Please save your money and buy a different phone. Bought this phone for pretty cheap at Wal-Mart - that should've told me something right there. I've had it less than 2 months and all the people I talk with say the reception is terrible on their end and they hear tons of static. I came home to 2 messages that were pure static - couldn't hear a word anyone was saying or even who was calling. I have the volume set all the way up on 8 and can barely hear anything. This is THE biggest piece of junk I've ever purchased.
Its just the reception that lets it down. its a good phone if you live in a single level dwelling. I wouldve expected more from a phone that is 5.8Ghz, but I guess you get what you pay for. Not a good reception further than 15 ft. No good if you have a 2-3 story house. I found the battery life good and the functions good and easy to use. Unfortunately for me, this one was cheap and it shows it.
Infact last month I bought a second unit just like the first one just to have when this one wares out, I wanted to be sure I could get a replacement. Finding a wall mount phone today is not easy. The Att never did work right and after only about two months it crapped out and went into the garbege. I bought this as a replacement for an ATT unit that cost me eighty some bucks. This Vtech was less than thirty bucks and was shipped for free. I now have three Vtech phones in my house and the other two I bought cost less than twenty dollars and they are all wireless. Great product and can't beat the price.
This also affects memory dial and causes that feature to be completely useless. So when a phone number has a "2" in it for example, you have to press the "2" button one to five times before it will actually register. I have had this phone for over a month now. For some reason, when you press a number button "0-9", it does not always register with the phone. The phone beeps, but if you listen into the handset, it never transmits the tone over the phone line.
The phone has a horrible battery that doesnt hold even a decent charge compared to other phones that i have owned in the past. It is not often that you will find a review from me on a product, as i have little time to write them, however, i felt as though it was my duty to inform you on how horrible this phone is, so you dont waste your money by purchasing it. The worst problem that this phone has is that it has trouble recognizing when a number has been pushed when dialing a number.
PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE OR ANY OTHER PHONE FROM VTECH. lets allow vtech to continue making toys, because quite frankly,this phone is pretty much a toy. While vtech claims that the phone operates with 5.8 ghz, the phone looses signal once i step five feet out of my door of my room.
This phone is by far the worst phone i have ever owned, and i will never purchase an electronic device from Vtech in my life. The answering machine is awful and forgets the time and date every day.
Also, sometimes the phone will stay off of the hook when you try to hang up. I purchased this phone from walmart believing that i was getting a good deal on a nice phone, and now i cannot wait to return this piece of crap.
