I bought the MD7161 and three extra handsets eight months ago. I have no complaints about thier functionality, but one by one the keypads have died - first the numbers then the dial and answer buttons. When the first one went, I put it in the garage thinking maybe just one was defective. Now I have to buy a new system, since I can only dial out on one of the four handsets.I purchased one of the extra handsets seperately at Target and its keypad is dead as well, so it wasn't just a bad batch from one run. They may make very sylish doorstops, but don't buy these or any other Motorola units if plan on using them to make calls.
