Perfect

I am someone who always does a ton of research before buying pretty much anything. I have to say this phone does what it is supposed to, is very simple to use and very comfortable (important if you ever make long calls, as lots of phones start to hurt...

great base, poor extras

 

great base, poor extras

The base station phone is wonderful, However, the remote is quite poor and we find we only use it to hear the ring, then go to another phone to talk.

Two Years...

The idea behind this phone is fantastic. One thing that annoyed me was that you can't have both phones on at the same time so that two people can speak from your home (this seems like it should be technically feasible). Worse, is that when a phone's...

Great set, Flimsy design.

 

Great set, Flimsy design.

I had these for over a year. Overall, great phone set to have, but the a/c adapter apparently died out pretty quickly after the NorthEast Blackout. I bet the units still work with a replacement, though I was lazy buying a new power supply. Reception is...

Uniden DXI-986-2 900 MHz Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Extra Charging Cradle

These phones work great! I haven't had a problem with bad reception and I love the ability to have the dual handsets. I live in an apt so I don't know how they would work in a larger house but I can't imagine they wouldn't work as well as any apt's...

I hate these phones with a passion!!!

These have the be the lowest quality phone invented. After just a few months, they stopped working. Occasionally I have to unplug the base or callers get a busy signal. Unless they have a pretty good charge, there is a lot of static on the line. ...

Phone was defective; poor customer service

I bought this phone based on Consumer Reports's recommendation, so I had high hopes for it. Unfortunately, it has given us non-stop problems, and when I contacted customer service at Uniden I was told that I must either be without my phone for about 2...

Excellent for the price..

We have had our dual handset for a couple of yrs and I have been most pleased. I like that I can see who's "beeping" in when I'm on another call. I have had great reception except when I'm by my pc... The volume control feature is a plus also! I love...

Bad Experience

 

Bad Experience

This was a problem phone right out of the box. The second handset never worked. The volume gets softer and softer all by itself. A complete waste of money, I didn't even bother sending it back for a replacement. It was not worth the effort and I didn't...
