General Electric Digital Answering Machine

Date of Review:  Apr 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: A product that offers more than I need in features. excellent. cheaper than voicemail.
Review: While I love my cellphone, I keep a land line that's hardwired into the wall for emergencies. I try to keep the cost on this line as low as possible as its used primarily for emergencies. In order to keep the cost down, I have an answering machine...

Great Answering Machine!

Date of Review:  Jun 6, 2005
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this answering machine, it is by far the best available for the price.
Review: I purchased this machine about 5 years ago and It has always worked perfectly. It is quite durable, as it has fallen several times and I have spilled numerous beverages on it!!

The voice clarity is excellent, you can even record music on...

IT JUST KEEPS ANSWERING AND ANSWERING AND...

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: For approximately $30.00 retail price and for all it's features, buy it, try it and if not satisfied (how could you not be?), return the item. You can't lose.
Review: After having sworn off the local telephone company VoiceMail service many, many years ago after taking inventory of just how much I would spend over the years of use, I've been sticking with answering machines ever since. Starting with my very first...

Not SBC DSL compatible

Date of Review:  Aug 2, 2007
Review: This machine worked okay until I had SBC DSL installed. Even with a filter on the line, it absolutely won't record incoming messages. The phone rings the specified number of times, the answering machine begins to pick up the call then beeps and...

Worked Fine with SBC DSL

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2007
Review: Nice unit for not much money ($40 delivered). I needed the multiple mailboxes for my home/businesses and this did the trick. After ordering it I read the reviews here and several said it would not work with SBC (now ATT) DSL and I thought I had...

Date of Review:  Oct 12, 2005
Review: I think it would be an excellent answering machine if only it would work with broadband internet service. What's more, their tech people do not acknowledge the problem. They finally decided I must have a defective unit. I disproved that by setting...

Review: I don t understand the other two reviews as I have two of these answering machines and they both work great and have for over two year now. I did have one fail about 2-1/2 years ago but it still answered and recorded you just could not record a new...

Do not buy.

Date of Review:  Aug 10, 2006
Review: Sound quality is extreamly poor. Often enters a state when power off is required. In this states buttons do not work and there is no indication that machine is offline. It's a shame that GE puts its brand name on this crap. I tried a cheaper GE. It...

Great features, poor reliability

Date of Review:  Jun 1, 2004
Review: In terms of features & price, this answering machine is one of the best deals you can get. With 4 separate mailboxes and 40 minutes of digital recording time, what's not to love, right?

Well, after less than a year of use, the answering...
