Panasonic KX-TG5672B

I am a work at home telecommuter and although I don't have excessive needs, there were several features I have found to be near vital for the work at home person.

* comfortable headset which stands upright easily.
* headset speaker phone with mute
* base unit speakerphone with mute
* 5.8 GHz to not interfere with wireless network
* digital answering machine
* call waiting

For someone just starting out as a telecommuter, the speakerphone features and mute features are indispensible. Some people prefer headsets, but I find it too similar to being leashed to your desk. A good headset speakerphone prides a quality speaker with which you can listen to conference calls, while on mute, and the microhones are very good quality so those on the other line can hear you well. The Panasonic KX-TG5672B is all of this.

The base system is not too large and take up too much room. Additional features like being able to interact with the answering machine from the headsets is a very nice feature also.

I had a V-Tech cordless phone previously and there is a noticeable quality difference between the V-Tech and Panasonic brands. I did quite a bit of research and read many reviews on the cordless, 5.8GHz, answering machine + speakerphone models. The Panasonic really seems to be out in front.

I have been very satisfied with the KX-TG5672B, it has proved itself to be well made and I have had no issues in the 4 months I have used it. I would recommend it to anyone.

I purchased this phone system as a gift. I set it up and used it extensively. The handsets have features that you are used to finding in a cell phone. Many different ring tones to choose from, the antenna lights up when a call comes in. You can even set special colors and ring tones for specific callers so you'll know when they're calling without picking up the handset.

Talking caller ID is great too. No more rushing to find the phone only to discover it's a sales pitch or a call that could wait.

I set this phone up on a voice over IP cable modem phone and the calls are loud and clear.

The phone is running next to an 802.11b/g wireless computer network and has NO interference at all.

One suggestion to make the batteries last longer: Do NOT leave the phone sitting in the charger all the time. This will basically be constantly charging the batteries and will wear them out MUCH faster. Instead leave the phone off the charger until the battery alert beeps and the phone displays "recharge" on the screen. Then let it get a full charge. You'll find that the batteries will not need to be replaced for a year or more instead of 6 months or so.

I liked sound clarity and all features of the phone including Answering machine sound quality.Base and handset speakerphone is excellent.Took out one star because there is speed dial from base and not handset.


Update: Both phone gives "no link to base" error now(after 3 years of use).Have to keep it on base permanently to make it work.

I just love this phone, I did a lot of research for a new phone as I have not bought one for more than 8 years. I previous had a Uniden and I had a problem losing calls with the flash being so close to the ear piece and I was ready for a phone that was designed different. I love this phone clear and no static, two headsets are great. Everything is great with this phone has so many of the features I looked for in a phone.

I bought two sets of this model. Used it for AT&T CallVantage, Internet phone calls. It does excellent job. Clear and loud enough for people with hearing loss. Panasonic always has the best phones.

This is a great phone. The only thing it is missing is the buttons to light up so you can dial in the dark.
Answering machine in the base and you can dial from base using speakerphone. This phone talks. When someone calls it reads aloud the name showing on the caller i.d. Handsets are just like cell phones. Two handsets are nice, just plug in to the wall and it communicates with the other handset and the base unit. Fabulous.

This phone performs very well. It has all the latest features and is easy to use. I use it with a Digital Voice set up from my cable company, which runs the phone line through a modem and the voice clarity is EXCELLENT both ways. My only complaint is that the talking caller ID mis-pronounces everything and sounds a bit ridiculous.

I recently purchased the Panasonic KX-TG5672B phone. This phone has everything needed and more.

The phone kit included two handsets and the base which can also be used as a speakerphone unit. Each handset has the convenience of retrieving phone messages. To know if you have a new message, just look at the atenna on either phone. It is illuminated. Each phone has lots of room for personal contact numbers. There is also a conference selection. If you need to tell someone something in another room and you don't feel like yelling, pick up the phone and conference to the other phone. It is so cool. There are other options, but way to many to list.

The clarity on each phone is crystal clear. No fuzzy or hollow sounds or static. I had other cordless phones, the other person's voice sounded hollow. Not this Panasonic.

The price on Amazon was amazing. Most cordless digital phones come with one handset. Any additional handsets must be purchased seperately usually over $60.00 This phone came with it all for an unbelievable low price of $92.00 plus free shipping.

I highly recommend this phone. It took me awhile to find this phone, but I'm glad I didn't settle for anything else.

We purchased this phone to solve the problem of interferance between our wireless network and our Uniden 2.4 Ghz cordless phone. This phone completely solved the problem, and delivers the clearest calls I've ever heard on a cordless phone. The talking caller id feature is great when you can't get to the phone right away. I would recommend this phone to anyone having problems with interferance between wireless devices and a cordless phone or if your tired of hearing lots of static from your cordless. The price from Amazon was EXCELLENT compared to other retail stores.

I recently put this unit into use. It has many nice features which I really like; BUT, be advised:
1. The message alert button on the base is very small and very dim. You have to look very carefully to see
if it is blinking. My previous answering machine had a much bigger, brighter light.
2. The LCD screen on the base is small and could be easier to read.
3. There is speed dialing ONLY from the base, NOT from the handsets. You must use the Phone Book or
dial the number yourself from the handsets. My previous unit had speed dialing on the handset.
4. The message player could be clearer. Sometime I have some difficulty understanding a message.
The sound seems a bit muffled. My previous machine was clearer.
CONCLUSION: Nothing in life is perfect.
