5.0 out of 5 stars Love it like my ipod., December 15, 2006

This review is from: Uniden DECT1080 DECT6.0 Expandable Cordless Phone with Digital Answering System and Call Waiting/Caller Id (Office Product)

Uniden got the electronics and features nearly perfect on the prior models. Then this model also perfects the ergonomics in the same way Apple did with the ipod and computer. The phone not only functions excellently, it feels good in your hand and against your ear. The buttons have the reassuring feedback similar to an HP calculator. My wife is very picky and finally agrees with her husband (rare indeed) that his phone sounds, looks, feels and works great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Records a message every time someone hangs up, July 9, 2007

This review is from: Uniden DECT1080 DECT6.0 Expandable Cordless Phone with Digital Answering System and Call Waiting/Caller Id (Office Product)

I liked a lot of things about this phone, but I returned it for one reason: we get a lot of marketing calls so we screen all of our phone calls. This machine records a message every time someone calls, regardless of whether or not they leave a message. When I get home, I don't want to see my machine flashing 18 messages and when I check only three of them have actual voices and the rest of them are just dead air. That's really an inconvenience for me and a waste of my time. So, the phone had to go back ... even though I liked everything else about it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Answering machine with useful beep, October 22, 2007

One feature, essential to me, has not been mentioned by other reviewers. Uniden seems to be the only phone manufacturer that provides an audible beep to alert the user to waiting messages. I seem to be incapable of noticing a blinking light or other visual message waiting alert, so I stick to Uniden. The only way a buyer can find out about this feature is to download and read the owner's manual at the Uniden site. It is not called out in the printing on the box or any other prominent place.

This base unit, with extra handsetsUniden DCX 100 Accessory Handset and Charger for DCT756, DCT758-2, DCT7585-2, DCT76565-2, makes a very good household system, and the base unit is smaller than many and takes up very little space.
