Rating: - * Great Phone ... I replaced a 2.4 Ghz Uniden with the DECT 6.0 since the battery was dying. The phone works very well. No interference from our WiFi network. Lots of features. And you can add handsets. I really like the ability to name the phones (bedroom, kitchen, etc.) and the ability to use the intercom function to transfer calls to a different phone. The British accent on the answering machine is cool. Overall, a really great phone. Rating: - * Suffers from fade-out. ... We bought this phone because it supposedly wouldn't suffer from interference from our home wireless system. It didn't - but it did suffer from fade-out, even if you were not moving. Called Gizmosforlife to enquire about the return policy and we're still awaiting an answer. Also sent them an e-mail and I'm awaiting a reply to that also. Rating: - * Finally a Keeper! Super-Expandable, Attractive, Amazing Range ... We have a large multi-building home with an ailing old intercom-phone system from 20 years ago ($5000 then). A wireless system would be ideal. I have purchased many systems less than 6.0 and had to return them because of poor range or bad answering machine functions. I am happy to report that this system exceeds our expectations. I don't mean to confuse you, and it probably does not matter to you, but I purchased this system because it can have multi-modules, which means that you can setup another module on the same line and expand the system with another system. You can have 4 modules, and 6 phones per module, so you can have 24 wireless phones on one line! The intercom would only work on its own module I believe. There are two modules or systems you can buy, one has an answering machine and the other does not. Make sure you get the correct one! They are the same thing except for the answering thing. Now back to exceeding expectations, the range is much better than any earlier system, so I won't need more modules anyway. I can take the phone all the way to the beach and get clear reception. The system is very very easy to install, and my hard of hearing daughter can hear the rings and the conversation crystal-clear. Also, the units are very attractive and compact, so it can fit in your pocket easily. There are more great things about this phone, but enough rambling from me for now. Thanks Uniden!!! Rating: - * Great phone! ... After reading numerous reviews and doing a fair amount of research I bought this phone over several other DECT systems. The sound is crystal clear and the range is much better than any cordless phone I've ever owned. Best thing is that we can run our Wi-Fi system AND the phone system without any interference! Rating: - * Uniden Dect 1080 6.0 ... Purchased 1 base unit with 5 handset and installed system two weeks ago. The cordless is clear and no interference. One base supports 6 handset and only one telephone outlet is needed for the base unit. All handsets accessing the telephone line through the base unit(much like a CPU). Handset may be programmed to 2 separate base units. This allowed for privacy and no other handset may pickup the line as long as you are using your handset. Any handset may access voice mail allowing the base unit to be located in any room. One handset was returned and exchanged because of charging problem, but the other 4 handsets is fine. |
