AT&T CLP99387 DECT 6.0 Expandable Cordless Phone with Bluetooth Connect to Cell, Smart Call Blocker and Answering System, Metallic Blue with 3 Handsets

This phone model allows total control over how calls are handled, unlike my old Panasonic phone.There is a leaning curve involved to set up the Call Block features, but once programmed in this phoneperforms amazingly well. No more unwanted ring-a-dings at all!5 stars to the AT&T software development team.1 negative is the sound quality of the desk set. It should be much better. The handsets are OK.

Love the block call feature. Sound quality is good. Had about 6 months. So, can't really rate the batter life, but it seems good. Have nothing bad to say. Perfect for a landline. Have set up my contacts in the directory and like that. The answering machine does it's job and is very easy to understand. When calls come in it announces who the call is from even when it is not a recognized number, it will talk and give the number of the caller.

Overall, love the call screening! Not sure we will bother to set up to use our cell phone numbers with this, as we could also do, but the option is there.The base station equipment is solid and easy to pre-charge and then put into place, along with the two extra handsets.It takes awhile to go through all the setup, and the instructions do cover almost every situation. Thank goodness the software has some appropriate prompts and suggestion which does make things a bit easier.If you've not set up a screening phone set before, you'll want to set aside an afternoon to set this one up.Basically, we wanted the caller screening and control to approved/block callers. The extra features on the phone, for using it to call or receive calls as up to two cell phones, in addition to the land line, is overkill. That is the main reason for the missing 5th star, although I think needing much of an afternoon is longer than you should need for setup, that is what we needed.

good price. Works great

The reason for the rating of three stars is because the volume at its highest point is not very high.

I purchased this phone thinking that it was the end of all of my spam/junk calls. First of all in order for calls not to get blocked you have to put them in your directory. Sounds easy enough, NOT!!!!!. Think about it. How many people do you know?, does that include you Doctors, Attorneys, Hospitals, long lost friends? That’s not all. My brother was definitely on the list and his calls were always BLOCKED!!! No explanation, no press #1 to be connected, nothing just stated your call is blocked, GOOD BYE. I lived with that for four months and then the phone stopped working. I was on my cell phone with my supplier for two hours while I still had internet service, wi-fi and television only for them to run all sorts of tests to tell me that my phone connection was fine and that it was my telephone. I had no dial tone whatsoever so using my cell I called the company that covered my telephone with a four year extended warranty. Nope, only when the manufacturers warranty is over. I called them and they said that they had to verify that it was in fact the telephone and not the phone line. They asked me if I had another telephone to plug in like and old tone or pulse phone and my response was that I didn’t have one of those for years. Then they asked me to bring my unit over to a neighbor and plug it in there. Sorry, but defective is defective and this AT&T phone was JUNK!!! I am a 72 year old disabled person and enough is enough. I will NEVER PURCHASE an AT&T product again and sorry Amazon, it’s off to a Brick & Mortar store I go.

This was for my elderly mother. Being able to program six (6) rings was very helpful for her to answer before sent to voicemail…..

Nice big buttons. My dad can see it easily.
