Excellent phones. Design is very impressive, hand held receivers are very light and numbers on keypad are easy to use. My order was delivered on date promised. I am very pleased with this product and would definitely order from this company again.

Customer Review: Good phone. A couple of odd omissions
So far (only had it a few days) this has been a great phone. Sound is clear, the intercom feature is wonderful, it does a good job with caller ID, and the buttons and menus are reasonably easy to use.
I have a handful of nitpicks; I list them here figuring Uniden probably reads these reviews. They do if they are smart, anyway.
1. The range is pretty decent, but another 20 feet would have allowed me to put the base in a better place in my house.
2. The manual says the batteries will need to be replaced after a year.. A year for a rechargeable battery? Come on, guys. Given that we have to buy the batteries from Uniden (since there’s a special connector for them, don’t you know) that’s a bit of a screw. Use **standard battery bays** and have a rechargeable battery that has a long life. If I’d known this one before I bought, it might have convinced me not to buy. This “special battery” thing is why I didn’t give it 5 stars.
3. There doesn’t seem to be a way to tell a handset to ignore calls. I want to be able to switch any given handset OFF, the equivalent of unplugging an extension. Options seem to be to take the battery out or move the phone out of range. How about you implement holding down the Hangup button for 5 seconds or something, to turn off the ringer and block the intercom? Or at LEAST a vibrate-on-ring feature? Something people can sleep through?
4. The phonebook could be bigger, and - major point - the base should have a USB connector so I can download the phone book and caller id history to a PC. If the batteries are going to die after a year, I’d rather not lose the phonebook.
5. When I capture caller ID into the phone book, I may have to edit it (adding or removing a 1 in front, etc.) There’s an obscure way to add or delete a 1 from a number when it’s in the caller ID history (the * key), but being able to edit the phonebook in general (other than deleting digits and retyping) would be nice.
6. There should be a way to tell the handset that Privacy Mode is the default for all calls. This could be critical in a small business office.
7. “Precautions! Before you read anything else, please observe the following”. This is on page 53 of the manual. If you want it read first, it ought to be on page 1, don’t you think?
8. The bases could be heavier. It’s too easy to knock a phone over from the side, and then it’s not charging. Cats, you know. They do it on purpose. Spiteful little creatures with evil agendas… but, um, back to the topic.
All that said: I love the fact that the handsets flash when there’s a new message waiting, and being able to manage the messages from any handset or external call. I love the intercom and speakerphone mode. I like being able to copy the phonebook between handsets. The controls are about as intuitive as any complicated device can be. Range and sound are good. I bought the 5-handset version, based on the reliability to date of my old Uniden 900Mhz cordless (still in service and covering the one corner of my house this new unit doesn’t quite reach). If the phones hold up that well, this will have been a good deal.
Addendum: not a big deal for me, but it will bug some people - you can set distinctive ring for caller id calls. Great feature. But there are only 4 melodies you can assign: Für Elise, Aura Lee (?!), Star Spangled Banner (??!) and We Wish You a Merry Christmas. (??!?!) I can hardly think of four stranger choices, and there’s no way to load new ones in. And only 3 generic ringing noises to round out the set…
