I purchased the AT&T 2325 after having another AT&T cordless machine for years. This model disappointed. Sound quality was poor. The machine doesn't value your time when reviewing messages. It takes too much time to maneuver. Requires that you listen to time stamp with each play. The buttons are not sensitive enough. Takes too many tries to recognize remote access code. Will be returning for another machine.

If you're looking for more than the basics, go elsewhere. Even then, think again! The seemingly simple task of dialing an outgoing call is complicated and risky -- oftentimes it takes 5 or 6 tries to dial a number and "get a line". Speaker in handset is a plus, but that's about all this phone has going for it!

I purchased this phone because of the multiple mailboxes and expandable handset. I was underwhelmed . The quality of the digital voicemail recording is very poor and garbled - definitely not something you want representing you if you are a small or home-based business. And you cannot record individual messages for the mailboxes - only one main message directing people to choose 1,2 or 3.

I would say my expectations were probably too high. For a basic answering machine for personal use, it's okay. But I have returned it.

Had this sytem over 6 months. If you take the time to read the hand book and program it correctly it works just fine. Two thumbs-up. The AT&T cordless phone system and add-on model 2300 hand sets work seemlessly with our VoI Vonage phone system. With one handset in the Basement, Kitchen, Living Room and Bedroom. We love that if someone upstairs answers and the call is for someone in the basement, you can page them, tell them who's calling and then transfer the call over to them. No more screaming up or down the stairs " Hey pick-up the call if for you"

This AT&T system worked great at first and after about 7 months of use, we can hardly dial out. We got this system as a gift for Christmas, and only a 10 months later, we can hardly use the phones. We thought AT&T would be good because of the name and the specs were great. What a mistake that was. Dialing out is a nightmare. My husband called 911 twice because the keys get stuck and dials doubles. Some of the numbers don't even work. It takes 4-5 tries to dial a number and get a line. What happens if you have an emergency? The key pads must be dirty. I tried opening up the phone through the battery compartment, but there is no way to get to the keypad. The redial function is also awkward to work. Speaker in handset is a plus, but when you try to go back to the regular headset on the same call, you can easily hang up on the other person! We use three out of the four headsets that came with the phone, all of them are going bad. We took the fourth phone out to switch it with one of the bad ones and it works wonderfully..in a couple of months, it will do the same as the others...go bad! Don't buy this phone.
