I really had hope for this phone but an really disappointed! fist disappointment was when i recorded my message callers will hear, the quality of this recording is the worst I ever heard, i sounded like a robot. I would think this is something that would get better with new technology but this is obviously not the case! The ATT stand alone message machine i had years ago sounded like a human actually recorded the message.

Second disappointment, trying to hold the phone without hands, This is something i would think people would want to do from time to time but i guess the designers of this phone don't! The phone is designed in such a way that it is almost impossible to hold to your ear without hands, i find this inexcusable!

Third, If a cell phone is anywhere near the base station i get a loud blast of interference in my ear! Doesn't anyone at ATT use cell phones?

Fourth, I do not want to hear "you have 2 new messages" every time I go to play my messages. The brilliant ATT engineers seem to think we need to see a #2 on the message machine indicating there are 2 messages in bright red but this is not enough we need the machine to tell us just in case we didn't see it!

I wish Apple would design a home phone, i could see it now designed for ease of use and comfortable to use without hands, when I enter numbers into one handset all the others would update so i wouldn't have to enter my contacts times, once for each handset!

The seller handled everything great the phones were every bit as nice as they had said they were like new and they took great care in packing them I was very pleased with them and my purchase.

This phone set was the greatest disappointment as far as phones are concerned. I figured the ATT name would guarantee a quality product but was I wrong. This had happened to me once before with another ATT branded phone but figured it was a fluke....NOT!
Right away the initial quality...fit, feel and construction seemed shabby....but hey for the money I was OK if it actually worked to make a call....like a phone is supposed to. Well one handset was never able to "find a channel" when I dialed....and the others could not once I moved more than 20' from the base. I had to stay on the same floor where the base was located if I wanted use these....what good is 4 handsets on the same floor when I live in a split level home, hoping I could put one handset on each floor.

The product ordered replaced an identical product already in our home where we had lost three of the four phone handsets. The replacement set is working fine.
