Lousy phone
This phone had lousy reception and no range. If I got more then a dozen yards away from the base the static was overwhelming.

some nice features, one fatal flaw
We bought this phone because we wanted to be able to disable the ringers on our phones but still receive calls. We're able to do that with this system, so thats cool. But its fundamentally flawed since you can use one handset at a time with the base station. We like to be able to talk to family members with both of us cordless, and you can't do that with this set.
