5.0 out of 5 stars The GE 27928GE5 2.4 GHz analog phone, January 29, 2006

The GE 27928GE5 2.4 GHz analog phone is, without a doubt, the best of the simple, basic cordless telephones. Like any electronic device, individual problems can arise, and I suspect that others who have written somewhat negative reviews were probably the victims of those ooccasional problem products. I have a half dozen of the GE 27928GE5 phones scattered around the house and they all have performed flawlessly, that's why I standardized on this particular model. They are getting harder and harder to come by these days, but if one searches enough, there are still a few dealers that carry this particular model telephone. I hope that Amazon continues to stock them because they seem to have the better price. The GE 27928GE5 phone is a basic, 10-memory phone with redial, ringer on-off, flash function and a volume control. That's all that I wanted in a telephone. The best thing about the 27928GE5 is that it sounds like a corded phone, not like a typical cordless, and being analog, it's audio is clean and without the normal digitizing distortions and "odd sound" of so many of the digital audio telephones out there today. Clean sound, simple operation, basic features and an attractive price in an attractive looking package was what I was hoping for in a cordless phone and the 27928GE5 provides just that. Let's keep our fingers crossed that GE continues to make them.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sound Quality is Awful, January 1, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: GE 27928GE5 2.4 GHz Analog Cordless Phone (White) (Office Product)

I liked the features of this phone, and the price was good, but I tried it for about a month and finally took it back. The sound quality is awful. I'm disappointed, because I have a GE phone I bought in the '80s that still works like a charm. I have the best hearing of anyone I know, and I could hardly hear people on the new phone without turning the volume all the way up--and then I got a static sound when I or the other person spoke.

1.0 out of 5 stars Phone will not last, June 1, 2006

As others mentioned, we bought this phone for the price. I would disagree with one previous note, the sound quality was always very clear. But, 2 years later, we are buying a new phone because the buttons stick on this one. After about 18 months of moderate use, the buttons started responding sporadically. Sometimes they work fine, other times they would not even respond to being pressed, and then other times, they would double dial when you press them once. I would not recommend this phone to anyone who wants something that won't be in the landfill 2 years later.
