Cheap but effective.......2001-07-20
The VTech 9241 was the phone I expected, but with a little less quality than I wanted. The first major problem to pop up was the charging of the handset. When in it's cradle, I had to make sure it was seated just right to make the contacts touch, and charge the handset. I couldn't just plop it back into the main unit. And how did I find this out? When I went to use it and found out it was dead. There is a charging indicator, but it's a dim LED underneath a shiny smooth piece of plastic that houses some of the function buttons. In the end, this makes all three LED's that are underneath it (power, charging, spare batt) almost impossible to see from any distance away.
So okay, I know to watch carefully for the charging light. But since I had to wait for my handset to charge, I had to use the speaker phone, and that's where I found the next problem. The speaker phone is ultra sensitive. Even the slightest whisper set it off. And when the speaker phone hears something, it stops playing the incoming audio. This means that I have to sit perfectly still, and not make a whisper when I'm on a conference call using the speaker phone or else I'll miss out on what the presenter is saying.
Finally, when my handset was charged back up, I found that it's transmission quality was mediocre at best. There's lots of pops and clicks, and distant static - and that's when using only one line. I give presentations over the phone to hundreds of people in a single sitting, and static that distracts from my presentation is seriously disturbing.
But I can't say the phone hasn't served it's purpose. I use the various features, mute, memory, etc. often. The volume control for controlling the volume of incoming audio on the speaker is easily accessible (although when I push the button I get no incoming audio on the speaker because I just made a sound). The handset has a similar volume control on right where the thumb goes which makes this easy to control as well. The belt clip and headset work great in place of the speaker phone, for giving presentations as you walk around the house.
The one feature it doesn't have on the handset is a mute button - that is only on the base unit. I'm not sure I understand this, and would use this feature often. All the other functions are available on the handset - why not mute?
So if you're just conducting regular business calls using this phone, it's great. But if you're expecting a little more - shop a little more.
Not a bad phone for the money, but..........2001-04-04
Vtech 9241 cordless 2line phone is a winner........2000-07-04
The phone does not have an answering machine but my other Vtech phone handles that chore.
If you do not like to read instructions, need two line capability and a headset option get this phone. Just plug in the line and make calls.
