Rating: Summary: Disappointed... Review: I am very diappointed in this phone because we've had nothing but problems with it. We've already sent it back once because it wouldn't turn on. We got the optional dual battery and it didn't fit in the base ( I think they sent the wrong battery) so we can't use that. The new phone they sent us is now cutting out on us and is also not turning on and also echoes a lot. The good things about this phone are the range and it has a lot of features but what good are features when the stupid thing won't turn on! We purchased ours from cordlessguys and they've been horrible to deal with.(We're still waiting for the correct spare battery, 6+ months.)
Rating: Summary: Very good basic phone Review: I bought this phone because I wanted a dependable low priced cordless for use around the house. Many of my friends in college had this phone and I always was impressed with it's performance. I haven't been disappointed with my phone yet either. The range is impressive and the clarity good. I haven't experienced any of the problems noted by others on this page. The headset is a nice feature too. If you are looking for a great little cordless phone with few bells and whistles I would wouldn't hesitate to recommend this VTech.

Rating: Summary: **Best Phone I've Ever Used** Review: I find this is the answer to my phone needs.The range is incredible! I accidently took the phone with me when I left the house and more than two blocks away I heard a beep. Looking down at the display, there was an "out of range" indication. The thing kept beeping (should be able to silence this but I could have taken the battery out) but upon my return, I picked up the phone in aprox. the same location and there was a very clear connection. Again, awesome range more than two blocks from my house. The display indicates Plenty of caller ID information as well as the handy address book (sorted only by alphabet, to get users to the top, you can use numbers like 01, 02, etc... Not too much of a nuisance to ME anyway) Very good audio quality, those I connect to hear me loudly and clearly. I have purposely tried to make it echo by turning up the volume and cupping my hand in front of the mic but to no avail, nope! This thing performs like a champ and I love it. I have a slight problem with the headset (AT&T 90800) The volume I get from the ear portion of the headset is less than desired, and the mic doesn't perform nearly as well as the mic in the handset of the phone itself. A caller told me I was much clearer when I unplugged it. I am thinking about trying the 40 dollar one but am hessitant. Overall, I think the phone is wonderful, I love the spare battery feature as it enables the base unit to opperate in a power failure, and provides a nice fresh one should the portable indicate a weak one. ... The only reason I haven't given this unit a five star rating is because of the headset volume, and that may, or may not actually be the phone's fault. (I am hoping it is because of the AT&T headset which is comfortable yet perhaps not effective) Hope this helps.

Rating: Summary: Clarity and Range for a Low Cost Review: I love this phone. I've never had any of the problems that the other reviewers complain about. After letting the phone charge overnight, it was ready to use the nexty day. It sounds great; it has never cut in and out of a conversation, and I've never heard it "echo". I love the lighted keypad and the caller ID is very useful. And best of all, it was low cost. I would recommend this phone to my best friend.
Rating: Summary: Great Phone - when it's working Review: I've had this phone for just about a year. When it works it's great. Good audio quality, very long range (2 city blocks or more), caller ID works perfectly. However, it frequently loses contact with the base unit. When it does the handset insists on beeping incessantly - no way to stop it unless I remove the battery. There seems to be no good way of forcing it to re-establish contact with the base unit. This is extremely irritating and I will be replacing this unit soon. And I will not purchase another V-Tech.
Rating: Summary: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR Review: I,m in the process of returning the phone.There are so many things wrong with this phone.One of the worst things is that i get this high pitched noise once in a while,then you get somewhat of an echo,then the ear section is uncomfortable.I,m going to try a sony now and i hope it works out. p.s.My 10 channel phone was 10 times better than this one
Rating: Summary: this is good but not great phone Review: this phone has some nice basic features but miss a couple of obvious ones that should have been added. first the phone's caller id does not match itself to your memory list. this means if you don't have alpha numeric caller id there is no way of knowing who is calling. second there is no prefered caller list. therefore there is unique ring for prefered callers, and one doesn't get to turn off the riger for starangers while letting prefered callers through. i don't find spread spectrum any clearer than normal 900mhz phones.
