The volume does not down
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The volume does not go all the way down. Turn it down, and when it receives a call, the volume automatically turns up. How can a person sleep when the volume goes up?

Disappointed after great expectations
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was disappointed with this answering machine. I had read a few dozen reviews which stated it was a great value but the sound quality from both my recorded outgoing message and the recorded incoming calls was awful, and it's no exaggeration to say I couldn't understand a word of either when I played-back. It was so bad that the outgoing message sounded like I recorded it with my head in an empty 5-gallon bucket. Not what I was looking for at all. The good news is that BB took it back and refunded my money on the spot, no questions asked. As it should be.

Not as good as earlier model.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Good: Smaller foot print than older model. The bad: Poor speaker quality making it hard to understand messages. Can't see from a distance if you have messages because blinking light is inset into case. Would have been better if red on/off button also blinked so you could see it from across the room. Had to put felt pads on feet because rubber used marred our soapstone counter. Disappointed.

Weak features
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to announce business changes due to Covid-19. No way to just play an announcement. It MUST take a message, assuming there's enough space. It there isn't it just quits answering. The "messages" it recorded were all hangups, but when it reaches a certain number it just quits. You have to play EVERY SINGLE MESSAGE before it can be erased. No "erase all messages" function. Stupid design.

Third time charm? Two failures in a year
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Two of these have stopped working. They have been on protected power. Attempts to reset to factory don’t help. Power seems to on but no response to any input. 3 strikes and you’re out.
