1.0 out of 5 stars Walk Away, June 25, 2007

This review is from: Uniden DXAI5588-4 Cordless Telephone with Four Handsets, Digital Answering System and Caller Id (Office Product)

I was hoping this phone would be better than my 2.4GHZ Uniden.
The 2.4 has a range of about 125ft. I can keep the non-base headset in the shop at 100 ft and it works fine.
The 5588 starts hissing and popping at the back door -- one floor under the headset. I can't make it 1/3 the distance of the older model. BY the time I get to the shop the phone quits.
So instead of ditching my old 2.4, I've maxed out the recharge ability of both 2.4s. This is really irritating since the 2.4 kills my Wi-Fi connection and the 5.8 does not.
Time to buy another phone set and since I can't count on Uniden, it will be a Panasonic. Both Unidens go into the garabge (after recycling the batteries).

4.0 out of 5 stars Does the job & inexpensive, March 28, 2007

This review is from: Uniden DXAI5588-4 Cordless Telephone with Four Handsets, Digital Answering System and Caller Id (Office Product)

We have these land lines in several rooms and they have worked just fine over the last three or four years. I like the fact that you can add phones to the system. We had some other larger Uniden phones that work as the "main" phones and the compatibility is perfect. They even work pretty good away from the base set when you are outside in the backyard. The features like caller ID etc. is a bonus. I must admit the phone book feature has never been used but we could if needed. If I had one complaint it might be the size is too small. I think they wanted to have the cell phone size but it is not the same. For man size hands the keypad is a little small but you get used to it by using corners of your thumb. Otherwise everything works fine for these extra phones to have in other rooms. I'm not sure why one of the reviewers had so much static but there is no problem whatsoever here. The only time we have had static was in a bad storm but I believe that is normal. We bought them for the inexpensive price to have as extra phones and they do the job. If you want some supplemental phones these will do the job.

The telephones are light and handy, but the range is not very far. My office is on one side of the house, and when I try to use my phone on the other side you loose a clear signal. The phones do not have an antenna sticking out of the phones (my old wireless phones did and they had great reception -- just couldn't get the handsets anymore they were so old).
