The ClipFone 8300 900 MHz cordless telephone system has many useful features for your home, including dual handsets with sleek, modern styling. Lightweight and packed with all the extras, the ClipFone can be connected in seconds, and you can dial using either handset or the base speakerphone.
Before you can begin using the handheld devices, you must charge both of the included handsets. Once your ClipFone is fully charged you can begin using its many convenient functions. With an intercom between handsets, communicating within your home is easy--call your daughter to dinner when she's out by the pool, or check to make sure your son is doing his homework downstairs. The ClipFone also lets you transfer calls between handsets or back to the base.
A handy flash feature opens a new line when you're finished with a call--press the phone button on either handset, or on the base if you are using the speakerphone. There are four available ringer tones, and it's easy to program each handset and the base to ring with a different tone by holding down the redial button on the handsets. You can also place callers on hold, and the line will be muted for privacy until you return.
The ClipFone can store up to 34 telephone numbers for memory dialing. There are 12 available numbers for each handset and an additional 10 numbers for the base. Each stored number can have up to 16 digits, making the memory feature perfect for both local and long- distance storage.
You can enhance your ClipFone by adding up to two additional handsets. Each of the four handsets features a different color code that corresponds to a number on the base. This makes programming the phone system and transferring calls a snap. The ClipFone also supports headsets for hands-free convenience.
We admire the ClipFone's design, although some of the advanced features may take time for new users to master. Also, in our tests, the speakerphone muffled our voice even when we were standing near the base. Still, with its dual handsets and well-chosen set of features, the ClipFone makes a fine addition to your home. --Megan Dugan
Pros:
- 40 channels for optimum connections
- Stores up to 34 frequently dialed numbers

Save Your Money!!.......2002-04-24
Most phone functions work as indicated.
Bad:
- Speaker-phone function is not very clear, callers frequently tell me they have a hard time hearing me speak clearly. Volume for the speaker, although a slide type has one setting, LOUD.
- When hanging up the phone, one must be careful to get the charging lights in the lighted position. This is frustrating, and the first phone I have owned that did not self cradle for charging. Sometimes requires two or three times & holding your mouth right to get it to the correct position.
- The point made by an earlier reviewer about the hand set going into a continuous ring is true. This can be caused by a caller who calls and then hangs up before the hand set is lifted. You have to take the ringing hand set off of the cradle and hit the OFF button, and or remove the battery as stated to get the ringing to stop. I have returned from extended trips to find the phone ringing in a continuous ring.
- Batteries are not standard and must be ordered from AstraLink/ClipFone, although not very expensive($10.00) + $5.00 S/H, not being able to go to Radio Shack to get them is a joke!
- My wife and I have home offices, I thought this would do the trick for communication between she and I, however, she refuses to use this phone, she just hates it!
