This is a pretty slick phone system. It is useable right out of the box without
touching the manual. However if you open
the manual you will find a world of complexity.
The symbols in the manual could be a bit clearer. For example one symbol is a wrench and that
was difficult to tell in the printed manual.
The wrench takes you to where you can make many changes. In fact there are pages and pages of things
you can program the phone to do. You can
set it for Voicemail through your service provider rather than the answering
machine.
Specific features I liked are:
►Large clear screen that backlights when the phone is
answered or any key is touched.
►It has a shoulder grip which is a knobby projection on the
back for ease on holding next to your shoulder.
However the speaker phone works very well and I have not had anyone ask
if I was standing in a barrel when using it.
►Night setting allows you to disable the ringer for specific
hours but also allows input of specific phone numbers that are allowed to get
through the night time setting. Which is good for early to bed folks who still
want to hear from family members or crucial business affairs.
►Call blocker is a feature that allows you to block unwanted
calls from telemarketers or old girl/boy friends.
There is also a feature that I don't plan on using but seems
well thought out is a sound activated baby monitoring function. That is pretty cool.
Overall this is a phone system with a level of features that
should satisfy the most discerning buyer.
