Summary: It's ok, wouldn't buy it again
Review: My husband & I bought this phone for the gHz and DSS technology. When we installed it, for the few couple weeks when we got a phone call, there was an echo sound. That ultimately went away, but recently there is a "beep" that occurs on the other side of the line. It sounds like I pushed one of the digits, but the person on the other side of the line hears the beep. On my side of the line, it sounds like the other person's call waiting beeped. I've called Southwestern Bell twice and have followed the instructions, to no avail. They want me to mail it in to be fixed. Such a hassle for an expensive phone.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Keep looking
Review: My wife and I bought this setup in hopes of having more phones located throughout the house. That part worked out well. After approx. 3 months the caller id screens, which also displays the menu, quit displaying anything. Phones still work, you just can't see the number you are dialing, no big deal had to do this for so many years before. The volume must be constantly adjusted, it appears they have a feature built in to go to midrange volume everytime you answer the phone, not a bad idea, but as someone with a slight hearing problem it is quite annoying to have to increase the volume everytime I talk to someone. I tend to use my cell phone for local calls instead of the home phone now.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: short life quality
Review: We purchased 2 sets of these and the caller ID screens have gone out on 3 out of 4 units after 6 months. The sound quality on 1 is distant and faded, and on another it has a severe echo. Disappointed with the life and quality of the product for the money spent.
