The Uniden TRU9485 5.8 GHz Cordless phone is really like adding two phone to your home, office, etc. Thanks to the extension handset, you can add a phone anywhere there is an AC power outlet (to charge the handset). No need to run extra phone wiring through your house! I've even got one in my garage!
The phone system performs incredibly well. Sound is as crisp and clear as you will get from a cordless phone! Each handset has a built-in speaker phone for hands free use. The displays on the handsets and base are well lighted and easy to read.
Unlike some of the cheaper multiple handset phones, you can talk on both handsets at once. This is great when talking with relatives during the holidays! You can even add extra extension handsets (uo to 10 total handsets.)
The base functions as a full featured answering machine with all the bells and whistles, but it also is a speaker phone that you can talk on without a handset.
Each handset plus the base has a 100 number memory and they are independent so you don't have to store the same numbers on all three. You could use the base as your main home phone and use the extension handset as your home office phone. The main handset could keep your personal numbers in the memory while the extension handset could keep all your business numbers. Neat idea!
There is also in intercom feature that lets you call from handset to handset, handset to base, or base to handset.
When you don't want to be bothered, the base has a do not disturb button. There are 20 options for different ringtones. You can even set it up to display and talk to you in three languages - English, Spanish or French.
There are more features, but it would take a small book to describe them all. Put it this way - this phone has all you could ask for in a phone!
Definitely a recommended buy! And a great gift for the holidays, too.
