No more poor cellphone reception at home!

Dec 6, 2007 - By Alicia F. Williams (MA United States)

First- this is the expansion hand set- you need the other part for this to work.
If you have ONE spot in your house you can only use your cell phone, this is for you.

It's a great device. Your cell phone rings.... you have the home phone in your hand, and a little light flashes that says "cellular". You push the button and you are now connected to your cell phone VIA your home phone handset.

Not hard to set up, but you need bluetooth.

One complaint, the caller id isn't ever right when someone calls my cell. I just ignore it.

Now I can use my cell phone ALL over my house and get crystal clear reception. Just put the phone where you get reception- turn on the bluetooth, Viola!

Your cell must be within 3 feet of the base station for it to work.

I love it. It's a great phone for people who can't talk on their cell phones at home because of poor reception!

Nice phones

Apr 23, 2008 - By T. Bently Durant (Fort Worth, Texas)

Great product:
Pros:
1. Bluetooth works with blackberry Curve and blackjack. Get incoming calls and make outgoing calls on cell phones by hitting the cell phone button.
2. Separate ringer for bluetooth cell phone lets you know where the call is coming too.
3. Assign separate ringers from list of 15+ to all you're frequent callers

Cons:
1. Have to program each phone individually. Why can't they just clone from base, or auto transfer phonebooks
2. Battery life is short. A day and a half off base and the phones dead.
3. bluetooth was tricky for a while. I had to reset it a time or two. But now it's pretty reliable.

I love this phone

Jan 2, 2008 - By A. Crochet (Louisiana)

I originally bought the GE Fusion phone (DO NOT BUY IT) the backup battery for it does not work and if you have a cable phone the answering machine does not work either..... This phone is very nice though and it works like a dream.... I have had it for 6 months without any trouble. The range is very long as well... I can walk about 50-75 yards from my house before it starts to get any static. And can go over 100 Yards before it totally stops working.... If you need more than that get a cell phone lol!

One great phone system

Apr 20, 2008 - By Robert E. Darling

I have been a faithful Panasonic user for cordless phones. With some reluctance I purchased the at&t phone. It had all of the features I was looking for and then some. I have used the phone for several months now and I am amazed at the quality of this phone. The buttons are large enough and seperated well from the other buttons so you don't make entry errors. The menus are easy and logical. You can call each handset seperately or all at one time. I like a cordless phone with a base that has a keypad and the keypad is excellent. I haven't had a chance to use the bluetooth conections yet but the possibilities are exciting. The phone comes with the base and one extra handset. Additional handsets are available. This is my only negative about the phone. The price of the handsets. At $70 per handset you invest some pretty good money by the time you buy 3-4 extra handsets. However, the system is flawless as a system. I believe this phone is worth the money. I would buy it again.
