 BEWARE - NEEDS ELECTRICAL OUTLET March 21, 2007

This is a fine phone. Unfortunately, none of the descriptions indicate that for the caller ID and speakerphone to work, you have to plug in an included electrical adapter to a nearby electrical outlet. (Only the very first Amazon comment mentioned an adapter). That's why it "needs no batteries". This also means that if the power is out, while the phone will work, the caller ID and and speakerphone will not. (Yes, logic should have told me that no batteries = electrical adapter, but I shouldn't have to resort to logic to "know" the basic features/requirements of the phone)
If that's not a problem for you, then it gets 5 stars. Because the manufacturer (nor Amazon) not only did not state this, but rather by its wording and emphasis on "no batteries" appears to me to be intentionally misleading us, it gets only 3 stars.
 Perfect Desk Phone April 25, 2006

This one has everything. Super large LIGHTED caller ID, volume control for handset, power adapter for the caller id, many many extras. Im usually sucked in by the 10.00 phones and they always end up in the garbage. I thought I would try this one. I almost didnt because of the 29.00 price but it is well worth it. This is not a cheap phone. Its even angled perfect for the desk. The speakerphone sounds great as well. I love it and will probably buy another for the other desk in the house.
 One serious flaw June 13, 2007

I bought this phone for my elderly mother and it has many great features for her: easy to read large buttons, large caller id screen, easy volume controls. It should be the perfect phone for a person with sight limitations except that it has a very serious flaw that makes me recommend against buying it.
The hand set does not sit firmly in the base, making it very easy to hang up the phone and actually leave it off the hook. This has been a potential safety hazard for my mother and she had to stop using this phone to avoid going without phone service by not realizing that the phone was disconnected.

This is a rotten product in my opinion. I bought it particularly for the speakerphone feature, but I was very disappointed. It's not a duplex. It's a push to talk feature. The system trys to determine when you are finished talking, then switches to the other party so he can talk. But that often cuts you off before you finish speaking. Very poor device. I recommend you pay more money to get a duplex (2-way) speakerphone.
OK except..... June 1, 2006

I like the phone except for one REALLY BAD problem. The handset does not fit properly on the phone, it is too easy to incorrectly place the phone on hook (you think it is on hook, but it isn't). I have had the phone a couple of months, and this problem has rendered my phone line dead (no dial tone) about 10 times now. When my other phones don't work, I have to go put the handset of this phone back on properly. Never had this problem with any other phone.
