I procured this handset to replace an old cordless phone on my desk at work. Overall, it's a great deal for the money. Caller ID works well.
Setup was a breeze. Haven't tried some features like room monitoring (no need for them). A coworker already had the base station.
Readout is easily readable. I simply let it charge overnight and then placed the handset on the base station. The handset was linked in a matter of seconds and now I have a fully functioning phone that only takes up about 8 square inches on my desk.
The only downside (and it's really no big deal) is that I've noticed a very slight lag in the ring of this phone and the others near me that have their own base stations. I would certainly recommend this type of handset for someone wanting to expand their base station.
I decided to add an accessory handset to the phone I purchase a few years back and was cautious that a more recent model would work. This handset met my best hopes in that it was compatible with the older desk-set, had the two line dialing, and synchronized effortlessly. The features are the same as my original handset and the sound quality is satisfactory.
Pretty much the same phone as came with the TCX8500.The phone itself has a little bigger base than original phone, so when I was registering the phone I had to put it on the base without the battery cover.I left it in the base for 5 seconds- that was enough to register the phone.It works the same way as other phones, easy to use, plenty of features, see description of the phone for the full list.
It was just what I expected and the price was great. The product is a replacement for an older model. However, yesterday the battery went dead. Order was filled and delivered in a very timely manner. Before I knew it, it arrived. Would not recharge after over 24 hrs in the charger. Luckily, my husband had saved the battery from the old unit.
I love the features of this phone. But like other reviewers have noted, the center button that accesses the stored phonebook and caller id stops working. This has happened with two phones after a little over a year each.
