Amazon.com Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description An extension for Panasonic's KX-TG5100M or KX-TG5110M 5.8 GHz expandable phone system, the KX-TGA510M offers the exceptional features you expect from a top-quality accessory handset. The four-line backlit LCD displays up to 50 phonebook entries for speed dialing convenience and are ready for caller ID with call waiting service from your local phone company. With this service, the names and numbers of the 50 most recent callers will be displayed, along with the time and date of the call.

Supports optional headset for hands-free convenience

A built-in belt clip and headset jack provide comfortable hands-free operating options, and you'll have full operational access to your phone's answering system. The mute button provides far more security than simply placing your hand over the speaker, while the privacy button allows you to provide or prevent other handsets from participating in the call. When purchased new from an authorized retailer, Panasonic includes a one-year warranty covering parts and service.

What's in the Box
Handset, battery, base, AC adapter for base, belt clip, warranty, and operating instructions

Note: This is not a standalone phone. It requires one of the compatible base systems shown below (sold separately) to function.

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TGA510M 5.8GHz Accessory Handset for KX-TG5100M Series (Office Product)

good features but... after 1 year of use, batteries in 2 of these phones have extremely short life. Note that there is a class action suit pending against panasonic for this series of phones for this and other quality problems.

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TGA510M 5.8GHz Accessory Handset for KX-TG5100M Series (Office Product)

First of all, this handset will not work alone. You must have the base unit, either the Panasonic KX-TG5100M or Panasonic KX-TG5110M 5.8 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone. I have reviewed that phone elsewhere. This review is for this handset. We purchased this particular handset to go with the Panasonic KX-TG5110M. I knew that this handset had to be "registered" with the base phone. I thought that it would be complicated or that I would have to dig out the manual, whatever. Not at all. We charged the new handset. The instructions appeared in the LCD screen of the new handset, saying exactly how to register the handset. We followed the very simple instructions, it worked, and we were ready to go. We put the new handset in the basement. I was very happy with the whole deal, including the great price. Highly recommended.

This review is from: Panasonic KX-TGA510M 5.8GHz Accessory Handset for KX-TG5100M Series (Office Product)

I have tried every cordless phones with my last batch (Siemens) being thrown away.

Good
Great sound
Great range, basement, front and back yard, no singal loss
Easy setup, just plug in, generally I have had problems with this.

Bad
Heavier than normal, but great battery life
No clock on the LCD?, They get an F on this one
Have to delete each caller ID one-by-one, haven't read the manual might be an easier way.

Overall, this is probably my favorite phone ever.

I own one base unit with four cordless units.
