Review: I've owned a VTech cordless since '96, and when the lines on the display started to "go" from old age, I was thrilled to replace it with the 1932 because it had precisely the features I wanted--speakerphone on the base and dual Caller ID--with none of the ones I didn't--a second line or answering machine.Unfortunately, the Caller ID on the base is not all it's cracked up to be. It does display the incoming call information while the phone is ringing, but you are unable to scroll through (or place calls via) the stored Caller ID information. This is one of my primary uses of CID, mostly to check "who called" before dialing in to get my messages, so this is a major dissapointment. I have emailed VTech's customer service regarding this issue, but they did not bother to respond. Also, the speakerphone in the handset is unimpressive. It cuts in and out and really isn't useful for carrying on a conversation. It's serviceable for waiting on hold, but even then it can be difficult to tell the difference between the party picking up, and the phone cutting out. This is a minor issue because I rarely use the speakerphone on the headset, just that on the base for listening to messages. Other than that it is a nice phone with good quality, I just wished I'd bought it from somewhere with a more leniant return policy. I would have taken it back and waited for "next year's" model, which surely will have these problems fixed.

Summary: Great Phone, great features
Review: In the process of setting up my home office, I needed to find the right phone. My company recommended a corded speakerphone, but I like to be able to move around when I need to. I spent several months and purchased a corded speakerphone and 2 cordless phones. I wasn't happy with any of them. Either they didn't have a mute button on the handset or they didn't have one of the features that I was looking for. I needed a Spread Spectrum (security) cordless phone with a mute, msg waiting indicator, and (if possible) a speakerphone for those long teleconferences that I could just listen to. This phone had all of those features AND sounds good regardless of whether I use a headset, the (cool) Handset speakerphone feature, or the base speakerphone feature. And it was much cheaper than other DSS phones that I looked @ in the stores. Great Phone!

Summary: OK phone, No Caller ID
Review: The caller ID feature on this phone takes so long to register who has called that your answering machine has picked up before you can know who called. If you are buying a phone with built in caller ID, look elsewhere.

Summary: Feature packed
Review: This item was a gift, based mostly on the fact that it had a speakerphone feature. The quality and durability of the handset were just a bonus. The speakerphone is one of the better I have used. The mic pickup is excellent and does not requre the user to raise his voice at normal distances. The pickup is such that it delivers a clear tone ever across two rooms. The quality of the speaker is good as well. There is a nice 'intercom' feature between the handset and base unit that works well. Could be useful in the future. The caller ID info is shown clearly and the system to manipulate the info in easy, if not intuitive. There is a second battery charger set into the base unit. Not only does this allow you to have a second battery charged, but it will power the base unit in case of a power failure. I don't know of many other cordless phones that work without external power. Other nice features include an accurate voicemail light, easy to use beltclip, headset jack, and number storage. As for the durability? It passed my two-year-old's test with flying colours.

Summary: Forget this one
Review: This phone had every feature I was looking for-dual keypad, speakerphone, etc. Unfortunately, any time I walk to the back of the house or upstairs,it cuts out and reads "channel searching", then finds a new channel. This happens alot. I do not have a big house. As soon as I walk away from the base it starts in. It is so annoying and it happens about every 1 1/2 minutes until I go back into the room with the base. I live in residential area of a small city so there isn't a lot of interference from surrounding buildings. It just shouldn't channel surf this much. I'm dumping it.

Summary: Great features - poor quality
Review: This phone has terrific features such as dual keypad on base and handset, speakerphone on base and handset, and most impressively caller ID windows on both the base and handset. However, the quality is very poor and it has some design flaws. The range is horrible - I was unable to walk outside without the phone cutting out for two or three seconds, and I could not walk to my mailbox without losing my call. Also, the phone does not rest well on its cradle which makes it nearly impossible to mount on the wall bracket. My first 1932 had to be returned within a week because it fell off of it's wall mount and the antenna broke (the antenna was in the down position and it still broke). All in all I was very dissapointed with this phone and with V-Tech customer service. I ordered this phone directly from V-Tech's web site and had many, many problems working with them. The great features aren't worth the faults of this phone.
