100% recomendable

I got this phone for my parents who still have a landline. The display is larger and easier to read than their last system. Adding numbers to the phone book isn’t too difficult (though I did have to show my mom as it wasn’t as simple as push-this-one-button). Best feature is the spam filter and permanent call blocker. A security system requires caller to say their name and push the pound button before the call will ring through. When the call is answered the recorded name is replayed and you have the choice to accept the call, accept the call and add the caller to a “safe caller” list so they can just dial and ring past the system in the future, send the call to voicemail, or permanently block the number. It has empowered my parents to feel more confident with the people they can choose to engage with on the phone. The one potential draw back to this security feature is that some official callers might not get the option to leave a name and press pound (depending on how their dialing system is up). For instance, my mother’s doctor uses a physician referral system that couldn’t get through until we added the number first. 8/10 for display size, 8/10 for ring volume, 9/10 for call-block and security system…and so vastly superior to their last cordless phones that I will never go back. (I bought the system with 5 cordless phones and left two of them in the box. If/when any of three currently in operation get permanently lost or have battery issues, I can “take a spare” from the box without interrupting their phone service or making them potentially learn yet another new system :D )

Some people, like me, like to have a land line. I have an iphone also and understand that point of view. However my iphone is off when I’m home and phones like this are perfect to have. This way I have a phone close by where ever I am. These phones work great around the house.

Lo malo del producto es que las instrucciones no vienen en español, siendo que la venta se hace en americana latina.

Overall, this phone system works exactly as described. The 2,300-foot range is legitimate and the sound quality is consistent even when I'm far from the base. It’s a solid, reliable system for a large home. My only real gripe is the intercom feature. On my old system, I could just press one button on the receiver and dial the extension. With this VTech model, there are too many steps and menu scrolls just to talk to another room. It’s a minor annoyance in an otherwise very good product, but I definitely miss the simplicity of my old setup.
