Good looks. Good range

Everything else is frustrating. Button sounds / rings / Ringo Volume too loud on pages - scares you! You can't page via handset name (you are allowed to rename handsets and I got 4) onthe the original number. VM indicator wouldn't drop after VM cleared

Great System. Clear calls, long battery life, small and unobtrusive

No "Line in use" indicator on remote handsets to tell you if someone else is using the line

No more interference with my wireless network! Clear sound, I LOVE the intercom feature. No more hollering around the house for my kids

Some of the ring tones are just plain awful

Clear sound, can transfer phonebook and settings between handsets, small. Can set phonebook groups and have identifying ringtones for individual callers or groups. Good price for 4-extension set. Don't interfere with other electronic devices and won't...

Uncomfortable in hands, convex ear area doesn't conform to your face, blue on blue LCD display is hard to read, won't stay charged more than a few hours. Caller ID indicator is the same as voicemail light, so you always seem to have vmail though you...

Looks Pretty

It has been the worst experience ever. I followed the instructions very carefully and charged the phone for 24 hours straight (which by the way shouldn't need to as it uses NMh batteries which don't have a memory effect). After all that, the phones...

Great reception! Unlike the other reviews the battery charge on these phones is great and I've never experienced any problems

Ring tone selection is limited, and what ring tones you do get to pick from are not the greatest, but definantely something you can live with

Excellent Range, Excellent Call Quality, Excellent Design, Intuitive Setup

Some of the handset displays are of a poor quality (readability), there is a delay when dialing phone numbers
