Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer At Panasonic, we never stop trying to increase our knowledge of the ways in which technology can improve people's lives. That's why we've engineered our latest line of DECT 6.0 digital telephones with even more innovative features that enhance the way you communicate. Designed to complement your lifestyle and improve the way you live, our 2009 line features big button handsets and larger, clearer displays in sleek, simple packages.

Panasonic DECT 6.0 phones can accommodate up to six handsets - without extra wiring. Simply plug the base unit into one jack and distribute additional handsets wherever you wish.

With Choice Mail, you can quickly view and retrieve a specific recorded message.

Long Range, Excellent Clarity and Greater Security
DECT 6.0 (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications) technology lets you move freely around your home with long range and amazingly clear sound. It also assures greater protection against eavesdropping for all your calls. Operating in the 1.9GHz frequency range, your phone will not conflict with other wireless devices such as computer routers, wireless keyboards, microwave ovens and other common household devices.

Put a Handset in Every Room
With two handsets (one base and one satellite handset) and the option of adding up to four additional handsets¹ — all while using only one base and one phone jack — go ahead and put one in the den, the kitchen, the master bedroom and the living room so you won't have to make a run for it when the phone rings.

Silent Mode Lets You Choose When and Where the Phone Rings
Now you can program each handset to ring — or not — at your discretion. Before going to sleep, simply set the bedside handset to Silent Mode so that it won't ring in your bedroom. In the meantime, the handset in the den will still ring when that important call comes in without disturbing the person who's sleeping.

The Phone That Talks
Now you don't have to be holding the phone to see who's calling. Using text-to-speech technology, the Caller ID² information is announced between rings. The phone also boasts a talking alarm clock that will tell you when it's time for lunch, and a talking battery alert that politely tells you when your battery is low with a "Please charge phone" reminder.

Block Unwanted Calls
Store the Caller ID info of any and all unwanted callers into your phone's Call Block list so that you can eliminate future pesky calls. After the information is stored, those unwanted callers will receive a busy signal when they call you again.

Never Miss a Call with the Light-Up Indicator
Don't miss important calls when the ringer is off. The Light-Up Indicator with Ringer Alert at the base of the antenna will flash quickly to show that you have an incoming call, and it will flash slowly to let you know you have a new message. So turn off the ringer and never miss a call.

Choice Mail
With Choice Mail, you can quickly view and retrieve a specific recorded message among many. No need to listen to snippets of other messages to get to the one you want. It’s one more way Panasonic designs communication solutions for the way you live.

1. Additional handsets sold separately.
2. Requires subscription to name-and-number Caller ID, call waiting and/or voice mail services offered by certain local telephone companies for a fee.

KX-TG7432B includes these additional features:

• Expandable up to six handsets
• Up to four-way conference capability
• Large-text display mode
• Handset locator
• Handset intercom

What's in the Box
Two cordless handsets, one base, one charger, one telephone cord line, two AC adapters, four batteries, two belt clips, and operating instructions.

5.0 out of 5 stars State-of-the-art performance with a sharp, sensible design, June 20, 2009

If you like its features, you'll probably like this phone a lot. It's the best I've owned during the past 30 years. Considering my own relatively basic tastes and needs, I especially like the following:

* simple yet elegant design
* large display, with large text and good lighting
* a very usable speakerphone option
* a dedicated phone book button and handy joystick design
* a phone book that auto-transfers to all handsets
* automatic sleep mode for night-time silence
* generally easy programming even for klutzes like me
* an answering machine with mindlessly simple operation
* and most important, great sound quality and reception

But I don't like these:

* the lack of a ringer on-off switch on the handset
To be fair, though, few phones have such a button these days.

* the fact that I had to return my first unit
The first unit I received had a lot of background static and a slightly skewed visual display, but I'm glad that I tried another. The second unit has crystal clear sound and all looks good. If you notice either of these probs, I'd suggest trying another unit.

You know, it's just a phone, but I'm thoroughly satisfied after a month's use. Great phone, fair price, and reliable Amazon service even when a problem arose. Can't beat that.

UPDATE AFTER SIX MONTHS' USE: No surprises, no regrets. I stand by my review fully. In fact, I recently bought the 4-pack model for my elderly parents, and they couldn't be happier. They especially like its simple, attractive design and its large, bright display. What most impresses them, though, is the handy speakerphone option, which they use exclusively. For anyone with reduced hearing (or tender ears or busy hands), the loud and clear speakerphone could be a primary draw.

I recently ordered this phone, my husband and I think it is fantastic! It has lots of options but the one we most appreciate is the call block feature. It has helped to make our lives a little more hassle free with no telemarketers calling! We also appreciate the larger number display, and the all around ease of navigating the different programs. We are delighted.....excellent quality and excellent price, what more could one ask for?

Love the talking caller ID, block number, and speaker phone features. Menu navigation is easy and intuitive. Also love that it uses regular rechargeable AAA batteries so you don't have to find a specialty battery to replace them once they start to go downhill - just buy some new rechargeables at the grocery store.
