Summary: Awful Phone System
Review: One would think that Siemens would not put it's name on such a piece of junk. Terrible reception, constant technical problems reduce this promising system to an extraordinarily overpriced paperweight. Customer service while polite was a complete waste of time, as was constantly sending back units for "refurbished" replacements. Do not waste your time and or money on this system, Siemens should be ashamed.

Summary: Best cordless phone I have ever used
Review: I love my Siemens phone. We have 3 of them in our house and they work beautifully. I love the size of the handset and have found the sound quality to be excellent.

Summary: Worthwhile purchase
Review: Bought the single line/digital answering machine version about a year ago. Since then, I've had excellent performance from this system. The only interference I've noticed has been when the microwave is running on full power. The system also co-exists well with my 802.11b Apple branded wireless network.The handset has been dropped several times, but has never given me a lick of trouble. Have recently moved into a largeish apartment that has only one phone jack, so I will shortly be ordering another handset. The only downside is the rather high price which would rate the deduction of half a star if such a thing were possible with this form.

Summary: Looking for a replacement...
Review: I have a base unit and 3 handsets, and in about a year 2 of the handsets died. One was replaced by Siemens under warranty, and the replacement kind of sort of works if you don't mind pressing the buttons real hard and being patient. One hand set was about a month out of warrenty, and I replaced it with a refub unit, which also kind of works - as long as you don't talk longer than 10 minutes, after which time the handset cuts out. The one handset that still works is one that is not used much. The hand sets are not very robust, and I would definitely not buy a Siemens product (again).

Summary: A promising start--then profound disappointment
Review: Great concept in a phone. It initially worked very well and then rapidly developed problems in the handsets (none in the base unit). Poor reception, poor battery life, etc. all prompted me to return units, only to receive equally poor quality handsets. For the price it's truly an outrage. Now I'm stuck with this pig and I hope this review helps others avoid the same mistake.
Switched to a similar item from Panasonic which works far better.

Summary: NON-DURABLE, REFURBISHED SAYS IT ALL.....!
Review: There are more refurbished Gigasets by Siemens's esp 2400 & 2420 on the market... Does that tell you something....(Duh) Both handsets stopped functioning properly after only a month....repeated registering to base failed..handsets are easily damaged...Do yourself a favor get a DIFFERENT brand. Wish I had read more reviews, before I got mine...they'll work, but not for long.

Summary: Crackling, static sounds
Review: I would NOT recommend this phone at all. The line crackles even when I am standing close to the base, and it is much worse when if you happen to use your microwave. The design of the handset is horrible - when you hold the phone under your chin the placement of the talk button is such that you hang up on your own call and the buttons are not illuminated. I've called Siemens several times and the will not refund my money on this defective unit. Thy are crooks, do not ever buy a phone from them. Their customer service group was completely unhelpful.

Summary: not for heavy use
Review: I use my phone a lot. This one has reasonable features, but navigation (especially the redial facility) is cumbersome and irritating (taking 3 key presses). In addition you have to dial slowly or the phone misses some key presses. Finally the keypad is getting worn out (I've had it for a year). Not impressed.

Summary: Extremely disappointing reception
Review: The base station works okay. The handset is TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE!! I am sorry I bought this thing. I don't know why there are good reviews on this device as mine barely works well enough to replace two tin cans with string between them. I'm looking for a replacement for the whole system.

Summary: Poor Quality Siemens
Review: We bought the Siemens 2402 with two receivers and then a another 2.4 GHz Siemens two-line with two receivers. Both systems exhibit the same really bad quality. Conversations are cut off, as though every other word is transmitted. It seems not to be a range problem, because the problem occurs whether we are five feet from the base, or 100 feet. I finally concluded it was just a lousy quality phone system, especially since the same problem occurs in both systems. Siemens has been totally unresponsive, sending me standard, unhelpful responses to my inquiries.
