Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars What happens after 2 years?.......2003-07-03

I have had this phone for about 2 years and it works great. The sound is reasonable and the volume control is a plus, along with the mute button.

I didn't like the little arm that supported the headset; it just made the hanging wire look bad. Then there is the extra battery - GREAT idea. Just that the spare is "dead" now. Started dying after about 6 months.

The cushion earpiece is sloooooowly disintegrating and cannot be replaced because everything is just "fixed". It would have been good if some components were detachable and could be replaced.

All in all, a great phone for the price. Now I just need to contemplate purchasing a new battery or another phone.

3 out of 5 stars I loved it, but now, it's garbage for me........2003-06-03

I have this phone, and have used it for conference calls and love the phone, but it has issues....

The positive items:
1. MUTE BUTTON!
2. Memory functions, so I can use it for my calling card for work.
3. The battery lasts a long time, and you get a spare with the phone.

The negative items:
1. I didn't have 'great' luck with interference with the phone when at a distance. I would guess that 75 feet is it's distance, max.
2. The belt clip broke early. I was warned of this from others.
3. The writing on the buttons wore off rather easy. The volume buttons and the mute button on my phone are blank now.
4. The cord to the headset has frayed, and now my headset is useless!! It isn't replaceable, and will have to be trashed. A perfectly good phone, but one little wire is broke, and now the whole phone is garbage.
5. The head clip broke, and had to be taped together within a month of it's purchase.

Overall I love the phone, but won't buy one again... I can get a better phone for less cost, that is built better....

5 out of 5 stars This phone is awesome, why was it discontinued??.......2002-12-03

I think this phone is the greatest thing and have used it for about three years. I bought one for my mom with caller id and she loved it and wants another (hers broke). Bought one for a friend last year and he loves it too!!

5 out of 5 stars In this price range - tops.......2002-06-28

I've had the same problem as others mentioned - headset connectors failed. However, this was after 1 and 1/2 years of daily use. Sound quality is good. Nothing else comes close in this price range. Try getting just a decent headset for this price.

2 out of 5 stars Not my idea of a cordless phone.......2001-12-23

The phone had been dropped just a couple of times & fell off the waist of my pants and after a week since the purchase the microphone of the headset stopped working. The unfortunate thing is we cannot change just the headset we would have to replace the whole phone altogether. I went to the GE website and could not find the phone or replacement parts. I will never purchase this phone again. I ended up ordering a different brand with the option to replace just the headset, if need be.
