Summary: Not worth the price
Review: Although it seems like a nice expandable phone system with high-end design touches, I've found the clarity to be a such an issue that I would not recommend this phone. My older Panasonic 900mHz had much less static and better reception. Occasionally, I've also experienced a weird echo during a conversation. I attempted to rid the line of noise by relocating the base unit, but found no difference in any of the sopts.Also, there seems to be a glitch with the way the edit function works for numbers stored in memory. I was unable to edit the name assigned to a number and had to erase the whole entry to adjust the name. The manual gave a different scenario of what was supposed to happen compared to what I was actually getting on the display. A frustrating annoyance that might be an isolated problem. Either way, mine is going back.

Summary: Lousy quality control
Review: I bought one of these last year. I loved the small size; I like to carry my phone in my shirt pocket always. One the first one you had to tap the base every morning (sometimes more often) or you couldn't hear the other party (they could hear you though). A loose connection. The battery failed within a year. When the headset socket wore out (really) I wanted to buy another type phone. None were as small so I bought another one of these. I had awful clicking on it all the time. It had to go right back. Quality control at Vtech is nonexistent. I bought a Panasonic 2.4 Ghz DSS and it works great, just too big, although the same weight as the Vtech. A tip for shirt users; wrap a rubber band around the clip so it grabs onto your shirt and doesn't fall off when you bend over.

Summary: Nice Phone with Great Features
Review: I bought two of the VTECH 24XX series phones and love them. I bought the 2421 and a 2420. The two phones get excellent reception and offer several unique features like intercom dialing, line use status and handsfree. The intercom dialing is very handy especially if you have a large family or home. The intercom dialing does not prevent outside callers from getting through while you are on an intercom call. The line use status allows you to see if someone is on the line without barging in on someone elses call. The handsfree feature is great because it is on each handset. You just push the handfree button, put the phone down and start talking while you cook, clean, work or whatever. I recommend the phone highly.

Summary: Works very well
Review: I have had this for two years now and don't have any complaints. The intercom feature is very handy when you have more than one handset. The speakerphone feature on each handset is also a very nice feature. As far as range issues I haven't had any problems but I have only used it inside my house.

Summary: This phone ...
Review: I purchased this phone approximately a month and a hald ago and I've had nothing but problems. The renge is horrible in comparison to a phone that I purchased from Panasonic. There is also static and people generally complain that they can't hear me well during conversation. The worst thing about the phone is the battery life. The battery has gone dead several times. I don't recommend this phone. Beware!!

Summary: Perhaps better off with another phone
Review: I purchased this phone as a Christmas gift. I'm disappointed I wasted my time and money with it. The sound clarity was poor- static only a few feet from the base with a clear line of sight to it. It had an echo sound frequently as well. The handset is very small, too small. People with hands just a little larger than normal may not find it comfortable to use. It also doesn't cradle well against the shoulder when trying to talk and use both hands for something else (ie: a 2 year old running around!) Now I must go return it for a refund.

Summary: tried 3 others, this one is best
Review: I tried 3 other phones, all 2.4Ghz from GE, AT&T, and Siemens before I ended up with the VTech. All phones were placed in the exact same place on my desk next to my monitors. Only the VTech had clear receptiion. And, it is very clear, I can hear no static or distrotion (sounds almost corded). My only complaint about the phone is that when you delete the call waiting list it beeps very loudly. I can't find anyway to turn down this beep, even though key press beeps are turned off.
