Casio TC2775 2.4 GHz Pearl White Cordless Phone with Digital Answering System

Rating:
Summary: Big disappointment
Review: I bought this phone with a couple of key expectations:

1. Clearer, louder, wider-range signal than my 900 MHz phone (inexpensive Uniden) and
2. A good answering machine, as my previous experience with Phonemate has generally been excellent

Failed on both counts! The signal, which was slightly better than the 900 MHz when I got it, is prone to interference from microwaves, tvs, you name it. Also, the handset volume has gotten fainter over time, to the extent that it is barely usable (and there's no indication that the battery is low).

The answering machine was a huge disappointment - the digital recording is so murky that you literally cannot understand messages, no matter what the volume or how close you place your ear to the speaker.

When I tried to find information on how to troubleshoot this equipment, I discovered that casio does not have a website anymore, at least not one that offers any product support...

All in all, I'd avoid this model like the plague.
