Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-11 Summary: Great phone, nice features ... This panasonic phone replaced an older Uniden model with poor battery life and poor reception. This new phone lives up to its specs, very clear voice response. Our hard of hearing 90 year old mother loves the speakerphone in both handsets. If you can't find one handset, just press intercom, it beeps the other, and becomes an intercom on the other handset. The buttons are large and easy to use. We like the fact that the batteries are simple NiMH standard units, not expensive special costly batteries. The base unit takes ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-02 Summary: Decent cordless set ... This phone does the job. It's a good phone if you have limited desk space. Speaker phone works great and the ring volume is good esp if you're running around the house all day. The only problem I've got is that the handset display never syncs with the answering machine--it always tells me that I have a new voicemail even after deleting all messages; so the handset is not reliable in notifying me if I really got a new message or not. But overall, satisfied with phone. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-17 Summary: Excellent value for money. ... Prior to this one I had GE cordless phone, but the battery of that phone was horrible. This one has a amazing battery life. Apart from the battery life the voice quality is also good. Phone book is also good. ...more

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-15 Summary: Great Phone ... I have this phone set about two weeks, I found it very easy to program, the instruction manuel was clear and easy to follow, the hand sets are light and comfortable, also the display is quite easy to read. Most of all it has a high volumn for hearing, I am slightly hard of hearing, I had problems with other phones, but not this one. I do miss the speaker, but that is minor. I would certainly recommend this phone set to anyone. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-03 Summary: Great buy! ... This phone beats the heck out of some of the very pricey brands. I previously spent $100 on a set of GE 6.0 phones, and they were constantly not functioning - but these work well all the time. Great price for a good phone. The only downside is the handsets are not very self-explanatory, so you have to consult with the instruction manual often to know how to do things. ...more

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-16 Summary: Panasonic Dect 6.0 Phone System ... This is a very good phone system for the money. One of the problems with my previous cordless phones was battery replacent costs(almost cheaper to buy a new phone). This sytem uses AAA NiMH batteries which are quite inexpensive to replace when it should become necessary. I also like the fact that you can add numbers to your library from any phone and it can then be used by any other phone on the system. Voice quality is also very good. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00138DJW4/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_title ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-16 Summary: I've got nothing but great things to say!! ... We bought this phone after reading a lot of reviews on line and must say that it met all of it's expectations. Great clarity, talking caller id (you can program it to say something other than "call from Doe, John" to "call from Dad"). No problems or interference with Wi-Fi signals, good weight (doesn't feel like a cheap phone) and wall mountable base. Seems to hold a charge for a long time as well but it's new and batteries are fresh. Another great feature, these phones use run of the mill rechargable batteries. If ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-17 Summary: Too Tiny for me ... Honestly, I did not actually use this phone. I set it up and knew instantly that the hand set way just too small for me and I have small hands. It just felt akward in my hands like it was slipping right through my hands, turned me off. It's better for me to touch and hold the receiver in person at a store to see if it's too my liking. ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-03 Summary: Good basic phone ... We mainly use our cell phones so we did not want to buy something too expensive. Our old phones would no longer hold a charge so we were looking for a basic phone with at least two handsets. The phones are comfortable and getting your messages from either handset is a big plus. My only disappointment was that the handsets do not offer a headset jack. I had thought it had one since Amazon showed that many people purchased a headtset along with this phone. My mistake for not reading the description closer. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-11-06 Summary: Works great....but ... This system is awesome, great clarity easy to use. But sometimes it acts like a computer. freezes up makes u return handset to base.

[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-23 Summary: Cool Phone. Feature-Packed. Great Value. ... I picked this up from a local retailer (Circuit City), and it's been a great buy. I've owned a few Panasonic phones before, and they have all been durable, high-quality, a great value. Their features go beyond the price bracket, and all my Panasonics have out-lasted even the more expensive models (Uniden and Vtech).
