Review on πŸ“ž VTech CS6529-4B DECT 6.0 Cordless Phone Set - 4 Handsets with Answering System, Caller ID, Expandable up to 5, Wall-Mountable - Blue/Green/Red/Silver by Danielle Bates

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install and does what I expected

So far so good! 15 minutes from taking the box off the porch to assembling four phones. super easy. I like color coded bases and phones (that's definitely a selling point for me). They replace a set of four Panasonic batteries that we've had for so long that all the batteries are dead and we can't replace them. They have some power - enough to verify that each of them has a dial tone and can access our voicemail. People complain about the screen size, font, and contrast making it difficult to read. Each phone's screen is almost twice the size of the Panasonic TV that has just become a huge hit. The contrast is the same. You can't read them across the room, but why should you? Or at least I don't want to. (When we watch TV, incoming calls keep flashing on the TV screens. When we do something else, I just choose when to answer the call. Most people still have my mobile number.) Because we have voice mail through our carrier, I won't set up an answering machine, so I can't talk about it. If it's hard for me to talk about or hear about, I'll come back to this review, but they seem good to me.
