The Vtech CS5121-2 has a built-in digital answering system that has 15 minutes of recording time. With an all-digital design, there are no tapes to mess with and you can easily jump from one message to another without any wait. With remote message retrieval, you can call in from anywhere to get your messages. A backlit message counter clearly shows you how many messages you've received. Users can choose from a set of ringtones to personalize their phone. The handset fits comfortably in the hand, and the phone includes a wall mount bracket for placement options.

It is a great phone. I've not heard any static at all, even when I take it with me down the road to my neighbors' house. The answering machine works fine. I can retrieve my new messages from a remote location with no problems. This saves monthly charges for voice mail. When I misplace one of the receivers, I can press "find phone" and they all call home! It held all my numbers in the directory and has speed dial as well for frequently called numbers. The only improvement I could make would be a color display, but functionally, for the price, it is excellent. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By NF Hockey Fan (Maine) - See all my reviews This review is from: V-Tech CS5121-2 5.8GHz Two Handset Cordless Answering System with Caller ID (Silver/Black) (Office Product) Adequate range but the answering machine sounds like "adults in a Charley Brown TV Special." We've tried two after returning the first -- the result is the same: The family gathers around the answering machine to play the messages and guess who might have left the message. Half of the messages are completely garbled and distorted.
Try anything else but this! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: By GK (San Diego, ca USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: V-Tech CS5121-2 5.8GHz Two Handset Cordless Answering System with Caller ID (Silver/Black) (Office Product) First off, This phone sounds terrible to the person on the other end. Secondly, sometimes the dialer skips numbers. So you push a button and the number shows up on the display, but there is no tone and the number is not dialed. on the plus side, the answering system seems to work just fine. This would be ok if you just got messages and never called anybody back because using this phone will upset you and others around you. Several people have asked me to please replace my phone and now that I'm reviewing this, I can't believe I kept it so long. Oh yeah and the batteries die really fast. I plan to throw these handsets into the trash with some used diapers so no one will be tempted to turn on these pieces of junk junk junk again. |
