All we need at this point is a two line. How it holds up under long term use is yet to be seen, but for the price, if it lasts at least 4 years, I am happy. Ordered this phone to replace a 4 line phone in one our offices. Was holding my breath whether it would work to standards, but the manager in that office is extremely happy with it.
There is a very subtle but annoying ticking sound as the "new call" light flashes, but that can be eliminated by reviewing the new calls display, which then turns off the flashing light. However, the features of this phone work great for me.
I am now waiting for an RMA from Antec. So well that I recently ordered the same phone for another location.
Speakerphone with good sound quality, voice mail indicator, headset jack, speed dial, and mute all work well. It also seemed to pick up radio signals, and occasionally you could hear indistinct voices when the phone was not in use.
I have owned this phone for about a year, and in general I am very satisfied. Also, as others have mentioned, the "beep" as you dial numbers is sort of loud, and cannot be adjusted.
That phone unfortunately had a distinct crackling from the speaker that occurred randomly.
Unfortunately, that was only a matter of months. This wasn't an extremely expensive phone but I would have never paid as much as I did had I known its shelf life was less than some products that are advertised as disposable. Everything about this phone was great while it lasted. Now I'm using a terrible old phone and looking for something that works.With all of the companies trying to persuade customers how "green" they are, it would be nice to find one that makes a product that doesn't have to be pitched into a landfill within months.
Easy to use, memory dialing, and call waiting caller ID. We had a hard time finding a good two-line phone, but this is it. Everything we needed.
But I bought the set BECAUSE of its alleged headset support. I hooked up my Plantronics headset that had been working with another phone, but it did not work. The documentation did not help, so I called customer support. All the features seemed to work.
I'll be returning this product straight-away. If he is representative of RCA customer support, I recommend no one buying from that company. After a painful call of confusion, complaints (about me and the company from him), and excuses, he informs me there is no list of supported headsets that will work and that I shouldn't count on that feature. I should have paid attention to the negative reviews. I'll admit, if I didn't need headset support and didn't have to deal with RCA customer support, I would be happy as a clam. Setup was easy. I tried everything I knew to no avail.
I certainly will not. I bought this phone thinking it had all the features I needed for my home office. When I set up the phone, it worked great. Normally customer support lines have a routine of greetings and questions, but this dullard did not.
