First rate phone

This phone is the highest rated cordless of the 143 that Amazon offers, and for good reason: equipment quality, sound clarity, and low price, offering the advantages of speakphone *and* cordless for less than half the price of similar products!

Quality and good looks

I've been looking for a decent cordless phone that doesn't cost a lot and will handle CID/Call Waiting...but, I also wanted something that doesn't feel like a pile of plastic in my hand and look like a cheap stamped out generic device. This phone, so far, has exceeded my expectations. Everything about it is quality. The packing..the included ear piece headset...the built in speakerphone...the manual. The one thing I wanted to find out in the manual was how to treat the battery and it defined that perfectly. I kind of knew this already, but it was great to see that they spelled it out in print. To achieve maximum memory/charge, it's important to let the battery discharge all the way before charging it again, at least for the first few cycles. Amazingly, this manual pointed that out.
The ear piece was, at first, hard to put on, but, duh, I read the manual and am now wearing it with great pleasure and fit...as well as great audio. It even has a volume and mut control on the cord.

Anyway...I'd recommend this phone highly. Comes in blue or red...I got the red..different and flashy.

Finally - I found my match!

I was on the quest for my match - my phone match that is. And I finally found it. I was very frustrated, since I went through one phone after another. Would take it out of the package, read the booklet, get the battery charged and then - nothing but dissapointment. Tried the VTch and Uniden and now this Panasonic phone. Even though I thought it was a little pricy I decided to give it a try. Does not have an answering machine, but that did not matter to me, since I have Voice Mail. Right from the start I was excited, since I just had to charge the phone for 6 hours and not 16 like the other phones. Excellent clarity and reception. Another feature I love is, that I am using the 10-10 phone #'s for cheap long distance and this phone can store phone # 36 digits long. So you plug all the numbers in and just hit "phonebook" and "dial". Great! Bought the phone in the blue/purple color. It also has a battery indicator like you know it from your cell phone. So, when the battery is getting low - put it back in the charger. I would recommend this phone to anybody.

A buy-it-and-forget-it phone ...

... which is certainly a good thing. Now that I've bought this phone, its solid construction and excellent performance leads me to believe that this will be the last cordless telephone I purchase in a long time. It seems that I go through cordless telephones fairly often, usually thanks to the cheap-feeling construction and bad reception of other phones, but this Panasonic KX-TG2216 performs like a champ and looks made to last. And I can't recall any static or other ill effects in two weeks of owning it.

It seems Panasonic knows how to make a solid phone, and Amazon's price (at least when I purchased it) is a steal.

What a phone!!!

I purchased this phone after several frustrating years with other cordless phones. I will never have to buy one again, because the Panasonic KX-TG2216 will last forever! It has EXCELLENT voice quality, and it almost never gets "fuzzy" reception while speaking. I got mine in red, which looks really sleek and futuristic. The many different ring tones, the very large memory storage, and the ergonomically correct design have made me recommend this product to everyone. The price that amazon offers for it is not bad, either...
