2.0 out of 5 stars Hard to use, December 26, 2002

I really don't like this answering machine. Although technically it's done everything it says it would there is no digital number reading how many messages you have - you just have to count the number of times the tiny little green dot blinks. You also have to hit "save" during the middle of hearing your message. If you don't - that message is gone for good. It's also difficult to save just one message. The default setting is to save all of them. I'm going to look for something else.

2.0 out of 5 stars ONLY THING I LIKE IS THE LOOKS!, January 24, 2003

What's that axium...Looks good....??? This little work of art, is great looking. It's small. It's stainless & black. It's inexpensive....and so far...IT [STINKS]!! Not easy to use, the sound quality is poor, at best. You can't just delete msgs, yet those you want deleted can be left intact...and on and on. Too bad...THOUGHT I'd purchased a winner, instead I purchased a DOG!

1.0 out of 5 stars a very bad little machine, January 19, 2003

We tried two of these and neither worked correctly--kept cutting callers off, sometimes would erase the outgoing message, and outgoing message quality was poor. Could not get it to delete or save individual messages. So frustrating.
