Not happy

 

Not happy

Bought a used set, but did not know it at the time. Received them Friday. Today is Sunday. The base works OK and has good voice quality on my end, but when I tested it the caller reports a fax machine sound when I first answered. Also, the handset...

Good value

The refirbed units were a little nicked up but still a good value. Every thing seems to work properly.

Good Value

Exactly as described and works very well. I have owned many Panasonic and Radio Shack phones over the years and this system compares very nicely. I especially liked having a hard-wired phone as the base station for when there are power outages.

not wall mountable

An excellent instrument with expandable units BUT NOT wall mountable contrary to reviews; conveniently can update remotes from base.

Best phone ever!!!

 

Best phone ever!!!

I love this phone. It has great features but the best part is its signal strength. You can go anywhere in the house and never get static or interference. Another great feature is that you can put a phone anywhere with electricity. We are going to...

poor sound quality

 

poor sound quality

I have the 8866 system and 8 handsets, but purchased this for the corded handset, and set the extra handsets to this, unplugging the 8866. The base signal is not powerful enough to prevent static even on the same floor of our house. Have to change...

good sound, poor service

 

good sound, poor service

I bought one of these a year ago, and added several handsets. The sound quality is good. The number buttons are soft and attract dirt, and you have to keep cleaning them. However, this last week the main base phone failed for no reason. After repeated...

Decent phone but low battery indicator starts beeping way too early!

 

Decent phone but low battery indicator starts beeping way too early!

I have had this phone for a couple of years now and my my only real complaint is that the low battery indicator starts beeping even if there is over an hour left on the charge. Not only is the beeping annoying while on a call, if you hang up on the...

Excellent Phone System

 

Excellent Phone System

I had a Uniden system with corded base and one wireless remote that worked quite well. I specifically liked the corded base that allowed me to use the phone during power outages. The system could not be expanded to add more remotes, so I went...

Uniden corded/cordless combo

 

Uniden corded/cordless combo

I am very pleased with the performance of this phone. It was very easy to set up and use. I needed a combination of corded base phone with one handset. This model filled my requirements perfectly. I like the fact that it has the capacity to add another...
