Great little device

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I ordered the AT&T 1740 Digital Answering Machine to replace the Model 1710 that I had used for many, many years. I think the old one was fried by a power surge or something and died. I find the 1740 to be a reliable machine, clear sound, and gives date and time whereas my old one didn’t. It also doesn’t leave a blank space when robocalls come in, that I later have to delete.

fantastic product

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5I bought this to replace my parents previous AT&T answering machine which finally broke after many years of quality service. This one is smaller than the previous one they had, taking up less counter space and they were able to learn how to use it quickly. In fact I bought one for myself whenever my answering machine breaks. Great product.

No more robo calls
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Finally had enough of the harassing calls and robo calls. They can talk to the machine. The number of calls has been cut in half after just 3 weeks. Phone only rings 3 or 4 times a day instead of 8 or more times. Hopefully in time I will only get legitamate calls for me. So far they just hang up.
