GE 25860GE3 5.8 GHz Dual-Handset Cordless Phone With Call Waiting Caller ID, Digital Messaging System

When I first got this phone set it seemed nice, but that quickly changed. The talk button on the handsets is so sensitive that holding it too tightly to your face will hang up the call. My wife and I have each done this at least a dozen times now. Also the phones redial mode is awkward, it is suppose to know long distance based on Caller ID but it fails to dial correctly half of the time. The phone sometimes will also "lock up". The hand set becomes unresponsive and needs to be placed on the base for a few seconds to reset itself. I am already planning on buying another phone from another company.

These phones are ridiculously hard to hear. I have a daycare in my home and I need a phone I can hear over the dull roar of my house!! This one isn't it!

So far this phone has worked out for us. We can hear clearly and are able to move around our house without problems. The only complaint is that there is no speaker phone and you can't use both handsets at the same time. This may be an oversight on us though.
