My wife bought one of these. The cord was only a few feet long and can't be replaced. It is hard-wired into the phone with no connector. The cord is so short it's so inconvenient you won't want to use the phone at all.

DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!!

Sounds good- except the phone has a permant cord that allows you to move about 2 feet from the wall. It probably would never work on a desk/counter. This is not worth the trouble that it takes to unpack it and not to mention to add the batteries(not included).

It's a good phone, works well. I like the Caller ID & Function buttons being a different color than from the rest of the phone, makes them easier to see & use. It has good sound & a ring tone that doesn't jangle the nerves.
The only problem I had with it is that the cord goes directly into the phone & one must use the cord that the phone comes with, rather than one already in use. I purchased an adapter so that I could plug it into an extension phone cord because we needed to put it some distance from the wall jack. Not a big deal in my book but one I didn't learn about until I got the phone.
Overall I am pleased with it.

I have tried several slimline corded phones but so far this seems to be the best yet. It has good sound, easy functions and a great ringer.

THe product was described as haveing a backlit LCD display. This phone display is NOT backlit and is very hard to see when wall mounted.

received this phone and I am a little disappointed,the cords are not replaceable and they are too short, other than that it suits the purpose for a land line phone.

This is a perfect phone for my needs. I can make it silent if I don't want to be disturbed, I can set the volume for the conversation and I even have a caller id for a very small price.

Purchased this phone as a backup in our bedroom. We hardly used it. Worked for one year then completely died. No ring tone at all. Now I have to add another piece of electronic/plastic to the landfills. Plus this phone ate up batteries for the caller ID.

This phone is perfect for our extra phone in case of power outage. It is also a good phone to leave in the family room for teenagers because no one can walk away with it! It has good sound, etc.

The caller ID works as expected. The list of incoming calls is a nice feature which was unexpected.
