Summary: static and more static
Review: Call goes thru and then the static assault begins. I almost threw this phone at the wall. Junk.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Drops Calls-Inconsistent
Review: I bought the phone based on the good user reviews but was disappointed with the volume of the phone. Some people I called were quiet compared to my other phones, and others were nearly impossible to hear even with the volume turned all the way up. In fact, I found that turning up the volume mostly just increased the volume of the static.

Another problem with the phone is its ergonomics. For me anyway, I had a hard time finding a comfortable ear position, and it was not designed to be held between ear and shoulder. It really requires one hand on the phone at all times.

Summary: Hello....hello.....is anybody there?
Review: I bought this phone for the features and price Uniden offers their products at. The old addage, "buy cheap, buy twice" couldn't be more applicable in this case. I may have only spent [$$$] on the unit, but I would need to spend another [$$$] for a pair of Miracle Ears to hear the person on the other end. Don't waste your money on this puppy!!!

Summary: Great Phone
Review: I bought this phone last week, and at first I didn't think I would like it, although it was very clear. I took it back and purchased a Panasonic model with caller id/call waiting. I had previously bought a Panasonic 900 mhz phone that was really clear. This Panasonic had a lot of static, which was very irritating. So, after two days, I returned the Panasonic and re-purchased the Uniden. I've been very pleased with it. It is very clear and easy to use.

Summary: Best damn cordless I've ever owned!
Review: I had my 2960 for a couple of years, can't remember the exact date I bought it. I have to say it was an excellent phone. Great reception, great range, great sound quality. ... Anyway this is an excellent phone. ... If you can find one...BUY IT!!!

Summary: Crash Resistant
Review: I have owned and used a lot of telephones over my 68 years and rate this equipment among the best. Recently I dropped it on a concrete floor, expecting it to shatter into pieces or at least become damaged. Result: not a scratch and the unit works just fine. Surviving the crash may have been just luck, but I would rather attribute it to the quality of the product. Uniden has manufactured enough phones to know how to get it right. All in all the phone gets 5 stars for truth in advertising about all of the features and delivering what was promised. Why spend more for enhancements that already are part of this package? After using it for a while, I can recommend it as a "best buy" in comparison to other phones with similar features.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great quality!
Review: I tried several phones before deciding on this one. I thought a 2.4 GHz phone would be better but it isn't (and Consumer Reports confirm this)- this phone is well-made, well-priced, and is of great quality. The screen is very easy to read and the directions for set-up etc. are easy to follow. The only drawback is not being able to turn the ringer off. A very good buy.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Decent features but poor sound quality
Review: It's a decent phone, but just barely. The base doesn't take up much space, and the phone supports both regular Caller ID and Call Waiting Caller ID. The memory function would be better if you could see the list while you're already on a call (to enter your voicemail or long distance code, etc.), but it serves its purpose. In other words, as a basic cordless phone, its feature set is just what it should be.

My biggest complaint is with the sound quality. The sound generally is muffled, difficult to hear, and quite low-volume. Because of that, I wouldn't really recommend it to anybody.
