by isewell Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 28 '02
Pros: Good voice quality, easy to use, speakerphone on handset
Cons: A few user interface annoyances
This is my fourth cordless phone in as many years, and I think I finally have a keeper! This time, I was looking for a cordless with speakerphone on the handset, an integrated answering machine (since eVoice died!), and preferably wall-mountable....

Phone for the Lonely Family

by diontay , Aug 23 '02
Pros: Excellent intercom system; Nice styling; Clear display on the handsets; Speakerphone; Price
Cons: Quality?; Lack of centralized caller ID; Speakerphone reception and location
This is an excellent cordless phone, but first and foremost, I must say that the deciding factor in our purchasing this phone was the information we received from user reviews about this and other phones on Epinions. So I would like to thank those users...

Pros: Clear reception, no phone jack required, handsfree feature, stylish

Nice, but not there yet.

by hodgess_99 , Jul 07 '02
Pros: Inexpensive, full-duplex speakerphone in handsets, system works during power outage!
Cons: Inconsistent reception, no central directory, can't name extensions, tiny "soft" button descriptions
I bought the Vtech system (base and three remotes) to replace a fragile and failing Siemens gigaset 2400 system. The Vtech system has a few nice features, but it is still plagued by some of the problems of the Siemens system and it lacks a few really...

VT2461- Crystal Clear 2 floors down!

by consumertalks , May 06 '03
Pros: Excellent Range Mailbox Options Headset available
Cons: Caller ID (rarely) misses a phone number
I've got a VTech VT2461 2.4 w/Digital Answering Machine. There are 3 different "voicemail" boxes, just tell people to hit 1, 2, or 3, and each box has it's OWN password. Handy for roommates or if you have an ad in the paper. I bought it for $130 at ...

2nd Update to 'Lasted only 6 weeks': Replacement Phone, Same Problem

by rexb1 , Sep 01 '02
Pros: Clear reception a few feet farther than 900MHz phones.
Cons: Unusable after 6 weeks, the replacement phone has the same problem.
The Replacement phone has the same problem as the first phone- the handset mutes the conversation after about 10 minutes use. A new battery came with the phone. Communications with the extra handset inside my metal shop 90 feet away is still good....

A sorry disappointment

by magsig , May 31 '03
Pros: Excellent feature set. Well-made physical design and layout. Nice small handset.
Cons: Sound quality very poor. Lots of static.
After reading the reviews on Epinions, I was very interested in this phone. I wanted a multi-handset phone with a built-in answering machine base.

VTech Quality Very Nice

by sillypuppy , Sep 16 '02
Pros: multiple handsets, crystal clear reception, 3 mailboxes, intercom
Cons: no password protection on mailboxes, no dial pad on base

Poor Answer Machine

by brewmstr , Oct 11 '02
Pros: Acceptable range for the handsets.
Cons: Answer Machine quite accepting messages and tech support was not able to fix the problem
I liked having more than one handset to place in other rooms that do not have access to a phone line. The range of the handsets was adequate to carry around while doing yard work. The receiver emits interference and I could hear it from my corded phone...
