Decent, points: Volume and buttons...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Works well. Only complaints are that even the lowest volume setting is very loud and the main numeral buttons are hard to press because of their shape. They slant upwards so that you often press the wrong button, but this can be gotten use too. The volume can be solved IF you are willing to plug in an external or wireless headset that has its own separate volume control

Q: QuestionWe only have 1 phone line, however, I would like people to be able to leave msgs into 3 different mailboxes based upon the nature of their call. Does this phone system have that capability or do you make a model that does?
Asked by FTC.
- A:Answer Hi - The VTech CM18445 does not have multiple mailboxes. Instead, you can get additional expansion units and use the auto-attendant feature of the system. The said feature will enable callers to choose a specific extension that they would like to reach. Each system extension also has its own mailbox for callers to be able to leave a message. Thank you, -VTech Support

Q: QuestionI have this phone at my shop. I would like to know if it is possible to transfer the calls, from line 1, to my home phone when i am not there? If this is possible how do i do it?
Asked by FloralDesign2019.
- A:Answer Hi - The VTech CM18445 does not have the call forwarding feature. This is a service subscribed from the telephone company. We recommend that you contact your local service provider and ask if the feature is available. Thank you! -VTech Support

Q: QuestionI have 4 telephone numbers that are through AT & T U-Verse (ie digital) can I use this phone with that service?
Asked by Debbie.
- A:Answer I do not like these phone that I bought I have bought 4 of them. When you are using Line 1 and someone call you on Line 2 and you put them both on hold it will cut you off on the call and you will have to call the customer back for some reason. This is not a good product when I transfer line over to answer service for Line 3 and Line 4 it will not switch over it will be Line 1 and Line 2 had to purchase some more phones.

Q: QuestionI bought 3 of CM18445 - with the idea of buying a 4th, 4 different phone numbers. Currently it wont assign an extension, is it okay to have all the same models? or do I need to buy just one CM18445 as the main phone and a different model for the 3 ?
Asked by baastan.
- A:Answer Hello. The VTech CM18445 will not work with other CM18445 phones. You do need just one CM18445 as the main phone, and use model CM18245 or CM18045 for the other three phones. Thank you for your interest!

Q: QuestionMy multi-function printer is a Brother MFC-J6945DW. I want to connect the printer to the CM18445. How do I do it?
Asked by osage4207.
- A:Answer Hi- The VTech CM18445 does not have a port on the telephone base to connect a fax/printer machine. You can connect the units on different jacks or use a splitter to connect both devices to the telephone line. However, the VTech phone does not have the capability to determine if the incoming call is a fax or a regular call. We recommend to set your fax machine to Fax auto detect. Ideally, the number of rings for the fax machine should be set to a lower value than the number of rings for the answering system with the fax auto detect option active. This way, all types of calls regardless if it is a regular phone call or a fax call will be screened first before being directed to the correct path. For more information, please call your fax manufacturer. Thank you! - VTech Support

Q: QuestionIs the VTech CM18445 compatible with Comcast phone lines?
Asked by Dana.
- A:Answer Yes. We have Comcast Business and these phones work well. After setup we had to call Comcast to set the lines to roll over but otherwise everything worked right out of the box.
