| Our old phone system was giving up the ghost so I looked for a phone system that would get good reception throughout our house and not interfere with other wireless set ups. I have had no problems with the wireless internet and the phone system to date. I even get reception at the bottom of my 3 story house. I ordered the extra handset and now there is a better chance that you will find a reciever on the house level your on when the phone rings too. I can even walk anywhere on my 1/2 acre and get reception. |
Easy, convenient, big buttons, overall GREAT!!

First, let me express my joy:
I have owned many cordless phones since they first came out. Remember the first Panasonics that had that three foot long antenna that probably put out more than a few eyes of unsuspecting folks that stood too close? Yeah. Had that one. Then they came out with a newer one that had a retractable antenna like the big long one but was a short, fat one that clicked two or three times to retract and extract (didn't make much difference in call reception but was way cooler looking than that other one that should have reached Liberia in reception with that 3 foot long metal radio antenna)... Then came the "antenna-less" phone. Lousy reception on most of them, but when the 900 MhZ one hit the market (bring on the angelic choir here) Hallelujah! Hallelujah! a person could be a half a city block away and still talk--and hear the other person (albeit with some static). I hated the 5.1 GhZ models--to me they were a big step down. Staticky, even at close range, echoey, you name it. Went back to the 900 MhZ model. BUT I recently read about the DECT technology. We live on a 20 acre farm, and I need to keep a phone with me at all times because my husband and I take care of his dad who is in late stage Alzheimer's disease...if one of us goes for a walk, it's imperative that we be in contact somehow. Until now, we've used cell phones, which gets stupidly expensive. BUT again now, the angels are singing because no matter how far I've gotten on our property (at this point probably only about a hundred yards or so), this phone, being lightweight, antenna-less and with really COOL ringtones, I might add, still rings and the voice is clear!
Now let me tell you about the non-need for multiple phone programming:
I thought I'd have to enter all my phonebook numbers in EACH handset. NOT SO! If you enter it in one, it's in them all. Yay!! What a BOON! You can have each phone use its own ring tone (they don't have to all be the same) you can turn one (or two, three, four, or all) the ringers off, you can turn off the really cool voice telling you audibly who is calling, etc. I love easy technology, and Panasonic has really hit the mark this time. Great job!
Overall, I am very pleased with this phone. My husband has a hard time with small, tightly-packed buttons on phones--he is a big man (6' 5" tall, with his wedding finger a size 15 ring) with huge hands. Little buttons (like cell phone buttons) are a real challenge for him to not mash two or three buttons at the same time by accident. This phone's buttons are well spaced, well lighted, and have big numbers on them, so he doesn't even have to put on his reading glasses to see them. Another kudos there.
My score for this is definitely a 5 star. If I could give it a 10, I would, it's that good, in my opinion. Those whom I am speaking to have no problems hearing me at all, nor I, them. I can turn the volume up or down. If other folks have problems with that (my dad would, he has hearing aids, and unless the phone he's using has a megaphone attached, he basically can't make out a word his caller is saying), a headset is always an option. Panasonic has always been gracious enough to include a belt clip with their phones as well as a jack with a protective rubber cover that a standard mini-plug will fit. And headsets (Plantronics or Jabra are both good) are dirt cheap on here. I bought a Jabra for under $3.00.
I would recommend this phone very highly to anyone who has a larger home and needs several phones so that they don't have to run to answer--just to find that by the time they arrive, the caller has hung up. Oh, and another thing...these extra handsets (the four besides the main base) only require an electrical outlet and not a telephone jack. They all connect wirelessly to the main base, which does need a regular phone jack.
Bless whomever it was that made this phone set so easy to use and so comfortable on my shoulder. I just love it. It's my favorite purchase I've made in a very long while. |

I replaced my old Panasonic system of four handsets by this Dect 6.0.
Pro: the new technology reachs every corner at my (big) house, even those where my old system has no signal at all. To set the system up is extremely simply, including the additional 6th handset I bought for a new area. The qty. of total hansets (six, plus the base they are seven locations)covers perfectly any big house.
Con: to make internal calls was easier with the old system, just pushing two buttons. This model forces to go to "Menu", look for "Intercom" and then you'll see the list of all the available handsets to call to. |

| Needed one more extension for the third floor as the base was on the first floor. Read some reviews on the product and bought it. The sound is clear no buzz or static and the base is 2 flights away! Easy to sync with the base just hold locater button down for 4 seconds...done.Very happy with this purchase. |
