Summary: Do not buy this phone
Review: I bought this phone to replace a 900 mHz model that had poor reception. What a mistake. This one is by far much worse. The call quality is the worst I have ever experienced in a cordless phone. I've tried changing the channel, but I'm convinced that does nothing. The range is horrendous. If you venture more than 20 feet from the receiver, your call is completely taken over by static. It looks nice, that's about the only good thing I can say about it.

Summary: Basic 2.4 GHZ Phone
Review: I bought this phone to replace another 2.4 Ghz phone I got (UNIDEN). The first one broke down twice in a year and I thought "Maybe I should buy a new one" (DUH).Pros: Pretty slim, and light (In comparison with my latest phone, it weights like a feather). Good range. If you install it in a good-center area it should not bother you at all. Like the 2 minutes pager function. Plus it has the option of "pause" for sending tones in network operator. Good volume. The feature allowing you to set it on the wall is great. It keep it's upright position. Complete it with a digital answer machine (Inexpensive some models) and you'll be fine. Cons: It's pretty basic. Doesn't have any caller ID or answering machine. It only have 10 memory preset (I already have 5 stored) only two ring tones (Want poliphonic? get a cell). Doesn't have any mute option. I give it four stars because as a basic phone it won't let you down.

Summary: GE Makes Durable Long Lasting Cordless Phone
Review: I have not purchased this phone, but the 900mhz similar one. I don't feel the need for all this new rang because our apartment is small. I will always choose GE for a cordless phone because our last GE lasted us almost 7rs and it took QUITE a beating. From teenagers, dropping, left off charger that phone never skipped a beat. Naturally after the 5th year we needed a new battery and it worked well for a year but somehow from all the comments Ive heard no phone really lasts well with a new battery. Oh and another thing if you test the phones these days some of them are as light as a feather. A friend had a UNIDEN and dropped it on the kitchen floor it shattered.It was like 2 weeks old. The GE's have a few extra ounces and i'm not afraid of dropping it. Oh and just some of my personal opinion. Yes Cordless Phone and Answering machine combos are space savers but they are a pain when they break. Find a little bigger table and buy a seperate answering machine. Just think of when one of a TV/VCR/DVD combos components break. How useless. GE is a great company for Stoves, Fridges, and Cordless Phones.

Summary: Reliable Phone at a Great Price
Review: I've had this GE phone for four months, now. I bought it despite dire warnings from users who've had trouble with nearly every brand and model of wireless phone. I'm happy to say that I've had no trouble with the phone, and am particulary pleased with the call quality. Calls are clear, and without static or popping, from every part of my house. Signal strength is uniform throughout the house, and I rarely if ever need to switch channels to get a better reception. The phone does have a faintly hollow tone compared to a land line, but it's barely noticeable and you'd have to be very sensitive for it to be an issue. Another reviewer noted that this unit may conflict with wi-fi. I run wi-fi in my house, and have tested call quality with the wireless network on and off, and with the phone's base unit in many different locations. I can plainly state that my phone is unaffected by the wireless network, even when I put the base station right next to the wireless network transmitter. The features of this phone are simple and easy to use. The caller ID pops up quickly and is easy to read. The numbers are easy to read and sound when you touch them. I don't use the programming feature to store numbers, but it appears to be simple to do for those that may want to. It's not chock full of features, but it does have a great set of features for the price. I can recommend this unit unconditionally.

Summary: Good basic phone at a good price.
Review: Puchased this phone 3 months ago to replace a 900 Mhz phone. So far I've been pleased with it. The reception has been good throughout my home and when used outside. All calls on it have been clear. As mentioned by a previous reviewer, the sound can be a little hollow; but it's not enough to detract from a call. I'd recommend this product if your just looking for basic 2.4 Ghz phone.

Summary: Very good cordless phone, but beware...
Review: This is a very good basic cordless phone that has great sound quality and clarity at a lovely price. It's very easy to use. Unlike newer cordless phones, the model has just one "talk" button, so you don't have to remember to press an off button. The volume control is at an obvious place. The only thing you should keep in mind is if you use wi-fi at home (or Bluetooth), both the phone and your wireless device will operate at 2.4Ghz and there can be interference. Depending on your setup and location, the interference may persist even if you change the channels on the phone. Of course, if you don't use wi-fi, this is not a concern to you. This is just a great phone.
