4.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic phone, October 19, 2005

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG5432M 5.8 GHz Platinum Cordless Phone with Answering System and Dual Handsets (Office Product)

I had to buy a new answering machine because my former, an AT& T digital model finally was biting the dust; it was almost 15 years old! I did some research on digital answering machines, and decided that it's be best to get one with a handset.
I love all the features on it as it suits my needs and more:

*The answering device is very clear; so far all messages have been recorded with time & date with clarity. The buttons on the answering machine is user friendly.

*The speaker phone and intercom allows me to buzz my teenage daughter in the lower level of the house instead of shouting.

*The handset, despite it being made of plastic, feels substantial and looks stylish. The orange backlit light is pleasant and useful when dialing in the dark. Voice clarity is great; I have set it on voice enhancer and I think its like having the person you're talking to almost be in the next room.

*The settings are easy to follow in the manual. There aren't so many bells and whistles as well as tech stuff that would drive me to flush the manual,and return the phone.

*The phone and answering device is compact and I like the silver and grey coloring; it has a rich stylish look and doesn't take up so much room.

I would have given this phone 5 stars. My only complaint is that the buttons on the handset are really tiny, and I find myself reaching for my reading glasses to look at what I'm doing. The hanset itself is on the smallish side but again, I think time will help me adjust to its size.

I think, though, that over time, I will naturally get use to the buttons . Its only been a week since I have had the phone and already I am used to the on and off buttons without having to eyeball them.

I purchased the phone at Best Buy for $10 more than what Amazon is offering because I had to replace my former dying machine right away.
I bought this phone because I only needed a certain amount of items on it. I didn't need the speaker phone but I am glad I have it because its a great feature to have. I think that when a phone has too many features on it, it gets complicated and tends to break easily. Overall, I am really happy with this phone.

Needed a phone system that wouldn't conflict with my wireless-g network. This one worked flawlessly. Excellent range can use outside the house. Crystal clear. Transferable phonebook between handsets. Works great with Vonage. It does everything I was looking for.

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG5432M 5.8 GHz Platinum Cordless Phone with Answering System and Dual Handsets (Office Product)

I am very surprised at some of the reviews for this phone, and am glad I did not see them before I purchased mine about 6 months ago. The phone has been flawless for us. We have the base downstairs in the kitchen and the satellite handheld on the 2nd floor in the master bedroom, quite a distance from the base. We use the intercom every so often without any problem. I have roamed the entire house and have had crystal clear reception each time. I have not tried venturing out into the yard very far with it.

The answering machine does everything it is supposed to. I love the feature of erasing some messages and keeping others. My old machine made you erase all or none.

I had a lot of family visiting with their laptops over Thanksgiving and the phones did not interfere with our wireless network. My sister complained that her 2.4 gHz cordless interferes with her wireless network all the time.
