    GE Corded Slimline 29267GE3 Phone with Call Waiting Caller ID - White Reviews

    I returned it because I can't see the caller ID. However, the call ID display was very dim, can't see it in the dark or not well lited area. I need to find a phone with better/brighter caller ID display. All reviews have mentioned you can't change the cord on the phone. I brought it at Walmart. It is a nice soldid phone.

     

    A backlit caller-id window would have been nice, but not crucial to my needs, since I mostly call out from the phone and usually answer it during daylight hours. I like the black & silver color combo and it matches my RCA clock radio. The 3-4 foot (stretched) cable is perfect for my situation as a bedside phone. I already knew what it didn't do and that is was battery a hog. As for the 4 AA batteries it requires, I bought some Energizer NiMH rechargeables and will swap them when needed well worth the $12 investment. The sound in & out (I spoke with my HOH mother without any complaint from her) are both good with 3 volume adjustments & the ringer has high, low & off. By now, you've probably read all of the negative reviews and so had I when I picked this phone up locally, on sale for a sawbuck. The display on the caller-id improved when I cranked up the contrast in the settings.

     

    I have MagicJack and this phone works great with it. The date and time automatically sets when you receive your first call. GE doesn't make these phones. There aren't any screws to open this thing up to fix anything, everything is in a plastic mold. They are made by Thomson, a company notorious for making junk for RCA The bad part is once one of the 2 cords goes bad, the phone has to be trashed. The Caller ID will display the number, date, and time.

     

    I'm returning the one I still can return. That's not acceptable, and it makes for a very expensive phone in the long run. I was quite satisfied with this, even though the cords are non-replaceable and the display is not lighted, until I discovered that the batteries (4xAA) even alkalines only last a couple of months and when they die, the phone goes dead too.

     

    In my entire life I cannot recall a single consumer product that I felt was more of a waste of money than this. This is a classic example of General Electric's vaunted six sigma philosophy. -No clue in the instructions how to set the date and clock. -I bought this in Argentina, where I am currently living, but the caller ID appears to have been set up to only work in the U.S. -It practically falls out of the cradle if you so much as look at it.

    -A mentioned by others, the cord situation is a disaster. -It has 10 number memory dialing, but you can only enter the number, not the name that goes with it. -The battery case does not stay open. When I buy from GE from now on, I'll stick to light bulbs. It is clearly a six sigma product.six sigmas in bad design:.

    Good luck which memory location you stored the number in. You want to call your good friend Taylor.
