Other convenience features include a receiver belt clip, and the desk- or wall-mounting capability of the phone. The 26998GE1 sports a brand new look, incorporating "nightglow" blue into the keypad, and an upright base that makes it easier for users to read the Caller ID display. The compact base design adds to the units' versatility, making the phones a perfect fit for the bedroom, living room or kitchen.

Customer Reviews:

Buyers beware!.......2005-09-06

This is a decent phone and answering system for about the first year, then two major problems start. If you have cell phones, charging them anywhere close to this phone will cause these problems to appear sooner than normal.

Buttons stick making it very hard to dial a number.

A clear conversation might be interrupted by "electronic noise."

This phone works well with good quality and reception.

Satisfactory Service.......2005-06-17

My parents have always tried to buy high quality but not overly expensive telephones with the expectation that they wont last over two years. It has been about a year and a half and the phone is still doing great. They love the phone, the machine works great, and the phone serves its purpose.

Button Problems.......2005-05-08

Phone itself (reception, sound, answering machine, etc) works great, but the buttons stick and then fall off. I see from the reviews I am not the only one with this problem. I am in this site now to look for phones as I am now missing my #1, #3, and talk buttons. E-mailed GE to see the price of a new handset and got a useless response telling me to call some long distance number?! Off to buy a phone!

The phone is fine, whine somewhere else.......2004-12-13

My folks who are in their late sixies have had this phone for over a year. It works just fine. My father suffers mild hearing lost, corrected with hearing aids. They have no problem hearing the messages, or with reception. In fact they like so much they want another one without the answering machine for another room. Just wanted to add a postive review to keep things balanced.
