Base units offer charging only, so all call features are accessed through the handsets using simple, intuitive menus. Basic handset features include 10 number memory dialing, intercom between handsets, even three-way conferencing with both units being able to talk simultaneously to a third party. Each handset also features a three-line backlit LCD, which allows access to caller ID functions, and stores up to 40 name/number memory locations. Interchangeable faceplates, belt clips, and optional handsets expand versatility even further.
What's in the box?
2 handsets with interchangeable faceplates, 2 charging cradles with AC adapters, 2 batteries, 2 belt clips, 1 telephone line cord, owner's manual, warranty information

Schaffer (Mountain View, CA United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Southwestern Bell GH4000MS 2.4 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Caller ID (Stainless Steel) (Office Product) This phone is a really(!) good concept. The base unit is the only part which needs to be near a jack. Any of the (up to 4) handsets, then, only need to have their charging stands near an electrical outlet. This makes the system excellent for older homes and apartments with a limited number of telephone jacks, which often are in out-of-the-way places.The phone has an amazing range, and works quite well in my 2-level home, even though there is much structural steel in the walls. After 2-months of use, I have yet to have a bad/static-y connection. My only(!) negative comment is with the Caller-ID redial "feature". I live in CA, where 1+dialing is a requirement when using area codes. There is no way to set the area code in the phone system (according to customer service), as the phone automatically senses the area code. However, the phone doesn't automatically strip out the area code for local calls, nor append "1" to the beginning of the dialing string for out of area calls...Read more 1 of 2 people found the following review helpful: By DJR "DJR" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Southwestern Bell GH4000MS 2.4 GHz DSS Expandable Cordless Phone with Dual Handsets and Caller ID (Stainless Steel) (Office Product) I do not like this phone. The option selections are not very intuitive. The volume on the headset seems to go down every time you hang up the phone. The next time you answer you have to turn it back up to hear the caller. |
