Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Needed a basic corded phone to connect to my cable VoIP line. It was going to be pretty much a placeholder for the most part since I only use that line as a backup service in case my regular landline phone is down. But I also wanted something more than a $9 Trimline so that if necessary, it could be used in my home office should my desk phone there call it quits. I had purchased the CL2940 for my parents last Christmas to replace a similar unit they had for 11 years, and trhey have had no problems with it. So I picked up one for myself and it fits the bill nicely. The big buttons and large screen are easy to see and use, I like that I can turn the ringer completely off but it will still flash a light when "ringing", and it's a nice sturdy size and weight that won't easily fall off a table if the line is tugged. The speakerphone is as clear as the handset unless there's a lot of background noise. All in all, this is a competent corded phone with nice features and good value.
