We purchased this phone with four headsets about a year and a half ago. Overall, it has performed very well - the headsets retain their charge for a long time while off the cradle (they often go for several days before being returned to the cradle for part of a day). We've never experienced interference on the sets and everything works in a straightforward, logical manner regarding saving numbers, viewing caller id, etc. The speakerphone - like most - sounds a bit hollow, but it is still clear enough for long, hands-free conversations. We don't often use the answering machine, but it is also easy to use when we need it. This has been a great cordless phone system.

I'm 67 years old, and I've been through a LOT of phones. The Panasonic 5.8GHz is simply the best I've seen. This order was just for an additional handset, but I've been using their 5.8GHz for over a year. Compared to earlier (lower GHz) generations, the sound quality is much better, and the Panasonic has every feature that I can imagine. My wife uses the phone for business, and she threw out two competitive brands for rather minor quirks that bothered her when on the phone a lot. But, she loves this one!

Oh, one last thought. It might apply to all 5.8's, but the battery life (between charges) is much longer than 2.4's, etc.

This may be the last time I purchase a land line phone. Hardly anyone calls me on my land line anymore... everyone calls me on my cell. (duh) So even though this has been a great phone, it's days are numbered.

Works perfectly to replace an identical phone which we accidentally broke. It works seamlessly with our current network of two other phones like this. Easy to program and use.

I needed to add a cordless handset at home so I ordered this additional handset and I'm glad I did. At first I had a tough time figuring out how to link it to my existing handset so, I contacted Panasonic directly through an online chat. They were quick and very helpful. I was able to sync up my new additional handset in less than 1 minute.

This does not work with my existing system. It turns out there are 3 different Pansonic systems of this type and mine does not accept a third handset. This info is not in the product description. A total waste of my money. I ended up buying a 5 handset Uniden set at Costco for just a third more than I paid for this handset !

I really liked this phone for many reasons - good clarity - long battery life - sturdy design and ease of use. The features are better than many other phones I have had including sending the phonebook from one phone to another. Consider this phone - the base unit and the additional units if you want a good home phone.

We had a few missteps with the delivery of the correct unit. The customr support was very good in resolving the problem (the wrong unit being delivered). The unit works as advertised and the price was right.

Small issues were quickly corrected by the vendor and the replacement systems works great...

The phone is great, but the instructions for Registering it with the base could be better.I had to call Panasonic for instructions. Than it was easy to register it. I am happy with it.
