1.0 out of 5 stars Ditto on the don't buy, October 19, 2005
I had the exact same problem as the other reviewer with 2 of these phones:

"After plugging in the unit, completing the setup and recording a greeting, I called in from my cell phone. The unit answered after 4 rings but then failed to play the greeting or record a message. In addition, the clock got erased and went back to flashing 12:00 AM."

When I exchanged the first one for a second one and it had the same error. I can only assume that they had a bad batch and no quality control. I've missed a number of calls and made multiple trips to Office Depot as a result.

1.0 out of 5 stars Horrible, August 9, 2006
By S. Bates (Hickory, NC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Our old phone/answering machine stopped working, so I went out to purchase a new one. This one seemed to be a great deal. I brought it home and the answering machine did not work at all. Like other reviewers, I thought perhaps I had picked up a bad one. I went back and purchased another one. Now here I sit, staring at the second malfunctioning one, wondering why I didn't check out the reviews first. Don't even think about buying this phone.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT buy this phone!!, February 7, 2006
I was looking for a nice corded phone for my office with a answering machine and caller ID. I purchased this phone and it worked for only three days. The answering machine decided to stop working after three days and it took me a few angry clinets and some loss of business to figure it out two days later. Thinking I must have picked the bad apple, I went and bought another one (shame on me), right out of the box I set it up and tested the answering machine, nothing, it just hangs up on you. Not good for business. I think GE needs to have a re-call on these phones. all I can say is DON"T BUY THIS PHONE!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Inexpensive and works well
It is excellent for what it claims to be. It was inexpensive and works perfectly. It is flimsy though, light weight plastic and the ear phone piece comes off easily accidentally.
