I recently purchased this item and have used it for about a week so far. I'm very impressed with the range and this headset's ability to shield itself from interference. There simply is no "buzzing" while downloading email to my BlackBerry while on the phone with this thing. I'm sure I'll be upgrading my PBX telephone system soon to suit this headset better; I refuse to use the handset lifter, since that seems so old-school for a headset so technologically superior than any other wireless headset offering on the market. It's important to note that a headset band, three different sizes of over-the-ear-loops and about four ear pads are included with this package.
The only bad thing about it, I can't seem to get the sound amplified as I like it loud. I think it was too much loud music played from my iPod that blew out my hearing, so the sound level should be perfectly accommodating to other folks.
In short, you will not be disappointed by the Plantronics CS55.

I first purchased the Plantronics Bluetooth wireless headset, but had very poor luck with it. My office is loaded with electronics and evidently the bluetooth set couldn't handle it-very poor reception. This headset, on the contrary, gives crystal clear reception inthe same environment. I use it for depositions and phone conferences which have to be clear. The headset is comfortable and has a much further range of useability than the bluetooth version. I am very pleased with this set.

My assistant purchased this for her use, and she loves it! It allows her to move throughout the office area (to the copier/fax, etc) and between her office and mine w/o interruption. It also provides her the ability to type while on the phone w/o the discomfort of holding a receiver by tilting her head. She did say that the ear piece was a bit uncomfortable and took some time to get used to, but overall it has been an excellent purchase!

I was looking at a hands free headset for home use, when I purchased the CS 55. It was not clear that you needed a PSTN adaptor if you want to use it in a home environment. (with cordless phones).
I was able to find the right plantronics adaptor an it is working fine at home, I later discovered that there is a CS-55H Home edition, but for me it was more practical to purchase the adaptor than to ship back the CS 55 and pay for shipment again for the CS 55H.
my wife complaints that the range is not as wide as I thought, but I have not played with the adjustments yet.

We finally tried the Plantronics CS-55 Dect 6.0 Digital Wireless Office Headset and it is AWESOME! We were using Plantronics CS50 headsets and they just give off feeback and crackle.

The Plantronics CS-55 Dect 6.0 Digital Wireless Office Headset is really great, good sound quality, no feedback, no buzzing in your ear! And people can actually hear you!

We have 7 wireless headsets working in our office and 2 are the CS-55. Once the CS50 ones break (which will be soon) I will be replacing them all with the CS-55!

After ordering the CS55 but before receiving it, I read the negative review "Very cool but poor sound quality" and was concerned about what I was going to receive. No worries! Reading the instructions would resolve most of the reviewer's problem with the unit, moving the mouthpiece away from his/her face would take care of the rest!

My CEO has been raving about this headset I purchased for him. Its also made him more likely to return his calls! ;)

Have been using this headset 3 years and it works great. I use it all day, 5 days a week and sound quality is great and it has held up very well. It is a very good quality headset for use all day long. It is comfortable as well. Have had zero problems with this unit

Love this product. It's great to have the freedom without cords. It came with several options for wearing so I played around with all the possibiities. I put it on first thing in the morning and wear it all day. I hardly know I'm wearing it. Excellent product if you are tied to your phone. Gives you some freedom.

Our sales team uses these. I've been told that they are comfortable and work really well. At one point we had to send one in for repair, which the company took care of and even sent back to us free of charge. I recommend this product because the price is reasonable for what you are getting, and the customer service of the company that sells the product is top notch.
