    I do not like this phone. The old VTech was great to review; this one is difficult to review and delete messages. It is too flimsy.

    Unit does not disconnect totally even when pressing end button and line still shows in use. Not worth the money.

    I've had this for just over a year and it has been disappointing. The base unit won't play any recorded messages, they can only be heard through the handset. And now the recorded messages are so clipped and muffled that they are unintelligible. A complete waste of time and money.

    We tried it for a couple of weeks and it had so much static on the line that we went back to our old phone which works better. Hope to return it.

    Got this and the volume on the speaker phone is so poor that even with that on (with full volume) I keep asking "WHAT?" and I am a 32 year old with good hearing! This phone is NOT worth the time and energy! Need to buy a new one... AGAIN!

    not easy to use.... can't figure out which buttons do what, and are labeled confusingly. Takes me 5 or 6 tries to get to the messages, and even then I don't know what worked to get there. There must be an easier one to use????

    I had this phone system for 2 months before I started having issues. Would not recommend. The price was on the high end and I would have returned it with my replacement plan if my daughters bunny had not eaten the cords before I was able to return it.

    The many features of this phone are only accessible through hours of reading, trying to interpret, and programming many times to set it up to use. It is VERY, VERY difficult to use because of this. I would not recommend it for anyone over 30 years old who has not had numerous classes and/or much experience in setting up technology.
