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.

This phone is a great phone. It is used as another handheld in our set. We needed another for our newly finished basement. It really does a lot for the money. The sound quality is great and we have actually dropped our phones on the tile floor several times and they hold up very well. You really can't go wrong buying this set.

Love this phone. I have the base/answering machine and lost the handset so I bought this to replace. Love that it can store 100 directory entries.

I have one on the base and 7 other handsets, one even in the garage. When power goes out it will still work for I believe it's over 2 hours. I think it's the best phone I've ever owned, the range is very good, and the battery last for days without being in the charger.I even forgot one handset outside for a few days,went through a rain storm, I was sure it was done for, but no it kept right on working.
Good job AT&T

We love these phones! They have have wonderful reception and many adjustment controls, along so many other features--including a color display, directory, and many different unique ringtones. You can actually record your voice into the phone (sing a song, etc.) and THAT can be the ringtone! We have tried it and it works! You could record your favorite song on it from your CD player too. You can label each handset on the display with "LIVING ROOM," "KITCHEN," "OFFICE," etc. so you know what cradle to put it on. You can call someone from another room using the intercom and I really love how I can check and erase messages from ANY phone in the house. They make a great nightlight at night too if you are walking around for a minute and press "end." They light your path very well for about 30 seconds. I have not tried linking it to my cell phone yet. My toddler or I dropped the phone on a very hard tile floor several times and one of our displays has gone in and out because of that, but that was our fault. Everything else continued to work very well. We had always had dud phones, so I was so happy when we found these, because they are wonderful phones and have every feature I was looking for. Buy them if you need a very reliable quality phone!
