Telephones in every roomj

I purchased four of these phone to replace the 2.4 ghz phones I had. The 2.4 ghz interfered with my wireless laptop that had a 2.4 ghz wireless modem. Hey, Who knew it would be a problem! These phones are nice. They are a little too light and narrow for my liking. All of the remote charging bases are too light and tip over when you try to dock the phones. I finally put two sided tape on the bottom of the bases to hold them in place. The notification light on the front of the phone blinks continuously whether there is a voicemail or not. I have tried to reset the phones and that works until you have another voicemail and then you have to reset all the phones again. This is frustrating. I do like the intercom feature and you can pass a call from one handset to another.

Appears to have too much technology for me, but luckily, I had another set of easy phones with answering machine and two places to plug in phones in the wireless AT&T carrier box so set up all and have 7 phones throughout the house which are great and these new phones even tell you with a nice female voice what number is calling when you let it ring twice.  As far as the technology of doing everything with these phones, never could relate.

It is working great and I love the fact that there are 2 phones included.  I have an electric recliner and by the time the chair goes down I miss the call.  I would recommend this phone to everyone!

THIS PHONE IS PARTICULARLY HANDY BECAUSE ALL OF THE NUISANCE PHONE CALLS AND DESPICABLE SOLICITATION PHONE CALLS SHOW UP ON ITS CALLER I.D. SO YOU KNOW IMMEDIATELY THAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO PICK UP THE CALL.  IT IS ALSO VERY SIMPLE TO DELETE ALL OF THE "JUNK PHONE CALLS" IN JUST A FEW SECONDS!

The great thing about this system is the intercom feature. Each handset has an intercom button. You just press it, enter the handset you want to page (#1-4), and that phone will ring. You can use the intercom feature while someone is on the line to find them, or use it without any incoming calls. Replacement batteries are available for as low as $4.99. Phone also has different built-in ring tones, including one that sounds like the old Twilight Zone theme song. This is a nice product if you're tired of yelling upstairs, downstairs, etc. to call the kids to dinner!

The phone is easy to set up and use. I only wish I could have more than 6 phones connected to the phone system.

No home phone anymore.  Cheap cell phone plan with a Magic Jack.

These phones are TINY.  Anyone lugging around a "smart" phone will have no problem keeping this to their ear.

Unlike other reviews here, my experience is that the loudest setting is just about perfect for me.  I have mild hearing issues and it's still not a problem for me.  Wouldn't hear it above booming bass speakers, but it's a home phone.  Why are you letting somebody trash your place?

Perfect for the home.

This Package + Magic Jack = Cancel your home phone, and reduce your cell to a backup phone.

It was so weird. I started pushing the buttons on this phone & they all started talking to me, asking me my age & if was a swinger or a player, or a jammer-jiver. Hmmm..... I should've known this was a celebrity lovers phone when I saw Bob Hope saunter up & steal one at the local phone mart. Hmmm.....Which is quite a feat for a dead man, heh heh heh, dontcha thenk? Huh??  Anyway, about the phone: It's too expensive & the talking buttons are distracting. They emit a lot of 4-letter words. Heh heh heh... Kinda like a lot of uncouth loudmouths who've crossed my path. I see the anwering machine has numbers on it. Bit then so does my clock so that doesn't mean a dahmn, stinking thing!! YEAH!

I am extremely pleased with this phone system. I just moved into a 57 year old home, which had one functional phone jack.  This alternative allowed me to place stations on all floors of the home.  The talking Caller ID feature, while convenient, is difficult to understand since it speaks phonetically exactly as displayed.  I highly recommend this product.

An outstanding set of phones.  In addition to adjustable sound levels they have a speakerphone capability.  the sound comes  through clearly  and I just cannot imagine  a better performer.  And it is great to have so many phones spread about my  home.

I had vTech phones previously and loved them. When they finally broke I went to Panasonic...what a mistake. If you put a phone number in the memory in one phone you have to copy it to all the other handsets. Same way if you delete a number in one phone you have to delete it one by one in all others. Entering numbers was harder too.

The vTech phones let you enter numbers or delete numbers from any handset and the system automatically synchronizes all the handsets for you so all are the same all the time!!

I guess if you shared the system with teenagers they could have their own directories the other way but if you only need one directory the panasonics will drive you crazy!

This one is super easy to set up, sounds great and has all the features you could want.

Highly recommended....I will never switch again.

These new phones are great!!!  We had the same brand but they were getting old, this new style is even better, I really like the speaker phone!

too noisy... it is even worse when you have multiple in a room... the sound is distracting and can be heard over the phone line in meetings.

Love that there are so many handsets, but I wish it announced the callers, and After a couple of months, my main handset is buzzing. Would i recommend? Yes

This phone has all the features we want in a home phone, along with very clear sound and excellent reliability.  The feature we like best is the speaker phone on each handset, as it allows the two of us to talk to our children wherever we are in the house.  The phone also is stylish and easy to hold.  Highly recommend!

We used to have a single handset cordless phone, but somehow the handset never seemed to be in the same part of the house as we were whenever the phone rang.  Except for the obvious benefit of the aerobic exercise known as &#8220;the phone dash&#8221;, we decided to switch to a phone that offered more options, and we chose Panasonic because of the reliability of their equipment.

Now we have three handsets in convenient places, and we are never that far away from a phone when it rings.  The phones are easily identifiable for each location, and you can page from one to another.  This is very handy when you are upstairs, and need somebody downstairs to do something for you (like bring a glass of water for example.) You can also program each one with a different ring tone if you want to.

The bases and handsets are fairly small and don't take up too much space. They are also aesthetically pleasing for most decors, or easy to hide if they don't fit in.  There's Call Waiting and Caller ID, and an answering machine where you can record your own distinctive message.  You can check messages from any handset, and also play back old messages if you wanted to.  The only problem so far is that once you answer a call, the other two handsets record this as a missed call, so lesser used units rack up the missed calls at an alarming rate.

You can store numbers and do all sorts of other things once you've read the manual (which of course I haven't) but it's all menu driven and fairly idiot proof even if I say so myself.  The handset displays even tell you when they need charging, and when they're ready to go again, and light up so you don't have to fumble with buttons in the dark.

Add all this to the clarity of the sound, and you know that this is a winner all the way.
