Summary: Great for long distance relationships
Review: These phones are small and comfy to talk with, but you can't use the second one as an extension (ie have your kids talk to granny at the same time) since only one handset works at a time when in use.The big bonus is that you have 10 hours of talk time, and you can transfer the call from one unit to the other, so that makes it 20 hours... lots o' whisperings of sweet nothings!

Summary: OK phone, but reception is sketchy
Review: This is a feature rich, but quality low phone. It is 900Mhz, but I expected a bit better reception. Both phones work off of the main base. Becuase I find the effective range to be about 30ft in a New York City apartment, there is very little utility to the second headset. It would work much better at 2.5Ghz. The backlight on the display also reminds me of a $10 watch I owned in 1970. (In other words it is really dark.) My final evaluation is that it is just good enought not to go through the hassle of returning. I wouldn't recommend it to others - even for the $.

Summary: What good is a cordless phone when you can't charge it?
Review: We purchased the DXI-386-2 because we have been so happy with our older Uniden cordless phones. What a waste of good money. Shortly after purchase both the primary and secondary base started having problems charging the phone handsets. Despite cleaning the contacts, charging would only occur if we balanced the handsets in one of the charging bases at a bizarre angle using scraps of cardboard to hold them in place. 60 days after purchase they ceased charging at all, so we now have two worthless handsets. Call Uniden customer service? Hah! You cannot even get through to a person on their customer service line and many of their automated menu selections simply disconnect your call. This product is bound for the dumpster and we will not buy Uniden again.
