Awesome landline phone system with features you never knew you needed until you have them!
I love this phone, wow such amazing features, most I didn't realize I was missing until I bought this system. I honestly didn't need 5 phones, but for the extra $10 figured I would keep one as a spare, since spare phones cost way more than $10. For the price of the phone, it was indeed a value. I wanted a phone system with long range capability and this was the only phone offered through Amazon with this feature. I tried to talk myself out of it and literally spent 3 days looking at phones, features, reviews and price, before I chose this phone. It honestly shouldn't have been a question of buying it, but if I have learned nothing from my employer, it's to do your due diligence when making a significant purchase. To be honest, I am loving the call screening!! The amount of phone calls coming into my house phone has been reduced by at least 80-90%, and that is no exaggeration. Also, once you have received a call and added them to your approved list, they never have to leave their name again, it just rings them right through. But, don't make the mistake I did when I first started, I was immediately pressing "1", and this only allows that one call, not any future calls, you must press "2", to approve that caller indefinitely. I was being too quick with my selection and didn't finish listening to the options, and only found my mistake when I couldn't quickly press "1" and heard option "2" was the option I really wanted. Another feature I didn't know I needed, was importing my cell phone address book directly into the phone!! Wow what a time saver, unfortunately it doesn't sync with the screening, but that is just a minor detail. Being able to answer my cell phone through the phone was another added surprise as well, and you can even add a second cell phone!! WOW, mind blown. The phones also came with a belt clip which was yet another feature that doesn't come standard with many or any other phones that I researched. This was yet another feature I didn't know I was missing out on, but I am loving that each phone has a belt clip. A reason I was wanting a long range phone is that my house was built in the 1950's, when houses were actually built solid, almost a little too solid, lol. It is very hard to get reception in my bedroom, which is the furthest from the base unit, but with this phone I can hear and be heard even out in my front yard on the parkway!! Thank you Vtech for making this awesome phone. Living in a stucco house is like living in a faraday cage when it comes to cell phones or wireless anything, well in my house anyway, it had become so frustrating with my old phone that I was beyond done, but this phone is AMAZING!! I am sure I sound like a cuckoo when it comes to the amazing features offered on this phone, and my old phone was maybe 5-7 years old, at most, but Bluetooth, call screening, cell phone address book access, etc. wasn't something offered back then and if it was I guess I didn't want to pay the extra for it. I am not the most tech savvy person by any means, but this phone is so easy to use it made me feel like a rock star. So, if you have read this far through my review, what are you waiting for? Buy this phone and prepare to be blown away!! I was not paid to write this review, I paid about $160-190 for this system and it is worth every penny and more.
