Panasonic Dect 6.0 Series Cordless Phone System with Answering System Accessory Handset (KX-TGA101S) Reviews
That is where I will look FIRST next time. When a handset goes missing from an, otherwise, perfectly good (actually great)phone system and you go to the store where you purchased it to get a replacement, it is pretty frustrating when you see that you would have to buy a whole new phone system because they don't carry your "old" model anymore. I was delighted to find it on Amazon.
The answer audio leaves a little to be desired, thus the 4 stars. I originally bought the two pieces but needed the three. Works well. Good System.
The item was misleading on the web site.I thought it was a complete unit, but when received found out it was an auxiliary until and I required a mother base.I sent the unit back sent bought the right unit locally.
I would definitely recommend it. I use the intercom feature and speakerphone often. I just got the third handset for an outbuilding and so far it works well, no problems at all, just plug it in. It has good sound and good range. I have had this phone for over a year with 2 handsets.
Other nice features include: easy retrievel of answering machine messages from the handset, a programable alarm clock, a built-in phonebook, caller ID, and a memory that stores your last 50 calls. These handsets are small and easily misplaced or buried under a cushion or papers. You can flick it on, whenever you're placed on hold, listening to muzak, waiting for your call to go through. A small point, I'll concede, but it cost them one star in my rating.
The handset locator is your best friend. The only reason it didn't get a 5 star rating is the lack of a battery back-up on the base unit to keep the phones working during a power outage. You may need to experiment to get the best range out of this phone. Again, proper base unit placement is essential.
If you experience call dropssudden cutoffs in the middle of a call, you're probably too far from the base unit. I do recommend this phone. However, I live in a concrete building with multiple floorsso I don't expect much from any cordless phone. But if you're prone to leaving your phone off the recharger for days and then having lengthy conversations, you'll want to upgrade to high capacity rechargeable AAAs @ 700 to 1000+ mAh. So, they do have the technology but they chose not to employ it in this model. Most people will never know you're on a speakerphone if the handset is placed on a desktop in front of you. The punch keys are large and easily read. I can tell you the clarity is excellent, if you don't have too many walls or appliances between you and the base unit.
Helpful if you forget to jot down an important phone number. Even so, you should recharge the units nightly with moderate use. There it is in a nutshell; this phone does the job if you don't expect too much from it: like stand too close to multiple active appliances or talk under high tension electricity lines across the street. You can adjust the contrast on the screen to suit. One of my handsets was stolen off of my porch one evening, so I needed a replacement. So, don't say I didn't warn you. The factory originals are just adequate at 550 mAh.
They will last all day with moderate to heavy use. There are nice features included: the speaker phone option on the handset is topnotch. And at one bar, you should make your calls short and sweet or reach for the other handsetwhich should be on the recharger ready to go. If you have a 3 floor house, the base unit should be on the second floor. When you do hear the low battery beep, you only have a couple of minutes left, at best. Unobstructed, the range is quite good, about 200+ feet.
Panasonic used to build cordless phones with that very feature. If you have concrete walls or the base unit is parked two floors upstairs, this may happen more frequently. Just remember, this is only a cordless phone, not a walkie talkie.
All in all, the phone does what I expect it to do. I like the fact that regular rechargeable AAA batteries can be used. The battery indicator does not kid you at all: it's 3 bars when you're topped off.
So too, the view screen is very readable. I've owned the Panasonic Dect 6.0 expandable cordless phone system for about 8 months now. The one criticism is the quirky nature of occassional dropped calls.
