This set looks good, feels good and the reception is great even though I have the base unit located next to my PC and near my router, both of which are not recommended in the manual.
Giving each handset a descriptive name makes intercom calls between handsets really easy, no more remembering a handset by it's number {can't change default ring tone for intercom calls though}.
Each handset can optionally display it's name/date and time and have different wallpapers/colours/ringtones.
The display will also show "line in use" if one of the other handsets is currently on a call.
Transferring an external call is really easy {Press intercom, select handset, then when other handset has answered you hang up........call transferred}.
Speed dialling available.
Auto Talk option {lift handset to answer a call}.
Privacy mode: if you don't want other handsets listening in on your call.
LCD display by default setting is always lit when in charging mode, but you can turn this feature off.
SMS' pre-configured for BT Text, can be private or publicly available.
Call barring if you have Caller ID, up to 30 numbers...... great for those pesky call centres.
Memo alarm: once or daily.
Night mode for each handset, for those times you don't want the handset to ring. {you can allow certain category of callers from your phonebook to override this setting}
Call restriction on selected handsets, up to 6 numbers or area codes.
Remote access: Voice guidance prompts can be heard instead of having to remember or write down button presses.
Maximum number of rings before answer machine kicks in can be set up to 7.
Callers recording time can be up to 3 mins.
You can even record a telephone conversation {inform the other person first as they will hear beep sounds every 15 seconds}.
Illuminated key pad I find a godsend.
Optional belt clip for each handset supplied, but I don't feel too confident it will stay attached if knocked.
The only thing I find it lacks for me is multiple numbers against a single entry in the phonebook, would have been a nice feature.
Text on screen is a little blocky.
A 'little' more volume for those in the house who are going deaf otherwise sound is great!
I found the interface simple, no fuss to set up.

Bought this as a gift for my Mum and Dad, and had the dubious honour of setting it all up for them. I needn't have worried, as it's pretty straightforward.
I left the units on charge overnight before I connected it to their telephone line and programmed all of the settings. The ability to 'copy' across from one phone to another is a great feature, and saved so much time setting up.
The phones look good, the range is great, and of course you only need to make sure that the base unit (with the answering machine bit attached) is near a phone socket and mains supply.
All of the other handsets can be situated anywhere, the only requirement is that there is a normal mains socket near the phone, and that each handset is within range of the receiver (base unit). In a 'normal' house, I wouldn't anticipate any problems as all of the handsets worked for me first time.
Mum and Dad found the large colourful clear display and the 'night' feature really useful. Dad is partially disabled and tends to slide off to bed early in the evening. We have programmed the upstairs phones not to ring after 7:00 pm, and come back on at 9:00 am. This means that Dad is rarely disturbed by the phones ringing downstairs when he's gone to bed, but the phone can still be answered upstairs if you hear it ringing downstairs. As I said, simple, but a great feature.
Previous models were criticised for the lack of ringtone selections. I can't really comment because I'm not in a position to compare, but I will say that there are about 20 to choose from, one of which is a Christmas tune! At the end of the day, this is a telephone. 30 years ago, all telephones sounded pretty much the same. 'Ring Ring' I think it was, so I think it's trivial to get too hung up over the style and number of ringtones available. (Pun intended). Life's too short.
On the subject of handsets, I believe you can add a further two to this unit if the four supplied are not enough.
Finally, if I had to gripe about anything, it would be the very shiny black finish which would have the likes of Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced 'Bouquet') polishing the phone every three or four minutes as fingermarks appear fairly easily. Also, a bonus to others but not to me, is that I waited six weeks past the anticipated release date for this phone and paid full price, only to see now that it has dropped £30 in less than four weeks of its actual release date!
All that said it is a very attractive phone, and I have been so impressed with it that I am seriously looking to buy one for myself.
At £130 it was a very satisfactory purchase. At under £100, it's a bargain! So buy one. Or two.

Buy them, best phones I have had, seen and used. I read a couple of negative comments, one was the naming of the handsets which is possible if you read the manual or in my case simply figure it out with the menu's. The second issue was with coverage which I have had no issue with in my large house although I note that the number of bars reduces at the extreme's.
