AT&T - CLP99387 Connect to Cell DECT 6.0 Expandable Cordless Phone System with Digital Answering System and Smart Call Blocker - Metallic Blue

Phone has good features. The two I liked were that in a power outage, the base unit will use a handset for power. The second feature that interested my was call screening. You can enter a list of phone numbers and set the phone so that for any caller not on the list, the phone will request them to press # before ringing through. This will screen out robo calls. Unfortunately, you need to subscribe to a caller id service for this to work. There should be a setting where the phone screens ALL calls, no matter who it is. This would not require subscribing to caller id. But they did not set the phone up this way. This a a draw back Phone range is good, speaker quality is fair, recorded message quality is so so.

This phone, out of the box, immediately blocks spam callers with the only setup being plugging in the phone to an outlet for power. If paired with bluetooth to a cellphone, it will also block spam callers calling the cellphone. Bluetooth pairing is a great feature as this allows one to not miss a call by being in another room and not hearing the cellphone as it will ring on all the handsets scattered throughout the home. This product has allowed me to cut the cord to my landline, while still having the ease of answering my phone in any room.

Great device for stopping all robo calls, telemarketers, charity/political calls, and scammers. Best on market. Can say same for customer service at Summerville Best Buy store. Management at headquarters has cut staffing so far there is almost no one to help. I have to ask 2 or 3 times before I get help. This is how all big box stores go out of business. Not customer oriented at all. Not just this store either.

I purchased this for my home office and couldn't be happier. The reception is clear, unlike my previous unit. The 2 extensions don't require a phone outlet, just AC to recharge, and are crystal clear. The best part of this phone is that it screens out telemarketing calls. I no longer get those annoying calls from predictive dialer's because this system makes them announce themselves before putting the call through---brilliant. Worth every penny I spent.

We just bought this set of phones to replace our old Panasonic model. The whitelist / call block feature was the key benefit that sealed the deal, but we haven't actually tried it yet. The flash button works correctly to switch over to a call-waiting incoming call, so that's already a step above the old phones. Not that thrilled with the feel of the buttons, but I'm sure we'll get used to it. We plan to buy an extra handset since the only options in store were 3 or 5, and we really want 4.

So I got this for her...nice looking, 3 phones which connect to a home base. A little complicated to set up and to use...but luckily she has a good son to help her!!! It does a lot she did not need...answering system (I think most elderly folks know how to use system on their home line now), Bluetooth connection to cell phone (kind of an annoying feature anyway),etc.

The phone, with three handsets and built-in answering machine was a good deal. It was simple enough to set up and is simple to use. However, adjusting the sound volume requires you to do it during an active call and retrieving messages or going though the menus is difficult for people with motor difficulties. Otherwise, for the modern person used to today's devices, the phone is a good product for a good price.

Caller ID seems flakey with the Smart Call blocker. When friends call my cell phone which is synced to this phone, the ID is not recognized as an "ok" caller and they get blocked. Also doesn't seem to recognize other phones in the house. If I pick up a different phone, this one will continue with the message greeting and then hang up.
