Our last phone just packed in entirely and we needed a cheap house phone fast. This one seemed like a good choice, and its been working well so far.

It was fairly low priced, the main reason for buying. We also needed a phone with an answering machine, and one that was cordless. It looks nice, is small enough to sit conspicuously in our living room, and has large easy to see buttons. The 'calls' and 'redial' function are extremely handy, and the answering machine is simple enough for anyone to use.

Only a couple of minor gripes with this phone. One is that there is sometimes a little background fuzzy noise when making calls, and the other person can sound slightly quiet or muffled. The other issue is that when on loudspeaker, the call tends to crackle and break up a lot. That could just be our line though, it's hard to tell.

Overall very useful product and I would recommended.
