. Like other reviews you see here, people started not being able to hear me, but I could hear them. So the microphone broke. But, I called Uniden tech support and they recommended I replace the battery on the phone for $37. So, I just ordered a new phone and tested the headset -- sure enough it wasn't the phone -- it was the headset. A costly mistake. I would not buy this headset again. Also, Amazon has a 30 day return policy, so if it breaks, make sure you return it within that 30 days or you are stuck with it.
Rating: Summary: What a piece of junk! Review: I have already gone through two of these (I didn't pay for the replacement, obviously) and already need a third. They break almost instantly. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! I would give it zero stars if I could.
Rating: Summary: Unreliable and flimsy Review: I have had 3 of these headsets. The flimsy headband of the first one snapped when I accidentally pulled the cord (not very hard, either). I glued it together, and in total it worked for about 6 months. A crackling noise developed, and then the microphone stopped working. So I bought another one via Amazon auctions,... This new one worked for only 2 weeks, then the cracklng started, and then the microphone stopped working. I wrote to Amazon, and they speedily replaced it for free. This third headset worked for about 6 months, then guess what? Yes, crackling followed by no sound from the mike. I have had it! Don't buy this headset. I will note that the sound quality was good compared to Plantronics.
Rating: Summary: Lucent Tech Headset Review: I have seen the headphone that is described here, what a bulky, flimsy, poorly adjustable thing. The one that I received with my Lucent Tech 900 Mhz Analog Model 9107 works great on the Uniden 900 Mhz DSS Model 9960 that I have. It is an interesting design, a loop that clips the earpiece over the top of your ear, not around your head, with an adjustable microphone angle. Hard to describe, but very, comfortable. Do not know if they are sold separately, but highly recommended.
