Amazon.com Product Description

Life is too busy to bother with unwanted, nuisance telephone calls. With the Southwestern Bell/Conair FM147, you'll enjoy support for caller ID with call waiting service from your telephone service provider, helping you simplify and take control of your telephone life. Identify up to 64 callers with programmable name and number memory on a three-line LCD display before answering the phone or returning calls. Then you can decide whether to interrupt your work to answer any incoming call, be it identified or unidentified.

It's easy to return missed telephone calls with the Southwestern Bell/Conair FM147, thanks to redial and call back features. The three-line LCD displays the name and number of the caller, the date and time of the call, and indicates private or out-of-area calls, plus how many messages you have collected. Extra features include a low battery indicator, review and erase functions, full memory display, contrast control, and your choice of three languages (English, Spanish, or French), plus a one-year limited warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars for the price it is excellent!, August 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Southwestern FM147 64 Memory Caller ID (White) (Office Product)

This is an excellent product for the home office. I have bought other caller id machines at this price but they were difficult to read and did not have the features that this machine has. I exceptionally like the feature that allows you to redail the a callers number at the push of a button. If all you need is an extra caller id for the home office or another room this is the one to get.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny., October 9, 1999

After using the unit that was provided by the phone company when you sign up for the service I must say I should have purchased this from the beginning. The display lights up and a flashing red light alerts you to a new call or call waiting. Make sure you have 4 AAA batteries.

2.0 out of 5 stars Unreliable, February 1, 2000

It "forgets" it has a call waiting function every so often...I have to power it down and reset it every couple of weeks...disappointing. That's why I'm on this site, searching for a replacement.
