 Superb Little Telephone January 27, 2008
Old Sea Dog 1957 (Citrus Heights, CA USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I originally bought this unit to replace the old-fashioned telephone I had to use at work for a while. Then when the company upgraded to an entirely new system, I brought this little jewel home. I am very pleased with it, the quality and features are excellent, never have had any problems with this or the extension units in over a years worth of regular use. Everything works as it should, and it was very easy to set up. It is now the only telephone system we use at the house, and we couldn't be happier. A good choice if you like this style of telephone. Highly recommended if you can still find one, but AT&T has newer models now that are probably even better.
 Don't let this happen to you!!!! Do not buy one of these!!!!! August 13, 2007
Dean C. Gilkey (Woodbridge, VA)
...No fooling, we have one of these and it works most of the time...it went down for a while, the help line told us how to clean the contacts (of new equipment?), oh, and we bought one of those extra units for an extension. Since we bought it, it has rarely worked or worked right in 3 or 4 years. It has been unplugged for years - I wasted a lot of money on that piece of junk. We got counseled on how to fix that one, too, and it failed.
...A T & T, in my mind, used to be a respectable name for a company that did telephone service and sold good merchandise. I will not buy any more equipment from them ever - their equipment is sub-standard and stinks. And if A T & T ever cares to call me and make it right, call 703-303-2209 - I won't hold my breath, though.
...THE BOTTOM LINE IS THIS: DO NOT BUY THIS FROM A T & T OR ANYONE ELSE. COMPARISON SHOP AND BUY ONE OF MANY COMPETITORS' DEALS - YOU CAN FIND A BETTER PRODUCT THAT A T & T'S, FOR LESS MONEY.
Pleasantly Suprised With The Quality & Features April 14, 2006
Fair Reviewer (Washington, DC)
Having owned and been very satisfied with a Siemens cordless phone system in Europe, I was dissapointed to see that Siemens appear to be withdrawing from the market in the US. I required a 5.8GHz system, and therefore Siemens was not an option.
I looked at most of the brands on the market including Motorola (large chunky phones), Uniden, Panasonic (both seemingly having poor build quality), VTech and AT&T.
I settled on the AT&T E5640 with two additional handsets and even though I have only had the system a few weeks, I am very pleased with the build quality and functionality of the phones, as well as the price. It is a modern design, smaller form phone with no exposed aerials, which I always fear, can easily be broken off.
We all know that products are built much more cheaply today and build quality is frequently an issue, but the phone has a good weight and feel to it, is formed well and the buttons feel as if they will not fail after only a few presses.
Incidentally, VTech now manufacture AT&T phones, but the quality of the AT&T models still seems to surpass that of the VTech models I viewed.
Having looked long and hard, and held many display model phones, I can say you will not be dissapointed choosing this feature rich, well built and good value for money system.
 weak phone/answerer January 16, 2006
Napa Neighbor (Napa, CA)
We purchased this phone/answerer and an expansion handset and returned them because it did not work well and we were disappointed. The answering machine sounded very poor with a tinny sound that distorted the voices. The speaker on the base is small and the voices sound un-natural. Our recorded outgoing announcement sounded weak and cheap. The phone had an echo periodically which the callers on the other end of the line did not hear but was annoying to us using the phone. The only positive was the speaker phone on the handset which did sound good. I would not recommend this phone/answerer to anyone.
