I have left it off the charger for 2 or more days and it's still ready to go. I purchased 4 of these phones and it was the best phone purchase I ever made. I have given this phone as gifts three times. When it needs charging I just pick up another phone. It has good sound, memory and is easy to use. It has good battery life, I've never counted the hours, but the phones claims 17 hours and I believe it.
Also, this unit gives us clear reception with no apparent interference from wireless network which was a problem with our previous phone. Easy to setup with lots of useful features such as copying base unit address book to other units with the push of a few buttons.
ft. All in all, though, this phone seems to work fine except for the things I've mentioned, but if you have a large house, I definitely would not recommend it because of the range problem. This phone had some major inadequacies, one that was a deal breaker, and several that were big disadvantages compared to the phone it was supposed to replace. This has never been a problem with any other phone I've had, so I don't think it's inherent in the house, which is about 3,000 sq. Other disadvantages compared to the other phone: the digital numbers were difficult to read, not only because of their rather primitive configuration but also because of the orange background and the light gray print; there was no full color; the only readout was in the handset, i.e., there was no additional readout on the base itself so if the handset is somewhere else, you can't see who is calling; there is no indication of whether there are messages or how many there are (you have to push "messages" to find out); there was no voice announcement of the incoming call's number, which is really handy when you're across the room from the phone. So I'm sending the phone back and looking for one just like the one I'm replacing, which, by the way, has finally started acting weird after about eight years of use. That makes me think it probably wouldn't reach outside either, which my other phone did fine. The deal breaker was that the handset in my bedroom was out of range from the base in the living room.
Otherwise, this has served us well for at least three years, which is better than some other appliances/electronics. One phone is in our bedroom and the other in the basement room so the one from the base is on the main floor. We got this one at BJ's when we were members and has served us well. However, I do like that you can pick up messages from the phone itself and it shows when you have messages. I don't like that you can turn off the answering machine system with a touch of the button on the top of the base, and this recently happened and took a minute to figure out. It rarely needs charging even after several days being off the base. My husband & I have a had several portable phones and this is by far the best one. I need to get an extender phone, but it seems kind of expensive.half the cost of the full system.
My husband hates using it as an answering machine, and he never plays the messages. I'm not crazy about the audible phone message system, but it's ok. Would like it if it displayed the number of messages. Right now we have wall jack issues even though we get all of our service through our cable provider so we have the base in the second bedroom, which serves as an office.
These are easier to setup and use (the on handset menu system could have been more intuitive). Crisp & Clear voice quality, great feature set and their durable build make this cordless package optimal for everybody looking for a cordless phone system.
