I read a review of this phone in Consumer Reports, which scored it very high. In fact I think it was rated as a "Best Buy" because the price was so low and the quality was high. I have been very happy with the phone. It is just what I needed for my home office. The sound quality is great and it was easy to program.

The best thing about this phone is the speaker button. When I make a call and get put on hold for the next available operator I just push the speaker button and lay the phone down until the operator comes on. Some companies have you wait 10 to 15 minutes. Sound quality of the phone is excellent.

To use the speed dial, you must first hold down the button to get the number to be displayed. Then press phone or spkrphone to send. I'd say about 80% of the time when I used the phone button I got "number could not be completed as dialed". If I used the spkrphone button instead it always worked, convincing me that it was the phone button and not something else. I also had complaints that people couldn't hear me, but only when I was using the headset (which is most of the time). I use this same headset with other phones, so I'm fairly sure it wasn't the headset.

I returned it for a replacement phone and it had the same problem. I have to say that amazon has made the whole return process very easy. Since the second phone exhibits the same problem, I'll get refunded. I commend their customer service.

This phone is really incredibly good for this price. An added bonus is that you can program pauses in phone number memories thus allowing to create sequences of 1 phone number followed by a PIN to enter in specific area of phone automated systems.

This was a gift for my teenage daughter. She loves the phone and it's features. She uses the speaker phone almost all of the time. I would recommend this phone to anyone.

Sound is clear, good battery life, and you can't tell that I'm using a cordless phone. Exactly the good quality phone I've been searching for and a wonderful price too.I should have come to Amazon first instead of wasting time looking at the cheap deparment store items. There is absolutely no comparison in the quality.

We purchased 2 of these recently -- putting one on the wall. One of our main criteria was that the screen info could be read easily. We are very pleased with the product in this and other respects. Looks good too.

Since I have voicemail already, I was looking for something w/o an answering machine. This is a great basic phone, with caller i.d., great reception, etc. Great price.

Works well, good sound nice features. I'd recommend this phone.

Purchased this phone a month ago and have been very pleased. It is compact and sleek looking. We read the reviews not only on Amazon but on Comsumer Report and they both were very good. We have found the range to be good, too.
