EASY TO USE AND GREAT PRICE

This is a great product if you are looking for an answering machine that is easy to use and gets the job done. First off, this is a General Electric product and you can't go wrong with any of their products. Ease of use, sound clarity was good, and I love the easy one-touch playback and long-distance calling features. Again, it's very easy to use and not complicated like many other brands.

Pros
  • Complete Set
Cons
  • Sad Packaging

Reliable workhorse

I have had three of these answering machines for at least 9 years and am replacing the one we installed in the kitchen because the volume no longer drops to 0 when we want it quiet. The other two still work like new. One of these machines is used for my business and the promotional message changes 2 times a day (for 9 years). I'm glad I can still get a replacement for the same model.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Expandable

So helpful. for phones and accessories

I am so thankful that I continue to use absolutely amazingly simple technology! I'm not a big phone user so my desk phone is all I need to intercept calls and this device gives me instant visualization when I get home. I've been using this system for over a decade and was afraid I wouldn't be able to replace it when it recently started going haywire. I have a cell phone, but that's not my main number. My home phone number is the number I use, so being able to buy a replacement answering…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Concerns me

GE=29875GE1 Responsible for handling

The machine is used and was delivered without operating instructions. Most of the machine was relatively easy to set up, although some functions didn't seem to stay where I set them at the beginning (e.g. the time and day kept resetting to the first day of the year). That twist now seems to have corrected itself. Voice quality in messages is not as clear as I had hoped. When I tried setting the device to save calls, it barely rang before the announcement started and I didn't have enough time to

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Long waiting time

Good answering machine for techies

This answering machine is the successor (updated model) to its predecessor which lasted at least 30 years but finally stopped registering incoming messages - they just became buzzing. This new machine works well but it was a little tricky to set up. Once the feature (date, time or number of rings before activating the "Outgoing" message) was set, the device would not allow modification and reset. Having now used the machine for a month I will attempt to reset some of the functions again to the…

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

We had the exact same one that lasted 8 years: 2008-2016. A family friend bought it brand new for us in 2008 and finally gave up on it in November 2016. It's easy and fun to create our own funny answering machine greetings on it and I love how you can adjust the volume from loud to soft in 8 different volume levels so you don't wake anyone up or let everyone hear it far away . There are some features that we never use, such as B. Time and date, so I don't know how easy it is to set them up, but

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Minor problems
