They say it will match your existing system. It won't! After many calls to their help line, I gave up. Each time you call they gave you a different course of action. First they tell you it's not compatible. Then when you point out it should be, they tell you to send the whole system in for repair. Not willing to send in the other two handsets and base station for repair when they work. Plus I would be without a phone for who knows how long. Just don't buy it.

I bought one of these to go with the set that we got a few years ago. No problem getting it to work with the others. They all work well together for an inexpensive set. No complaints but some day we will go for a real office set of phones when the economy will pay for it. for right now we get about 25 calls a day on the 4 phones. the batteries last about 6 months to 1 year dependent upon use.

I've seen the discouraging reviews of these phones and handsets. We carefully started with the base phone and two handsets, half expecting failure. But not so. They have worked fine for a couple months. And now we've added two extra handsets and they have begun to perform with no difficulty other than the challenge of following the directions to get them added to the system. Furthermore all the numbers on the buttons are of large enough size that they are useable by a person in his late eighties with a serious essential tremor. While we're not (yet?) using many features, the system performs without a flaw, over a wide area, and at a cost that is amazing.
