Time-tested basic system
(5 out of 5) by S. J. Brown on Jul 19, 2006 (Orlando, Fl)This is my second purchase of an AT&T 5840. The first was three years ago.
Price comparison caution: Some pkgs include only one handset, others have 4 handsets and extra chargers.
Pros: Easy and intuitive to use; durable handsets have survived dropping on hard floors; does not interfere with my wireless computer network; good range, no dead spots in house or yard; recharchable batteries have lasted over 3 years and are still strong; base unit battery is interchangeable with handset batteries;
Cons: Base unit speaker damaged by playing volume too loud; handsets are too large to fit in your pocket, but belt clip is good; handset memory is lost when battery is completely discharged, but beeps before going dead; less than 50 possible remote access codes

Best AT&T Phone We've Had!
(5 out of 5) by Betty Lippincott on Nov 3, 2006 (Estacada, OR USA)We moved to a new state and not knowing what serviceswere available, we ordered the phone/answering machine. We use the phone/answering machine every day. This is absolutely the best product from AT&T we've ever had. We would purchase another one if needed.
