Thank you. Otherwise, I am completely satisfied. I understand what is meant by the dial being slow. Panasonic has been most reliable to me in their phones. I found in my research that no one is entirely satisfied with any of the phones currently offered, as evidenced by the reviews all over the map on each of them.
Amazon is my favorite online shopping source and has never disappointed me. The obvious remedy is to be a little more deliberate and slow as you dial instead of lightning fast and overwhelming the phone (it's a small adjustment anyone can make). So my choice was hit or miss. This telephone replaces an old AT&T model and was selected because my cordless phones are all Panasonic and have served me well. After one month, I can say that this phone adequately serves my purpose (a corded back-up to my cordless lines since we have occasional power outages and the possibility of an extended outage due to hurricanes).
I have not used the answering machine yet (my other phone supplies the message center).
I now have a lot more room on my desk as this takes the place of 3 separate machines. It doesn't have a back-up battery so after powerfailure is more work, but am overall very pleased. I purchased this phone to replace an ancient one at work, along with one of the first digital recorders ever made. I am very happy with this product, easy to set up, easy to use.
Not many options in my community so having options online makes a HUGE difference. Hubby even likes it. Did a lot of research and settled on this phone. Many other folks reviewed and had great things to say about Panasonic items.
The viewing screen is too small and the color makes it hard to read. Though my wife has a hearing deficit, the volume control is adequate. ASIN:Panasonic KX-TS620W: This telephonse is working satisfactorily. To utilize the screen, one must pick up the entire phone and move it closer to one's eyes under an especially bright lamp.
Also, there is no battery back-up in case of a power outage.The value just isn't there, for the amount of money paid, or a high recommendation. BUT. This digital answering machine, speaker phone is pricey for a one line phone. The phone and answering machine work fine and the sound quality is very good. I'm disappointed that the LED Display is practically unreadable and should light up so you can see the time or information.
