    4.0 out of 5 stars Sleek and perfectly functional 21 April 2010
    We purchased this phone as we were looking for a different looking cordless phone. The phone works well and all calls even international are clear and crisp. The only issue is that the battery indicator never seems to be fully charged no matter how long it is left in the charge unit. This does not seem to impact the talk time and is a minor fault. We have been using it for about a month and the phone is a good phone for it's purpose.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Really pleased - lives up to my expectations! 28 Mar 2010
    I bought these as I expect most will, as they look very different. I was a bit hesitant has I have read mixed reviews, but I think they're great. I mainly chose them as I wanted a wall mounted phone for my kitchen, and it does this well. You can choose whether it auto answers when picking off the base or you manually answer, the ringtones are reasonable, with 2 or 3 fairly standard rings, as well as melodies. My only slight complaint, is you can't have different rings for external and internal intercom calls, so if it rings, you don't know whether it's someone from one of the other handsets, or an outside call - a minor complaint. Overall, they are nice to use and hold, and refreshingly different from the multitude of other handsets.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Very different 11 Feb 2010
    By M. Hin

    I bought this phone because it looks so different from the usual cordless phones. I think the ring tones are fine but nothing unusual. I am finding it quite easy to use and yes it does help if you read the manual as you expect there to be loads of menu's when in actual fact there aren't and the phone is much simpler than you expect. The reception is good and the speaker phone is really good, much better than on other phones. I read in other reviews that some people said that you can hang it on the wall and others believe you can't. Having been prepared for that possibility I didn't buy it to put on the wall and have found since that ours definately does not stay in the base if it was on the wall no matter how carefully I tried to make it stay in there. In other reviews I read that you can't transfer numbers from one phone to another, this is actually not true as you can (just read the manual!!)
    Overall, I love it because it is unusual and it isn't one of those big blocky black things that everyone else has.
