A MUST-HAVE for Moms

by dannyzmom Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jan 09 '00
Pros: hands-free, spare battery
Cons: none
This phone should be a requirement for moms. As a matter of fact, it should be one of those things you can put on your registry list for your baby shower. My husband bought this phone as a gift for me when our son was six months old. I am not sure how I...

GE Hands-Free Cordless Telephone

by mrsditmer , Feb 22 '02
Pros: Light weight, and it comes with a second battery pack.
Cons: If you bend over the wrong way the clip-on unit will fall off of you.
Well I have been wanting one of these Hands-Free units for quite a while. But none worked with my hearing aid. So when I was at a customers home and my cell wouldn't work in her area, I asked to use her phone to call my husband to let him know I was...

Pros: Hands-free comfortable phone use, great battery efficiency
Cons: interference while roaming, flimsy belt clip
In our home office, the General Electric 2-9917 cordless headset phone sits next to our computer, which sits next to our television, which rests upon a multi-unit desk. Yes, we are double-taskers. I am guilty of chatting with pals while typing...

After only one year with the GE Cordless Headset Telephone I needed a new phone.

by Nicholmere , Jul 16 '01
Pros: Mute button! Comfortable headset and earpiece.
Cons: Buttons are not backlit. Cannot be wall mounted. It broke when the warranty expired.
The GE 2-9917 is cordless telephone designed specifically for hands-free use. It is unlike other cordless telephones that offer a hand-held unit that can be used as is or with an optional earpiece and microphone, because the GE 2-9917...

Miss Chatsalot Goes Hands Free

Pros: Leaves your hands free
Cons: Can disconnect when you bend over
I have a real addiction to talking on the phone. I'm Miss Chatsalot. I have telephone lines for veins and cauliflower ears. I just love to keep in touch. I also think it’s the best way, besides the internet, to find out almost anything. I'll call...

Operator...can I help you?

by victoriasmum , Jan 18 '02
Pros: Keeps your hands free
Cons: No Call Display
Ok, so I felt a bit funny when we purchased this thing for our home office, I kept wanting to plug my nose and be directory assistance. But you know what, after time, it was worth the messed up hair and not so sexy appearance.

Life doesn't get any better than this

by my3qtpies , Oct 29 '00
Pros: hands free, 2 batteries
Cons: no more "I was on the phone and didn't have 2 hands to do it" excuses
Remember the days of being attached to the wall? Stretching to stir that pot? Then the days of 50 ft cords! Oh man oh man, can life be better than that? YES! was the resounding answer when cordless phones arrived. With their sleek, shiny pull out...

A fine phone that would be perfect except for the useless belt clip.

Why did you buy this phone?

Talk and have your pants pulled down

by cdwilli1 , Aug 10 '00
Pros: Brilliant design, high quality, inexpensive, two batteries
Cons: Minor - a little heavy
Why is it the phone rings when you are up to your elbows in cat litter, watering the plants or peeling potatoes? When you pick it up it is your oldest friend from school who you have not talked to for ever, and who you then proceed to talk to for ever,...

A Great Cordless, Hands-Free Phone - makes life easier!

by mkruse , Mar 02 '00
Pros: Inexpensive, portable, great sound quality
Cons: Long cord, attached headset
Like most people, when I'm on the phone talking with someone that's not all I'm doing. I often put in laundry, get something to eat, feed my animals, etc. Doing all this while holding a phone or putting it on your shoulder is uncomfortable and...

Sound quality suspect

by slimtae , Jun 01 '00
Pros: Frees up your hands
Cons: Suspect sound quality, inconvenient for short calls or receiving calls
I've had two experiences with this phone. The first time, I bought it as a gift for someone. A week later, she returned it, saying it was cumbersome to use, and the sound quality was bad.

A year later, while visiting my folks, I noticed my...

by gleepish , Jun 20 '00
Pros: Convenient
Cons: not very durable
When I first brought this handy little phone home, my husband looked at me like I was crazy. See, I work in a call center, for 8 hours a day 5 days a week, I spend a lot of time with a head set strapped to my head--why would I want to have the same type...

Good phone... BUT......
