AT&T - CLP99587 Connect to Cell DECT 6.0 Expandable Cordless Phone System with Digital Answering System and Smart Call Blocker - Metallic Blue

I purchased this item for my parents who are in their 80's. With this system they can answer their home phone number as well as both of their cellphones from any handset. When they are at home, one device covers three phone numbers. When they go to bed, again one handset covers all three numbers. Also, my mother can receive or make a call on one handset using one of the three numbers, while at the same time my father can receive or make a call on another handset using one of the other numbers. If two handsets are being used with the two cell phones, One of the remaining handsets could be used at the same time to receive or make a call on the home telephone number. Perfect system for them that works perfectly.

This Cordless Phone System is excellent at screening out spam calls and has the added convenience of allowing two cell phones to connect via Bluetooth and be answered thought the system as well. The downside of this phone is the time consuming and somewhat confusing set-up. You have to navigate through a relatively complex menu system that is not well explained in the manual and the button layout is confusing at first. If you get through the learning curve it will screen out unwanted calls. The sound both in the receivers and answering machine are clear and adjustable. And the hand receivers have good range. If the learning curve was less steep I would have given this phone 5 stars.

I received a product that was repackaged, individual components were rewrapped. That is always so disappointing! I kept the product because I needed a phone with those capabilities and I had a difficult time finding it. The audio could be improved, even with the volume at maximum you need to listen closely to the caller. The number buttons don't always press easily, they could be more firm. The phone is acceptable for me, but I'm not sure if I could recommend it. the Smart Blocker seems to work well. This is the feature that I wanted.

I had the same AT&T phones for 25 years then decided to upgrade to this newer model. I am finding it more complicated to use and it will take some getting used to. However, it's auto blocking feature is a great invention and takes most robocalls out of the game for the most part. Some still get through but the vast majority are blocked. You can hear well on it and silence the ringers in the bedroom area to something that is bearable. All in all a good buy that works well.

All I can say is wow amazing!!! I give it 5 stars because the main reason I bought this phone is because of the smart filter that scans for Robo and Telemarketers which amazingly enough has worked so far 100% of the time. I've had this AT&T house phone less than a week but it's amazing . The base station was super easy to set up and comes with a quick start guide to get you through the basics. We had an older AT&T system and just looked at upgrading. This phone not only has the best call blocking that I have found, it also hooks up to my Samsung Phone and iphones with ease. It even tells me when someone calls on my cell and announces the name for me to see if I want to pick it up. So if you like not answering robo calls about college loans, crusies or 50% off your ATT/DirectTV accounts... this is a system to consider.

I needed replacement cordless phone set with the possibility of additional expansion sets. These filled the bill quite well. I haven't tried many of the additional features as they weren't needed at this time. Setting up the time and handsets was easy as long as the directions were followed (the batteries are supposed to go in a certain way). Thanks to the advice on this website, I was able to purchase additional handsets, and the convenience of always having a phone within easy reach can't be beat. I would have liked to have had a headphone jack and a belt clip, but the affordability and expansion ability were a good trade off.

It has good sound and volume that I can hear well. I spent too much time blasting The Stones and Chubby Checker back in the day. It was pretty easy to set up the phone directory, and I'm 79. I love being able to set max rings, where I actually have time to get to the phone. I love that it is so easy to block numbers. The phone fits well in my hand and is comfortable. The phone locator seems to work better than my old phone system. BEST BUY got the phone in a bit quicker than we expected. CONS: With 5 phones, I still lose a handset. How to shortcut the directory by punching in the first 3 letters seems too complicated. The space for names in the directory needs 2 more spaces--

If you are looking for a phone that prevents robo and scam calls look no further. This system allows you to enter contacts which can dial thru or require callers to identify themselves when calling. We used to get a dozen Rino calls a day now we get none. We also used to get several calls a day for a local pharmacy that had a similar number now we get none. The sound quality isn’t as good as our last set but it’s good enough. But I was in the verge of cancelling our home phones before getting this cordless system due to all of the robo calls we got in a day (these calls still show up in your missed call log but do not ring thru).
