* Uniden CEZA1998 5.8 GHZ ...
The only problem with this phone is that is does not have a light of any sort advising that you have an incoming call message. Which means you have to turn on lights or go over to phone to see is you have a CID message.

* works well for me ...
Good-sized buttons, simple controls on the base. Corded/cordless gives you the best of both worlds.

* Could be great ...
This machine could be great, large keys and great features, but the only small keys are the most important and most used keys. Good luck finding and using the replay, play, skip, and erase keys. Had to glue beeds on these keys for my Mom to use the phone.

* Great Phone But--------- ...
The phone is great but doesnt have a feature that lets you know when a message is waiting on voice mail. My old phone had a red blinking lite to alert us to a message.Other than that the phone is great.
