1 out of 5 stars Buttons only last 7 months   May 15, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I purchased this unit in September. The number 3 button has to be pressed so hard in order to dial! I have had this same problem with other brands of cordless phones. My sister also has had this problem. Sometimes its the talk button, or one of the number buttons. I have contacted the board of directors at GE in Fairfield CT regarding this.


3 out of 5 stars Handset disconnects   September 8, 2003

I love GE phones because I find them easy to use. The answering machine on this phone worked great. However I couldn't get the handset to work. I charged the battery for at least 24 hours. From about day two I could not place outgoing calls. After I dialed I would hear the ring tone as if it were calling out, and then it would disconnect (presumably when the other person picked up the phone). Then after about a week, I couldn't answer incoming calls either because the phone would disconnect. Very frustrating.


2 out of 5 stars Problems w/ Buttons   August 25, 2004

When I first brought this phone home it was wonderful. It was very compact and it had the caller ID and answering machine. After about 8 months I noticed that ALL of the numbers on the headset were VERY hard to push. After having the phone a little over a year I have noticed that it looses its charge very quickly. I would only recommend this phone if you need it for something to "hold you over".

It was a pretty good phone for awhile. I think ive had it for a lil less then 6 months and already the bottons on it are HORRIBLE! i cant even hang up the phone let alone dial one number! Overall it was ok. No static. And the answering machine was fine. Just those bottoms!


2 out of 5 stars Piece of junk   December 6, 2004

The sound quality is usually OK, but at random intervals I get sudden, loud static that drowns out the conversation. I'd think it was interference except my other 900MHz phone (a Panasonic) isn't affected.

The ringer is so incredibly awful that I turned it off and plugged my old corded phone in just so I wouldn't have to listen to it anymore. The ringer is extremely loud and cannot be adjusted.

Caller ID is bizarre, becasue the order of calls on the phone is completely different than the order of incoming calls. Plus the time-stamps are always wrong, both on caller ID and on answering machine messages.

The call-back feature for caller ID simply doesn't work for long-distance numbers-- because the phone will not dial "1" before dialing.

This phone stinks. I'm sorry I got it and I'll be replacing it soon.



We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
