1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware, July 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Conair TAD1214W Digital Phone Answering Device/Caller ID (Office Product)

We purchased this machine because it looked like it had all the features we wanted at a reasonable price. You know that old saying "you get what you pay for," well we did! It lasted about 1 month at which time it started acting strange. One day it just stopped recording messeges, the next day it would and so on. This lasted about a week, then it just locked up. We are looking for a new machine now. Maybe you'll have better luck!

2.0 out of 5 stars Good only for three months, May 23, 2000

This started out to be a good buy, but it only worked properly for three months. The small size and look are great. I also found it easy to use. Unfortunately, it has started cutting off all incoming messages after nine seconds. The manual states that it is suppose to allow for a sixty seconds message. After only three months of use we are forced to buy a new answering machine.

1.0 out of 5 stars Inconvenient failure, June 29, 2000

This phone worked well for about a month. I travel a lot and it is very unreliable on the road. Twice in the past two months it has just shut off and deleted messages. Missed all my birthday calls! Now the machine has just stopped working. Receives calls and shuts off after 7 seconds. This was a waste of money, even if it wasn't expensive. Because now I have to buy a new one and for the two prices combined, I could have had a great machine!
