4 out of 5 stars More than I asked for !!!   April 12, 2008
These phones are really nice. It takes a while to program numbers but once done it's very nice. I'm disabled and they save me a lot of hassles, trying to get to a phone and they can stay plugged in and charged.
The base unit is also a phone.



5 out of 5 stars Best of Four   April 1, 2008
I bought this model after returning two other manufacturers' phones and trying a third. Returned a Panasonic and a Vtech for poor sound quality. Disappointed because have had very good experiences with those brands, but we wanted an expandible portable at 5.8 Ghz so not to interfere with our home network. Tried a Motorola at a R.Sh**k and it takes the award for worst sound of the bunch. Bought the Uniden, and were impressed with the sound quality - Excellent, as compared to poor, bad and terrible.
The bonus was the list of features that work well and are well-thought-out, as mentioned in other reviews.
After three years, one battery is not charging well, and we are pleased that replacements can be found for less than $10!



1 out of 5 stars Terrible Phones, Referb or Not   March 24, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

At this moment I'm looking for a replacement for this exact phone. When I saw these reviews it seemed only fair to warn others as to why these are refurbished. Out of the box (new & not refurbished) I had trouble getting the phones to communicate with the base and they refused to 'deregister' also. Uniden has you send them back and they send you a referb in their place. All these phones end up referbs!

In addition I had nothing but trouble with their support manager who kept sending non working refrebs with the same problem as the one sent in. We ended up filing a dispute with Mastercard over continuous back and forth sending of used non-working phones that failed to arrive or function, and Uniden in turn claimed were not returned which were. It was like going into battle dealing with Uniden. Wound up keeping the only two I could get to function after they wore me down, and today must replace them because the headset jacks either cut in and out or make a horrific high pitched sound which can be heard by both parties. At this point people cringe when I call them for knowing this about our phones.

The good news gets only worse. There are few truly good cordless phones on the market being as so many people have turned to cell phones, even less of these phones are full featured. They either lack back lit keys, keypad on the base (for times when you need to press 2 for this, 3 for that, 4 to hear options again, and must take the handset away from you face to do so), hard wired handset on the base, and any number of conveniences or rudimentary functions one might expect in a decent phone. Wish me luck as Panasonic and Vtech appear to be the only viable options out there... I've already had 2 different Uniden models and can attest they are nicely designed, almost full featured, but not well manufactured, and their support is snake oil.

At least I'm willing to relate truth about this phone, for those who buy them anyhow and regret it, don't say you weren't warned! We've replaced them with our previous choice of Panosonic phones which actually work without any of these problems.



5 out of 5 stars Remanufactured Uniden Cordless Phone System   January 7, 2008
I was a bit concerned about this being a factory refurbished system, but my concerns were completely unfounded. I couldn't be more pleased with these phones and the vast array of features and settings they offer. It works great, after all, it's still a Uniden system! A great deal all around!


5 out of 5 stars My Favorite cordless phone   August 31, 2007
I love this phone and can hardly imagine any other. I live out in the country with 3 acres of land and can use it anywhere in my yard. When buzy I just use the speaker phone or the Headset. I also put the base or handset by the radio or TV and take the other handset out with me and still listen using the "Room Monitor".
I also love checking massages from the handset. The handset displays the time as well as caller ID.
The Direct Link is a fantastic feature; When away from home, just give a handset to each person in the party and contact them by pressing 1-9, without using cell phone minutes.
I love this phone so much and currently owned this model but with only 2 handsets and purched this one with 3 handsets.
In my opinion, finding a phone better would be practically an infaninate impossibility.
