I've owned a 900MHz Uniden Extend-A-Phone for over 10 years and I've been happy with it - the only exception there is that the range is pretty limited. 2 stars because it does have good range, but I would expect that in any 5.8 phone. But one of the most annoying things about this phone is that I have to set the time of day and day of week.
Getting the unit up and working was simple enough - as any phone should be. It wouldn't be so bad to set it once, but this phone has the nasty habit of resetting when I plug it in the charger after a call. With the good experience with the Uniden product and wanting to get something more up to date, I selected the Uniden 5.8 GHz model that included call ID features.
I don't know why this information isn't simply taken from the caller ID message. Programming the call entries wasn't too bad but I don't like the method for activating the calls from the list. It makes 3 way calling much more difficult when using entries from the address book.
The call could be 2 minutes or 92 minutes and it may or may not reset when placed in the charger. Bottom line for me is that this will be the last Uniden product I ever purchase.
Good look for a man. This phone was the purfect choice. I purchased this product for one of my sons for Christmas.Needless to say from the title he is a great guy but not easy to find a gift for. Havn't heard a single complaint. It is simple to operate anddependable. NO fuss, no muss. The best is, should he want to enhance his phone to a more than one device system it is a very economical and simple step. Also cudosto being able to find the perfect gift on line with such easy access andconfidence.
You have to write the number down and manually enter 1 and the area code and number for calls our of your area code. Over all it is a good phone with mute, redial, programmable ring tones and even gives the date and time and automatically updates for Daylight Savings Time.
This has more feature and even a room monitor if you have the base unit. I replaced my old phone by the same manufacturer with this one.
I sometime have to hang up on a call and call beck to resolve the issue. The only thing I don't like is that there is no channel search feature.
I live in an area where a lot of interference can occur. I don't like how you try to call a number back in a different area code but the phone will not allow you to insert a 1 and then dial.
Overall it is a nice phone.
I have had excellent luck with Uniden cordless phones for many years. The only issue I have with this phone is that it is the last phone in the house to ring. This one seemed like a good idea. The audio quality is good, the battery life is good. Alway one ring behind the rest. Not a huge issue, but annoying.
I sent this phone back because I could barley get 100 feet before being out of range
