A seamless additon to my phone network March 18, 2010 M. Alphonse (DE, USA) This works just as expected. I've increased the number of extension by 1 and it was so simple!
Nice cordless phone March 17, 2010 W. E. Webb (Bluffdale, Utah United States) This add on cordless phone is designed very well. Its simple to use and is very clear. I can't comment on reliability yet but I really like the intercom feature for talking from the basement to main floor rooms. The directory feature is easy to use and fairly easy to make entries into.
Workin' great... March 15, 2010 Homeschooling Mom of 3 (Georgia) ...but where's the belt clip??
The phone works great--the speaker is clear and easy to hear on both ends of the conversation. I like the intercom feature. Maybe I'm a nerd, but I like to have a belt clip on my cordless phone, so I can hook it to my pocket while chasing after kids playing in the yard.
The best phone I have ever bought March 13, 2010 E. Nolan (CA USA) I purchased the set that has the main phone and base and four additional handsets. I liked the phone so much I added an additional two. I love the intercom feature. No more yelling for the kids, I just call the handset and they come. I love the speaker phone feature which allows us to talk to family in Texas as a group. The sound is clear and crisp and it is like they are in the room. The main set can be set to beep if there are new messages. That is a nice feature since my teenagers don't always tell me that I have messages. The only feature I am not too keen on is that if there is a missed call, to clear the missed call you end up scrolling through all the calls. This is because it doesn't highlight or indicate that I can tell that viola this is the missed call when it comes up on the screen. It is a small deal, and if I get a chance to read the booklet I might find a solution.
Overall this is an awesome deal, and a great phone set. I bought the main set at Costco.
Intercom Use and Handset Naming is Substandard March 9, 2010 Herbert G. Zeller In addition to the two with the base, I bought three additional handsets to distribute around my three level home. The handsets are automatically numbered 1, 2, 3...and cannot be renamed to identify their location in the house (and where the charging station would be), such as: family room, bedroom, kitchen, study, living room. A specific name is much easier to remember when calling another room/location than associating a handset number with the each location. This feature was available on the inexpensive cordless phones I replaced.
Secondly, when using the intercom function to call from one handset to another it is not possible to CALL ALL the handset simultaneously. Only one other handset may be called at a time, and only the handset that is called may be used to answer the intercom call. Thus, if you call the handset where no one is nearby to answer, you must call all the other handsets individually until you find the person. In addition, if you hear the handset that is called ring you cannot answer it except with the handset that is ringing. None of the other handsets can respond to the intercom call. This just about eliminates any convenience a multi-station intercom offers.
