I bought this phone because it looked cool, was made by a good company, had all the features i could ask for, and was supposedly better then a digial 900 mhz phone. Well..the phone is a joke. The phone has a hissing in the background that drives you nuts,I constantly have to change channels to talk to anyone for more then 15 min and, and the phone recularly says "out of range" even though im 5 feet away). It's pretty sad, I live in an apartment and you'd think I was down the block the phone acts. The answering machine is horrid as well, sometimes you cant even hear the caller's message, and even my own message is crackled and has hissing in it. Save your money...Dont buy this phone.
