Summary: Major piece of junk!
Review: I bought this phone because it had all the features I wanted, such as caller ID on both the handset and the base, digital answering machine, etc. It has proven to be a piece of junk. When answering calls on the handset we get funny noises during which the caller can not hear you. Finally when the noise goes away you might be able to talk. More often than not though, it starts to ring again and then you are disconnected. The handset has proven to be almost worthless for receiving calls. Lately when calling out on the handset, you might get two beeps instead of one when you push a button. The phone is not intuitive at all and you have to keep referring to the manual to use some of the features. I would like to return this phone, but I have to box it up at my own expense and return it. In the meantime I will have to go buy a new phone to replace this one while it is being repaired, so what's the use of sending it back? My advice: Buy something other than a GE product!

Summary: Long term review.
Review: Okay here is my review of this phone. I have had the phone over a year now so I can give ya the low down on it. It is a pretty decent phone overall. There are some things that will really get to you about this phone. So here are the pros & cons.Pros: Good clarity, good range, seemingly sturdy enough, caller id on base and handset, answering machine holds plenty of messages, can listen to messages and screen messages right from headset and overall easy to use. Cons: Very bad battery life!!! Can charge all night and after it is used a little bit and off the base the battery starts indicating it is low. Has done this from the get go. Sometimes the caller id does not work. Will get the data error display. This is annoying when ya do not want to talk to telemarketers :>) If you have new messages and old messages (ones you do not want to delete) you have to cycle through them all to hear new ones. I know some phones will only play new messages which is nice or you can listen to old ones as soon as all new ones are listened to. No lighted keypad. Well that is the low down. Not really a bad phone all in all. Just some little improvements that need to be made. However it is an older model and GE has come out with the new weird looking phones that I guess are the replacement. So this review at this point would be more for someone wanting a used or re-furbished one. Hope this helps.

Summary: This Phone is great!
Review: There were bad reviews on this phone, I think it got a bad rap. I purchased this phone because it had all the features I was looking for. I have had for over 1 month and experienced NO trouble. It is GREAT!! Some of the people that had problems with some of the features probably still havent set the clock on their VCR. The intructions dont go into great detail but they are easy to figure out.

Summary: Great multiple feature cordless phone.
Review: This is the third cordless phone we have purchased in the past 5 years. The features are excellent for the price and include well lit and easy to read screens in both the base and handset. Initial setup was very easy and can be changed quickly. The microphone records the announcement clearly and although the there are only 14 minutes of mail, the recording of incoming messages are very clear. The only complaint I have is that it does not come in white.

Summary: Everything we need...almost
Review: This phone is advertised as having every feature we wanted in a cordless: comfortable handset, speakerphone, answering machine, and memo function. Unfortunately, the so-called memo function is not designed for ease and functional use. The machine does not record the memo with the rest of the messages, so when someone comes home to check for messages, they never know if a memo from a family member is waiting for them because there is no indicator of one. On our old phone, we used the memo function all the time to record a quick note on where we were or when we'd be back. On this new GE phone, whatever is left on the memo is also heard by someone leaving a message on the answering machine. Aslo, the manual that comes with the phone gives no info on how the memo works or how to erase a memo.

Summary: Please do not buy this phone
Review: We bought this phone a little less than a year ago and it is the worst we have ever owned.
-- The main issue is the very short talk time. Even when we first bought the phone after a few hours off the base the battery would die while we were talking.
-- The speaker volume is quite low.
-- Caller ID does not work for call waiting.
-- Easy to accidentally erase messages.
