This is a great little phone for the most part.

1)The buttons are not tiny, so you won't be pressing the wrong numbers by mistake.

2)The digital readout is good, but after about two years it begins to fade a bit.

3)The sound quality is clear.

4)The cord is way too short though. You have to be sitting right next to the phone. But I simply replaced it with a longer cord.

5)Programing is not too complicated, but keep the manual nearby for when you have to re-program numbers. It is not simple enough to remember how to do it easily.

But it is better than most other phones I have used. I would recommend it to anyone who was looking for a new phone.

I recently purchased this phone and I expect this will more than pay for itself in a short time. I am using this phone along with a calling card (3.5 cents per minute)to save money and the hassle of trying to call during certain times on the various calling plans. No calling plan comes close to using some of todays calling cards.
I use one of the buttons for the phone number of the calling card, another for the pass code, then another for the party you wish to talk to. This takes a couple of seconds, then you have a crystal clear connection.
When there is a need to be on hold for a while, you just push the speaker phone button to free yourself of having to hold the phone up to your ear. I opt to use the speaker phone on all calls, then I pick up the when the phone is answered.
I hope this phone lasts. I'm hoping for these to come on sale as this will save time (and money)in shopping for the holidays.

After 15 months of use I've concluded that this is the best speakerphone I ever had. It has the weight (it's not dinky) and appearance of a quality phone. The buttons are large,the sound is good, the LCD screen makes it easy to program, and every feature still works. Anything negative? Yes, the phone does not have caller-ID.

If you're looking for a simple phone with direct access phone book and a speakerphone, well, it is going to be the right choice.

This phone helps me a lot in dialing long numbers with long extensions such as Phone cards and/or Customer service with too many prompts. The PAUSE function is easy to use and program.

Like the other Panasonic cordless phone I have, this one also has a very clear LOUD speaker phone and also a jack for the head set. If you like to make long calls with long hold and waiting periods this one is perfect. Don't forget the EASY- TO- REACH electronic volume control buttons with screen scale display, and that's applies to all the hand set, the head set and the speaker.

You may wonder why I got this one while I still have the cordless. Well, this one I still can find it in its place, handy, right beside my desk top. While the cordless is pain in the neck to HUNT FOR even with the locator beeper that could cause a nightmare to your child if someone left it till night beside his bed.

Remember that there is no Caller ID in this phone. But the screen is very helpful in displaying dialed numbers, numbers in phone book and the time counter during the call.

I purchased two of these phones based upon the previous customer reviews. I was looking for a phone with at least above average sound quality. Other customer reviews gave me the impression that this phone would satisfy these requirements. My previous phone sounded signifiantly better and it was about 1/2 the price. Most people would find the sound quality alright, but if you are looking for above average sound quality you will not find it in this phone. I'm quite disappointed. The rest of the phone's features are fine - no complaints except for the primary reason why I purchased this phone.
