Customer Review: well built but terrible interface and ergonomics
The Philips DETC phone has great sound quality but a terrible display that is difficult to read in sunlight and use as a phone. The controls are not logical and difficult to understand (press the arrow key down to see the last person who called, then up twice to see the previous callers). The biggest disappointment however is the speaker phone option in which the speaker and microphone are so directional you have to keep passing the phone between you if there’s two of you and you’re trying to speak to your family on the other end of the phone.
Customer Review: Stop working in a few weeks
I have this a gift to a friend in Atlanta. She just called me to tell me that it has stopped working over the 4-th of July weekend. It would have been nice if it had lasted a few months instead. I will have to find out how to get it repaired or replaced this week.

Customer Review: Poor instructions
The instruction booklet shows that it is handsfree, that’s even on the box. But no instructions on how to use handsfree. Too much trouble to hunt and peck to find out how it works. Not everyone is a geek.

Customer Review: Run to your nearest BJ’s
I have been wanting a new phone for a while and have been looking at the DECT technology in particular. I was at BJ’s today and found this set for 129.99..no kidding..SIX handsets. So, I snatched it up and came home (then only to read the great reviews of this phone type..much to my relief). I have not used it much yet (I’ve been home about two hours), but set-up was A BREEZE. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the fact that the directory is stored in the base, not the handsets, so when info is entered into one, it’s in them all. This was not available on my last expandable phones which is such a major pain. The two calls I’ve made to my husband were clear as a bell using the handset speakerphone. I have not tested range yet. The handsets are sleek and pretty, and now they’re all over my house. My one tiny disappointment is that the base does not have speakerphone. There have been rare instances where when I’m cooking and have my hands all messy that I find it easiest to press the speakerphone button on the base rather than have to remove a handset from the cradle (if it’s there!) and then press the button. Somehow, I’ll survive, but you can get it sooo much cheaper at BJ’s.

Customer Review: Piece of junk!
I’m not just going to throw these phones away, I’m going to give myself the satisfaction of smashing them to pieces before I do. This thing drops calls left and right, even if I’m standing next to the base. At any given time I can pick one of these units and it’s not getting a signal. Don’t buy this under any circumstances.
Customer Review: DO NOT BUY
I purchased this phone to replace an older Panasonic phone system that was wearing out and I am very sorry to say it is not worth buying, in fact I am going to cut my losses, throw it away and try another product. The range is terrible, I have several of the handsets around my home and one is in direct open line of vision from the base and won’t receive a signal. The only way any of the handsets will work is to pick up when the phone rings and get as close to the base as you can to get a signal. Forget about trying to go outside with it!

Customer Review: Great phone, no battery problems after 6 months
Despite much of the grumbling in these reviews, I have found this phone extremely useful. It has great range, excellent volume & clarity, and a very sleek design. The battery has a good life even though I’ve owned it for six months - I can leave it off the base for 2 days and still have a conversation on it.
