works well but with a few flaws
I picked this phone because it was top-rated by Consumer Reports. The sound quality is very good and free of interference, as would be expected of a DECT 6.0 phone. In addition, the range seems considerably greater than my previous cordless phone. The buttons are easy to use, and the phone/base are compact. There are a few drawbacks to this unit. It is wall-mountable, but the back contains a bracket that tends to slide off during the mounting process. Moreover, the holes don't quite align with the standard pegs for mounting, so the base is a little precarious when mounted. A second problem is that there is no speed dialing. It does have a directory that one can load numbers into, but retrieving a number requires several steps. A third, minor irritant is that the volume of the paging tone is set to the level of the ringer. Thus, if you have the ringer set fairly low, and you need to chase down the handset, you may not be able to hear when paged. Finally, this unit is not expandable, so that you can't purchase additional handsets separately to add to the system. Despite these shortcomings, it is a good basic unit.

Cordless phone
The phone came in before the time it was promised. The phone was new. The volume does work but is not precise besides that is is a good product.

Easy to Use, Audio not so good
This phone would be great if it wasn't so hard to hear the person on the other side. On 9 out of 10 calls, I have to ask the other person to speak louder because the audio is so quiet on my side.
Other than that, the phone works great. It was easy to set up the phone book and operate the phone. The reception range is good.

Great compact phone
I have only had this phone for a couple of weeks. It is compact, has a good speaker and does what a phone is supposed to do.

The jury is still out
The jury is still out on this phone. I like its appearance and works very well most of the time but often, during a call, it gets very staticy and at other times, voices fade in and out. This occurs even when standing next to the base as well as farther away. I have never bought this brand before and only bought it after researching Consumer Reports. It was highly recommended. I can't do the same.
