I purchased this phone system a little over a year ago (from a local discount chain--sorry Amazon) to simplify getting rid of my land line. I did a lot of research at the time and decided this was the best of the available units.
It has performed very well, though it will occasionally "snatch" the connection while I'm talking on my cell and doing the walk-around-the-house thing as I talk. Easily avoided by using just the Vtech units while I'm in the house. I concur with the other reviewers who praised the sound clarity. Wireless range is very good.
The menu system is a bit clunky, but serviceable. I really like being able to transfer my contacts from the cell phone. Wish it would allow me to capture the number from an incoming call to add to the directory, but since it doesn't permit transferring to the cell phone, just from it, that wouldn't be much of a help.
I'm astonished at the vehemence of criticism re the handsets not being renameable. Is it too complicated to write #2-kitchen, #3-basement, etc. on a small piece of paper and tape it to the chargers? Sure, it would be nice if the handsets were re-nameable. But a 2 or 3 star downgrade? Get serious.
Though it has it's flaws, I wouldn't part with this phone system. Having used it for a year I purchased 2 more as holiday gifts to my daughters' families.
I've never posted a review before, but felt compelled to express my opinion about this product. I have no connection to the manufacturer.

Uniden DECT1580 DECT 6.0 Silver Cordless Digital Answering System with Caller ID Review

Uniden DECT1580 DECT 6.0 Silver Cordless Digital Answering System with Caller ID

I bought this to replace an old Uniden EXA1978 900 mhz cordless phone with digital answering machine. The 1580 is equal or better in all aspects but lacks an input jack for a headset. I thought this would be a deal breaker but the addition of a speaker phone on the handset (I feel) makes up for this. My only other complaint which is a complaint about all digital answering machines is that you cannot turn off the volume of the base when someone leaves a message. You can only lower the volume to 1 which still allows you to hear someone leaving you a message. Not great when you're a light sleeper and you get a wrong number in the middle of the night. For what it is worth, you can turn off the ringers on both the base and handset. And you could turn the answer function off which would prevent the scenario just described. Sound quality and reception is excellent. Overall, I think the phone is fine for the money. Amazon's price at the time of this writing is competitive with a local box store that starts with a W.

Vtech 6043 DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone with Digital Answering Machine & 1 Extra Handset and Charger Review

We have owned this product for about two years and already had to purchase new (expensive) batteries for the handsets because they would no longer take a charge. Now the new batteries no longer hold enough charge for the speakerphone to function - if you press the speakerphone button, the battery life immediately goes to zero and the phone dies (and you lose the call). From the beginning, these phones would die if you left them off the charger overnight.
The design is very slick and appealing, but we found that the features were clumsy and disappointing. You can't convert a caller ID number to a phone book entry because it doesn't include the "1". Phonebook entries on the two handsets are independent and can't be transferred. There is no headset jack.
Overall I would not recommend this phone. We bought it at a discount at BJ's, and for our replacement set I'm paying more attention to customer reviews and will probably go with the Panasonic KX-TG9344T.

Parrot Bt Conference Phone Bluetooth Hands Free Teleconference Review

Parrot Bt Conference Phone Bluetooth Hands Free Teleconference

The Parrot Conference phone has been good for business use. I spend a good amount of time in conference calls, this device allows me to use cell phone minutes (no long distance), or skype (voip connected via bluetooth) saving me a lot of money in long distance telephone charges. Audio quality is good, and have yet to receive any complaints about call quality from those on the other end of the line. Overall, pretty good.
