Rating: Summary: Feature rich - performance poor Review: I have owned this phone about 5 months now. I have had complaints from others about outbound sound quality at times. May biggest frustration is that when the handset is on the base and a call comes in, if you pick up the handset and try to answer too quickly, the handset seems unable to find the base and I end up having to answer/conduct the business call on the speakerphone, at least until I can hang up the handset and let it "resest" itself, synching up the security code I would guess. The answering machine is very versatile, but the battery backup doesn't seem to save messages when the power goes out, only the memory dial numbers! What good does that do?Would keep looking....
Rating: Summary: Glad to see it's not just me - this phone is a loser Review: I was shopping for a new phone today to replace this ..., and stumbled across these reviews. Glad to see it's not just me who is having problems with this phone. It looked like a great deal when I bought it, but mine suffers from all the same problems outlined by numerous reviewers already. It "loses" the handset, even when you pick it up right from the base - frequently, you have to hang it up again to let it reset before you can answer the phone. When the power goes out, even for a second, you have to pull the power cord out and remove the backup battery to get it working again, erasing all your messages and settings - so much for having a backup battery! Also, the sounds quality is poor compared to my cordless Lucent and Panasonic phones. Do yourself a favor and take a pass on this phone.

Rating: Summary: A great buy: If you only want the date to work for 10 months Review: My family and I purchased this phone at a retail outlet. It seemed perfect, at the time the only phone with these features, however we have had some disappointments. 1. If you attempt to use the base speakerphone to answer a call while someone is on the headset on another line, the headset hangs up and the base takes over. 2. The ring on the headset is not at all loud, and is very easily mistakenly switched off. 3. The instruction manual is shady. It is written in a really annoying shade of blue that makes it almost unreadable, and even the content is scanty. There is little fine print nor easy to follow conditions for proving the phone was purchased within the one year warrenty in order to obtain a replacement. 4. After about 10 months the date began to malfunction. We did not abuse this phone in any way. The date remains stuck at tuesday 8:17 pm. It is very annoying, as you thus do not know when people have called. Reseting the clock has been futile. Maybe we just got a lemon, but buyer beware, keep your reciept. I would give it four stars if it worked all of the time, but the malfunction and thus warrenty question have caused me to dock it to two stars.
Rating: Summary: I guess I am the only one who loves it Review: This phone is great. It is clear and works great. It is also the only phone out there with this mix of features. My one problem is that to make the battery life last REALLY long you have to turn off the ringer which means if you lose track of it you can't use the intercom feature to find it. Thus I have lost the handset and now have to but a new one since nobody seems to sell just the part which I have spent hours searching for and making phone calls to everyone. PS [With the cost of the handset] I may as well buy a new phone....
