did a lot of reading and looking at phones and when i purchased this one it had decent reviews and fit my budget and my needs. Initially the phone was fine, but after a couple months the battery kept dying out. The battery indicator will be showing a full charge but after 30 minutes of talking the phone dies, needless to say its very annoying to be in mid conversation and have the phone die (this has resulted in numerous conversations over speaker phone, which by the way works good). Seeing as how a phones primary function should be to facilitate talking i'm very disapointed! The functions offered are nice (the speaker phone function on the phone itself (not the base) is nice and allows friends and famaily to hear my 18 month old daughter babble while we talk. So good functions, nice design, good price but horrible battery!

Had my phone for about a year now and it never has held a charge for more than 20 minutes of talk time. From day one I charged the phone over night for about 15 hours and found the unit would display "Recharge" after about 15 to 20 minutes of use. After a couple of months I purchased a new battery and the problem was not fixed. Now a friend of mine with the same phone is having the exact same problem after only 2 months. There is definetly a problem with the design of this phone. AVOID THIS PHONE !!!

Went through four of these phone and none of them worked. Battery life on three was less that 4 hours. Handset had response time problems on two of the four. Finally sent the fourth one back and started shopping for another brand. I have the previous generation Panasonic and love it.

Great features yes, but I have had (and am still having) the same battery problems as other reviewers: the phone regularly needs 12 hours of charging to provide about 2 hours maximum talk time - and it only has about 12 hours standby time at most even when it's "fully charged." To make matters worse, the handset produces endless snap, crackle and pop on almost every channel. Very disappointing. Have had two other Panasonic cordless phones -- one of them was excellent and that's why I've kept buying the brand. This phone may have cured me of the Panasonic habit.

i had nothing but problems with this phone. first off it was really static sounding. sedcond, it would change channels automaticly every few seconds and half the time it would get worse reception and the other half it would produce a loud buzzing noise that wouldnt go away till you manually changed the channel 3 or 4 times. if you live in a house or apt with walls that are thicker than paper, this phone probably wont work for you either. but the good thing, i took it back to the store )circut city) and they took the piece of junk off my hands once and for all.
