As a basic, one-line, corded phone, this is adequate. The sound quality is good, and the instruction booklet is well written. But the keypad has an annoyingly stiff touch, and the caller ID screen is not easy to read in most kinds of light. The instructions say it needs three new alkaline batteries every six months; in my experience, it's every two months.

Good solid product. Functions well. Great for power outages, since it doesn't need to be plugged into an AC outlet (Battery powered). The only drawback was the unlit display (can't see in dim light or darkness). A longer handset cord would be nice too.

Good phone overall but interestingly didn't have a speakerphone function or earphone plug in. If it had that, I think it would be fine.

Like most people I wanted an alternative to cordless phones in case of an emergency. The Panasonic KX-TSC11B more than meets my basic needs.

My basic requirements for a corded phone are that it:
* must be black - this phone is black (except for the cord, which is sort of a dark gray)
* must have Caller ID - this phone has Caller ID (the name flashes first, then the number, and if you don't pick up off of this phone it will say "missed call" and include the name/number)
* must be DSL wall compatible - this was one of my main requirements as I have a DSL wall filter and if you're like me you have found that very few phones fit nicely on the wall with a DSL filter, but this one includes a wall adapter and fits in very snugly
* the ringer must be able to be turned off - this has a side button that will allow me to either turn off the ringer or lower it.

Overall this is a fantastic phone. Panasonic makes durable phones that last for years and years. My only complaint is the extension cord. First of all it wasn't black, and second of all it was grossly long (there is no way it would have fit on my wall with my DSL filter) so I had to replace it with a tiny black extension cord.

BTW if you're looking for a set of high-quality cordless phones at a great price, check these out.

Remember, you are what you buy.

So far, this phone has been easy to use. I like having a corded phone on the kitchen wall in case of a power failure. The display is large and easy to read and the sound quality is very good.

Wanted a basic analog phone w/ no frills. The product is very clean in design and is affordable.

After one year the liquid crystal display failed. Now it is impossible to use the caller ID.

GREAT PHONE, CHEAP PRICE and GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY. you wont be disappointed with this phone!

This is a decent corded phone with good sound quality. We bought it for use as a wall phone, and the construction doesn't really warrant that use. It can hang on the wall but doesn't look great. Also, the caller ID screen is very dark and difficult to read. But, as I said, for the cost, it's a decent phone without the bells and whistles you sometimes don't want but get stuck having to get.

If you are not looking for anything fancy but want great quality go for the Panasonic. It is not only durable, it is appealing to the eye. It would make a nice addition to the home or small office.
