Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The KX-TG2432B 2.4 GHz GigaRange system uses frequency-hopping spread spectrum technology for enhanced range and a consistently clear signal. With subscription to local service, it supports caller ID, so you know who's calling to chat, before you even glance at the handset. The 50-station memory stores the most recent callers' names and numbers, along with the date and time of their call.

Access the separate phone book for an additional 50 names and numbers of the people you call most frequently. Both Caller ID and the phone book can be shared among handsets, or you can use each handset to store a separate phone book.

The all-digital answering system is built into the base for a convenient one-piece home telephone system. You can record memos for family members, and also dial into the system and check your messages when you're away from home. A separate charging unit is included for the second handset, which makes it perfect for a bedroom, guest room, or kitchen. Panasonic includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

What's in the Box

5.0 out of 5 stars Last reviewer wrong... this phone is great., June 15, 2005

This review is from: Panasonic GigaRange KX-TG2432B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Black) (Office Product)

To the last reviewer:
You complained about incorrect information from Amazon regarding this phone. Never in Amazon's description do they mention that THIS phone has "talking caller ID". The phone with talking caller ID is the:

Panasonic KX-TG2357B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets, Answering System, and Talking Caller ID (Black). It sells for $110.19 (at the time of this review).

Please do your research and not give a GOOD phone a bad review when your reviewing the WRONG item.

THIS phone is great... and I really have enjoyed using it. It's not as fancy as some others out there, but it does the job!!

This review is from: Panasonic GigaRange KX-TG2432B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Black) (Office Product)

as i was going through the list of features we wanted, this was the only one to fill them all. I wanted 2 handsets, NIMH battery, answering machine, speakerphone, wall mountable. This one has it all and then some, like phonebook that stores info on both handsets, paging and intercom between the hand sets, or the base, you can listen to messages with either handset or the base, lighted ringer and message alert. Those were all great features that i wasn't expecting, but i found them very useful.

This review is from: Panasonic GigaRange KX-TG2432B 2.4 GHz DSS Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Answering System (Black) (Office Product)

For several weeks, we purchased and returned various Uniden and Vtech cordless phones. My husband can now repack phones better than the factory! These returned models were all chosen because of their good reviews on Amazon. They were all returned because of poor sound quality. The quality varied from poor to mediocre.

We were about to give up on getting a new cordless phone for our vacation home, when the salesman recommended this Panasonic phone. We gave it the 'hands on test', and another customer in the store said that the sound was far superior to any of the other phones she had tested, and that she loved it. We then went home to read the excellent reviews on Amazon. Then we ordered it from Amazon because of the lower price, and because at this point my husand vowed never to unpack and repack a cordless phone again.

We were not disappointed - this unit beat the others by miles. We couldn't believe the difference in the sound. No static and it remained clear when we 'test drove' it around the house and yard. The sound is especially important to me as I have trouble hearing on most phones - cell and cordless.

It comes with two handsets which is really convenient as our previous cordless phones only had one. We love the speaker phone and the intercom that work from the base and both of the handsets. We like and use he mute and hold features. It's amazing the range and the sound that this phone has. The handsets are smallish, but still comfortable for my husband's large hands and my medium hands.

CONS: The only weak point of this phone is the sound quality of the answering machine. Our outgoing message and incoming messages aren't as clear as we would like, but the phone itself makes up for this flaw.

This phone won't be used as much as our home phone, so I'm wondering what effect it will have on the headsets if they sit in their charger units for at least a month or longer, without being used - only time will tell.

We also bought a Panasonic KX-TGA 60 headset for this phone, $10.49 on Amazon, and it works very well.

So far we are very pleased with this phone and we like that it only takes 6 hours to recharge, not up to 20 like some other phones. Because of the sound quality of this phone, we also bought a two line Panasonic cordless for our home (model KX-TCA 6502B). Panasonic sound beats them all as far as we are concerned.
