Summary: Not worth the hassle...
Review: I bought this phone last August. The caller ID would work occassionally during the first 3 days, but after that, it simply stopped working. Unfortunately, I waited a month before trying to exchange it and had to send it to the manufacturer. They do not refund, only exchange. When I received the replacement, the caller ID didn't work at all. I continued to return a total of 5 different replacements, not one of them had a caller ID that worked. ..

What a waste of money and time(...

Summary: GREAT PHONE!!!!!!!!
Review: I BOUGHT THIS PHONE TWO OR THREE YEARS AGO. I EXPERIENCED DIFFACULTIES AND HAD GOTTEN A NEW ONE. THE SECCOND ONE IS STILL GOING STRONG. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE BATTERIES HAVE TO BE REPLACED EVERY MONTH IT SEAMS LIKE. WHEN THE BATTERIES ARE LOW, YOU HAVE TO LOOK CLOSELY AT THE CALLER ID SCREEN TO SEE WHO'S CALLING. THE PHONE STILL WORKS WHEN THERE ARE NO BATTERIES OR THEY ARE LOW. YOU JUST CAN'T SEE THE SCREEN. THE A. B. AND C. BUTTONS DON'T WORK. THE DIALTONE BUTTON MAKES A "SPRING" SOUND WHEN YOU PRESS IT. I RECCOMEND THIS PHONE!!!!!!!!

Summary: Caller ID doesn't work
Review: The caller id function simply doesn't work, on the phone I'm replacing Caller ID works fine, plug this one in, set up the A/Cs and all it displays is NO DATA.

Tech support line is all PRE RECORDED messages that don't help.

I returned the first one thinking it was the phone I bought, but second had same issue. Go figure.

Summary: LCD screen devours batteries
Review: Unlike everyone else's phones, my caller ID works.

But it devours 3 AA batteries every 2 months or so.

If you happen to own one of these phones, and you're experiencing similar problems, get a new phone. It's evidently not worth the hassle or postage to have it repaired/exchanged/etc.

If you don't own one of these phones, then don't buy one.
