I can't tell you how disappointed we are in the AT&T 9350 900 MHz Cordless Phone and Answering System. We have always used AT&T products in our home and have always been pleased with their performance. However, this phone does not meet our expectations for the following reasons: 1. Ringer on phone and handset are not coordinated with each other or the other phones in our house. There is a symphony of multiple rings that does not stop even after the handset is picked up.

2. Reception is terrible! We thought that 900 MHz would give us decent range but even when we're using the phone upstairs (only about 50 feet from the main unit)the reception is fuzzy and inconsistent.

3. You are not able to say "hello" as soon as you pick up the handset. You must wait about 5 seconds until the ringing stops and then give a delayed "hello." This is very annoying to our callers. In addition, we have picked up the handset several times and are often disconnected from the caller.

Maybe we expected too much, but we would not recommend this product to anyone.

The 9350 has a clock for time/date stamp of messages but all it takes is for your power to go out for a second and the time is lost. Digital devices from thirty years ago had that problem, but it shouldn't happen today.

1. Phone and base ring alternately, which is VERY ANNOYING! I should have returned the phone for this problem alone, but now it's too late

2. Can't answer the phone right away: After pressing talk on the phone, you have to wait several seconds before the phone "works".

3. The microphone on the handset no longer works; I just had to return it. This is really annoying because they can't service it locally - you have to mail it in and be without an answering machine for two weeks.

It takes seconds for the phone to turn on, and you can't actually pick up from the base station, without the headset. We're returning the phone, because it's just too annoying.

I bought this phone in September of 1999. My headset is already broken

I had a previous AT&T 900mhz phone, which was world's better....but this one is just too small. The speaker is too small, the unit is too small, and it is difficult to lean the phone against your shoulder while talking. The sound wasn't all that great either....AT&T overall is a good phone company, but this is better for kids.

We have always purchased AT&T phones for their reliability but this phone has been disappointing.

You can turn off all of the ringers on the phone, but when someone calls and leaves a message you still hear their voice as they speak to the answering machine. I like to have the phone off when my toddler is napping so it doesn't wake him, but this phone won't allow me to eliminate the sound of a caller's voice (unless I turn the answering machine completely off and don't record incoming calls).

I've also found that the sound is very fuzzy with both the reception and answering machine.

This phone requires that you guess when to say 'hello' after picking up the receiver because of an inexplicable delay circuit. Often the caller hears some fragment of 'hello' if you guess wrong and doesn't know what's going on. You have to reset the clock every time there is a power outage. Outgoing message quality is poor. If you attempt to delete one message of a group sometimes all are erased. I can't wait to replace it - I only wish I had returned it immediately but thought I'd get used to it.

I've had one for a while and it words great. I can't believe how long I suffered using an old analog tape message answering system. I payed a bit more for mine at another store but don't regret that because I hate phone troubles and this one so far has had none.

I have had the phone for about 2 months. Handset already broken. I wouldn't buy this phone.
