With three mailboxes, the VTech VT9151 can record calls for you and two associates or family members. This phone also offers 900 MHz cordless convenience and makes an attractive desktop statement.
To set up the phone, we inserted the battery pack, plugged in the AC power, and connected the RJ-11 telephone-line cord. We recommend that you charge the battery overnight before using the phone for the first time. Voice-guided menus help you set the outgoing message, security code, day and time, audible message alert, announce-only mode, base ringer status, and number of rings (two, four, six, or toll-saver). We followed the menus, and after much trial and error, we were able to set these options without consulting the owner's manual; however, we recommend that you follow the manual for the easiest setup and for a proper introduction to the phone's many features.
In our tests of the VT9151, we placed the base unit in a downstairs area, where walls, floors, and obstructions might interfere with signal quality. We made several calls, and the phone sounded only slightly softer than our corded desk phone, with only occasional, minor static when the handset was close to the base. When the handset was about 50 feet from the base, reception started to get fuzzy. At about 100 feet from the base, interference greatly increased; the handset completely lost contact with the base at about 450 feet.
The VT9151's answering machine can store messages for three people (or for three different purposes) and callers can specify which person they would like to leave their message for. In our tests of the answering system, the sound quality was very good with few compression artifacts. Maximum recording time for one message was exactly four minutes, with a total recording time of 25 minutes and 35 seconds.
Overall, with its 900 MHz operation, three message boxes, more than 25 minutes recording time, voice-guided menu operation, and fun color, the VTech 9151 makes an enjoyable, practical, and flexible telephone system for your desk.
Pros:
- Modern, attractive styling
- 900 MHz operation for better sound and range
- 3 mailboxes in answering system
Cons:
- 4-minute limit per message
Product Description:
The Vtech 9151 is a 900 MHz cordless telephone with digital answering system. It includes an Integrated Telephone Answering Device (ITAD). The ITAD uses digital memory to record messages, eliminating the need for cassette tapes. You can access your messages from the base unit, or from a remote location. All programming and remote operation functions are guided by a voice menu system. Your VTech VT 9151 is equipped with a spare battery charger built-in to the base unit. The spare battery charger allows you to always have a charged battery available, should your handset battery discharge during normal use. Your VTECH VT 9151 cordless telephone is equipped with a 2.5mm Headset Jack for use with an optional accessory Headset for hands-free operation. Your VT 9151 is designed to operate at the maximum power allowed by the FCC and IC. This means your handset and base unit can communicate only over a certain distance - which will depend on the location of the base unit and handset, weather, and the construction and layout of your home or office.
