AT&T 2.4GHz Dual Corded / Cordless Telephone Answering System 1487 Reviews

Summary: Wireless Handset is Static
Comment: I wanted a combo speaker phone and answering machine, so this one looked great. Overall it is OK, but let me point out the items not so great:

- No battery backup, so the clock has to be set again if you have a power outage.
- The cordless handset is very much full of static, even close to the base, and even if you try to change channels.
- When you do loose power, the unit does not dial in touch-tone- it uses pulse!
- The caller ID history use useless since you can't append a 1 for long distance calls.

The LCD display should show more answering machine features, instead it is just caller ID and directory numbers.

On the plus side, for the number of features, the price is right, and it has been reliable so far.

Summary: buy if you can not do better
Comment: I bought this because I wanted a very cheap 2.4ghz corded/cordless telephone. It turned out to be just that. The display in the hand set went in a few days. The handset also seem a bit big and the sound quality could be better. The corded station is much better but programming and menu use is a bit confusing. As my headline suggest, you can buy if you are cash strapped and you need a 2.4ghz corded/cordless.

Summary: Great Value
Comment: This is a lot of product for the money. I haven't seen this quality instrument for the price anywhere. Takes a little getting used to for the button sequences for daily operation but soon one learns it. The lighted display is bright and clear. It becomes initialized as per the buttons you press and auto shuts afterward. The answering machine is right up to par as well. Why 4 stars then instead of 5? I find that the volume output of the speakerphone is too low for some calls. Taking that into account, you cannot go wrong with this item.

Summary: Juat what I was looking for
Comment: AT&T 2.4GHz Dual Corded / Cordless Telephone Answering System 1487
Works great and comes with extra cordless phone. Has answering machine and speaker phone also. Buttons big enough to see, volume loud enough to hear. Couldn't ask for more - especially for the price.
