Consumer review (epinions.com)

Very happy with purchase

We were shopping for a phone with caller ID and keypads on the base and handset so that if the handset is misplaced, you can still use the base. We had a Panasonic for several years with these features, but it eventually wore out. In looking for a new ...

Decent sound, easy-to-use, small, Speakerphones/keypads/CallerID on handsets and base, intercom

No central directory, so time-consuming to enter numbers on base and handsets

2 years and only one problem

I bought this phone and the 6 handsets over two years ago and it has served us all well for that time. We have had only one problem with this phone. One of the extra handsets had a charging stand that failed. I noticed that this phone is not as ...

Good reception. Good value for all the functions you get.

Memorized phone number process is clumsy and list is different for each phone.

Okay phone, but a little poor on features

This is the answering machine/cordless phone system. Here are my opinions on the features: Keypad on cordless set: The keypad has raised buttons. I've found that it is occasionally difficult to dial phone numbers (i.e. I think I hit the button, but ...

Seems to be reliable, clear sound, not much interference.

volume control could amplify more, quirky operation on some features.

NIce ... but not worth the price

I purchased the Vtech i5881 + Vtech i5801 (color handset) has a package at Sams Club for $159.99 (it is referred to as Vtech i5889 and comes with the base, regular handset and color handset). The i5881 portion of the phone consists of the base and the ...

My new Vtech phone replacing my Panasonic 2.4

I bought this phone to replace my Panasonic that was on the fritz. I bought it mostly on the reviews I read and my parents who have the 2.4 Vtech system. I must say that there are worlds of difference in the two units. Some good things are now present ...

Great sound over the handset or base using the speakerphone. Very clear and lifelike.

Can't transfer phone numbers to other units.

Excellent phone! Worth upgrading to.

My wife and I just purchased this phone and we love it! It's packed with features to please the most stubborn phone critic. Yeah, it's pricey but that goes for any new electronic gadget. The price will drop or just wait until it goes on sale. Pros: ...

Pricey, cannot remotely listen to messages , cannot txfer phone lists to base/handsets

This phone rocks!

I've had this phone for a few weeks now, and so far I'm very happy with it. The signal clarity and range is a massive improvement on my old 900Mhz VTech cordless phone, and the features as regards caller ID, address book, etc. are organized very ...

Attractive design, great functionality, expandable. A good investment.

No option to buy additional handset with fun features (the i5801) with the base set.

Pretty nice phone overall

I used to have a 2.4gz Vtech phone, and it was VERY sturdy, but eventually after all the abuse, it died so I needed a replacement. First I tried the Uniden TRU5885-2, which I really didn't like. So I decided to give the Vtech 5881 phone a try. I wa ...

Nice layout, easy to use, good reception

Pricey, poor speakerphone, flimsy battery compartment.
