Product Description
The KX-TG6074B is an expandable digital cordless answering system with 4 handsets.When a call comes in, this phone doesn't just let you see who's calling, it actually tells you who's calling with Talking Caller ID. Using text-to-speech technology, the caller's name is announced between rings if name/number Caller ID information is available.With SlowTalk message playback, you'll never miss important information again. You can slow down the playback speed of recorded messages by 30 percent at the touch of a button. And with this system's all-digital answering system, those messages will already be crystal clear and easy to retrieve, with up to 18 minutes of recording time.By simulating a band signal above and below the normal bandwidth limitations, Voice Enhancer Technology helps clarify and improve sound reception creating a natural-sounding voice that is easy to hear and understand.

Fantastic.......2008-01-01
Speakerphone not as great as I had hoped, but that's my only concern. Love the intercom feature to call from room to room.
Great Phones.......2007-12-29
I got these about 5 months ago and they have been working great! I highly recommend these phones.
Panasonic does it again.......2007-12-27
The Panasonic 6074 had the features I wanted with a brand name I trust. In particular, the talking caller ID allows us to keep about our activities without having to look at a display to read that it is yet another telemarketer. The intercom feature is a bit unusual in that I have to select a particular handset to call rather than simply ringing all handsets to locate a person. I suppose that would be more appropriate if a phone were in a particular bedroom, etc.
Sound quality is good, and the speakerphone function is better than expected. I dare suggest Panasonic has caught up to AT&T sound quality, and in my opinion have always exceeded them in reliability.
a great household unit.......2007-12-26
Bought the KX-TG6074B as a replacement for our V-Tech system, which lasted only just over a year! The Panasonic seems to be of quite good quality - feels solid, charges easily, and is pretty straightforward to use. The speakerphone capability in each handset is actually quite handy as well. Very happy with purchase.
Nice features........2007-12-26
We especially like the speakerphone feature. We could all chat together over the holidays, rather than have to run to different rooms to pick up the extensions. The intercom is also a neat feature. A great way to call the kids for dinner, or if you have to ask a question. We like the voice caller ID. I can ignore the phone and let the kids pick up when their friends call.

Pretty good little phone........2007-12-29
We bought these phones with two more handsets for use in our business. The range and clarity are great, as well as the intuitive controls. I guess the only beef I have with it is that when you are on line 1 and line 2 rings, the sound cuts out with the ring tone. This is especially anoying when speaking with a customer. Even with this drawback, I would buy this phone again!
Great phones!.......2007-12-25
We really like these phones. The work well, battery life is great. And there are lots of good features!
awesome phone system.......2007-12-22
I am really picky about my phones. I had not seen this system in person only on the internet. Not only am I pleased, I am thrilled. This phone gives you all you really need. It is so convenient. You can pick up a message from any hand set by just hitting a few buttons. No more running to the answer machine. The voice and hearing quality is excellent. Speakerphone is great as well. It does everything I need it to. I have it in a 2500 Sq ft. home and no sound quality issues anywhere. That really does depend on your homes wiring and other wireless equipment. i have cable and wireless internet and it does not have any affect on the system. I highly reccomend this phone, If I'm happy you'll be happy, just ask my wife!!!!!
a little disappointed, just an average phone and answering system.......2007-12-07
The sound quality is just OK during conversation. Answering system outgoing message is actually quite poor sound quality. I have had several other phone systems with much better sound quality. It really lacks features for such an expensive phone/answering system. It does NOT have a paging feature, so you have no way of knowing if a message is left, except to keep calling home to see. There is no feature to allow each line to ring only certain handsets, so the business line rings in your bedroom, like it or not. Then there are the feature buttons that are recessed. They are hard to push, they are soft rubber and you have to push the button just right to activate the line choice or feature you're trying to activate, and it's difficult. The phones have a light that is lite all the time, yet if you choose to have the blinking lite alert you of a message, that uses battery power... doesn't having the light on all the time use up battery power? The handsets are long and skinny, hard to hold and you can't rest it on your shoulder. I wish I knew more about the phone before I purchased it. Not having the paging feature is really a handicap for me. How can I let people know I'm going to call them back within a couple hours if I have to keep calling home to see if anyone has even called, which I'm sure I'm going to remember to do all the time,since I have so much time and cell minutes to waste for nothing most of the time. I just think it's a lot of money for a very basic phone system. The only really decent feature is that you can add handsets, and oh yea, it's 5.8ghz so it's less likely to interfere with my home wireless network.
Declutter your desk.......2007-12-04
Our Panasonic KX-TG6702B dual line cordless phone system works flawless. We had a Panasonic single line cordless system before and knew what to expect. The dual line system eliminates the other phone from your desk and helps to declutter office. In our micro enterprise we got four handsets for receptionist, accounts, art director, workshop. We use one line for outgoing calls to keep the other line open for incoming calls. The intercom is a great feature to communicate between offices as well as to forward calls. Best of all you don't need to run ugly phone lines all over the place. Phone lines are plugged into central unit only while the daughter handsets only need a regular power wall outlet to recharge batteries. The phone's design is smaller and looks more professional than our old system.
Reach is in most cases fully satisfactory as long as you don't work/live in a bunker of concrete and steel.
We have not used the built-in answering machine due to voice mail from our provider.

Good Phone.......2007-10-27
We are using 5 of these cordless handsets all over the house, in conjunction with the base unit (KX-TGA4500B), with no interference problem. Another great feature about the handsets is that they don't have to be wired; just plugged in! Also, the recommended headset (KX-TCA86) works well with the both the base and handset) and is very inexpensive.
As Advertised.......2007-09-14
So far this system is working well for us. Wish there are more options such as more flexible extension numbers, etc.
Excellent follow on model.......2007-03-29
We used a previous version of this system for years. This much improved system handles even the tiny wishes we had from the old system. Music on hold, speaker phones, great range, etc. I actually bought multiple systems and tried them in my offices. I returned them all except the Panasonic.
panasonic cordless phone.......2007-03-10
Big disappointment. Unlike previous Panasonic phones that have always been 'slightly ahead of their time' this phone is difficult to use and there are too many steps involved to make or take a simple phone call. It's designed as badly as MS software. One of the annoying features is you have to hold the button down for almost 3 seconds to take a call on hold - it's a mess. Stay away.

Sound is great. Ease of use is wonderful. The guys in our shop have not complained once and we have had the phones for over a month!

Works Great!.......2007-10-06
Matched my existing Panasonic phone set and worked like a charm. I have two extra handsets and the base unit. Amazon was the best price and had super saver shipping to boot!
expandable headset .......2007-09-11
I was disappointed to find that a belt clip is not included with the headset! I had to order it as an accessory after I received the headset, and the shipping charge was more than the price of the belt clip. :(

Stay away from this one.......2007-12-06
We have been using the Panasonic 4 -line wireless phone system to run our home businesses for over 5 years. The original KX-TG4000 -- 2.4 ghz system worked really well. The problem however was that our wireless router created an audible interference, static in the cordless units.
So we "Upgraded" to the new Panasonic KX-TG4500 - 5.8 Ghz system. The new frequency works well with NO interference no static with our wireless router. The audio signal is quiet and static free on the cordless units.
The answering machine on this upgraded unit is terrible. It cuts off voice mail messages of callers. Typically it cuts off the last second or two of the phone message while they are leaving a phone number. After two replacement machines, a dozen support calls, and numerous attempts at resetting the VOX SENSITIVITY, and the AUTO DISCONNECT settings (settings which are totally hidden and buried if it wasn't for support telling me where these settings were, I would not even know about them.) I am giving up, resigning myself to living with a piece of S#%* phone machine that cuts off messages. I will buy a new one, a different brand as soon as I can find one.
I would NOT recommend for anyone to buy this phone system. For the $1000 we have invested in the system for our home office, I am certain there is a better product out there. But it is not the Panasonic KX-TG4500 nor the cordless units KX-TGA450. Stay away from this one.
Panasonic KX-TG4500B 5.8 GHz 4-Line Expandable Cordless.......2007-11-02
Loved the phone, has excellent reception so I did not agree with some of the other reviews that was posted who mentioned that the phone had poor reception.
The only negative thing I had to say about the phone is that you can not program your own ext. number. So if I wanted my ext. number to be 11, I can not do that.
Overall, very good phone system!.......2007-10-27
We needed a multi-line phone, and once you get past 2 lines, the choices are very limited. This phone has many good features, but could use some improvements. First, when listening to voicemail, it would be helpful to know which line the call came in from. Second, while you can record your own 'on hold' music, the sound quality is very poor, rendering that feature pretty much useless. Third (and maybe a bit picky), while 7 different ringer styles are offered, they're not very good. Also, as mentioned in other reviews, the ability of the person you're talking to being able to hear you clearly, is sometimes an issue. However, it is still a good phone overall, and we are able to use the separate cordless handsets (KX-TGA 450B), all over the house with no interference problem. Another great feature about the handsets is that they don't have to be wired; just plugged in! Also, the recommended headset (KX-TCA86) works well with the both the base and handset) and is very inexpensive.
piece of junk.......2007-10-26
I work from home and need a good 3-line phone for the house. After using the previous generation 4000 for about five years and experiencing the (apparently typical) problems with #1 and general quality, I decided to spring for the new version.
I was excited about new features like mute (surprisingly absent from the 4000) and speaker phone on the handsets, and figured the newer version would fix some of the general quality issues I had with the 4000.
All I can say is that this phone is a piece of junk. It is cheap, poorly constructed, and doesn't feel at all like a commercial-grade or even high-quality consumer product. Speaker phone is horrible, range is poor, call quality is bad from the base unit or handsets. Almost every conversation I have, at some point the other party asks me to speak up, or couldn't hear me or whatever.
I'm returning this phone immediately and trying the RCA product, which has gotten some bad reviews also. If that doesn't work, I don't know where to turn.
What I can't hear you........2007-08-09
Spent all this money on this phone and the volume is very low when you are on it. I purchased two additional handsets and two headsets for my business. When you are speaking on the phone, customers complain that you are talking to low and that they cannot hear you.
I like all the features on the phone but hate the reception and the fact that I have to talk loudly for someone to hear me. Would not buy another one. I called Panasonic and they basically told me that I would have to pay to get another phone. Wow. Amazon may have lost a customer to a local retailer.

Works As Advertised.......2007-12-21
This phone extension works very well and integrated with the base station without incident. Vonage is my phone service and this phone works well with it.
Awesome telephone!!.......2007-11-25
I purchased the AT&T Expansion Headset for my AT&T base phone system. I now have the AT&T base phone system with two additional headsets throughout my house. The look of the phone is excellent and clarity and cleariness when speaking on the phone is wonderful! If you are looking for a great phone system then this model and the base phone system I highly recommend.
AT&T E598-1.......2007-11-04
I needed to add an extension to my AT&T E2562 and the E598-1 is the specified component. It was easy to install and works perfectly. The Amazon price was very close to the best price and I know their reputation is excellent and I've bought from them before and never had a problem.
AT&T E598-1 - 5.8 GHz Digital Cordless Expansion Handset .......2007-10-17
Bought the complete AT&T system with three sets included. Because it worked so well I added the fourth handset. I specifically bought the one that goes with my unit. It is the exactly the same as my original three sets and works well. The only complaint is that for some reason and unlike the other three sets you cannot access the menu from this unit but everything else seems to work fine including caller ID.
Expanded my system without a problem.........2007-10-09
I believe I expanded a 6012B system (it looks almost exactly the same as the E598 handset) from two to four without a hitch. Frankly, I chose this expansion handset (and the original handsets) because I liked how they looked (e.g., sort of a sleek, minimal handset design with blue key lighting), but both the original and the expansions have performed solidly (e.g., calls don't drop with good quality voice, decent range, and battery life).
Just be sure to determine the maximum number of handsets your original system will handle before you buy any expansion handsets.

Features, features, features.......2007-10-30
We had been shopping for a phone which has lighted numerals AND caller ID. Good luck with that! Uniden has these features and more in this phone. GREAT JOB! We have had this for a week now, so we are still learning how to navigate through everything this does. The fact that it floats doesn't mean beans to me. It would be a cool feature, if you need an aquatic telephone, I guess. The lighted numerals were important for us for use as a bedroom phone. Most cell phones light up in the dark, so why don't more regular phone manufacturers offer this feature?? Anyway, we are happy with our purchase!
Improved so much..........2007-10-07
Compared to the previous model, WXI377, which I've owed for over two years, this model fulfilled most of my wishes what the older model lacked...
For example, 5.8GHz digital spread spectrum is much more secure than the old 900MHz analog. Now the keyboard is also backlighted as well as the display. The onboard speaker is nice and comes in handy. You can expand the phone to have more handset(TWX977 will give you the very same handset) and have features like transferring a call, page, intercom and conferencing, etc. Phonebook has much larger capacity, and now you can store two numbers per name, and personalize the ring tone...
Some same old problems still exist. The old WXI377 when it was submerged in bathtub, the cavity around the earpiece speaker would be filled with water that blocked the sound. I had to shake it vigorously get the water out, otherwise the volume would so low it was hard to hear the other party. The new model is still the same way, and shaking the water out would take more effort, seems to me. The chain dialing still only works when in a call(when you are connected, you can bring up the phonebook and dial another number. Works well for dialing a phone card access number first, then the real phone number from your phonebook). If you start by keying in a few digits, like "#0P"(I have a 2-line switch, #0 will access my other line. P is for a 1-second pause), you can't get in the phonebook and bring up another number onto the screen to concatenate them together then dial all at once...
The one area it screwed up is the redial number. On the old phone when you display the number by pressing Redial, you can hit Delete button to delete the last digit by each press. So you can edit the number by getting rid of the extra digits last time you entered when on hold and "press 1 go to this menu" or "press 2 for voicemail", etc. The new model does not allow you to edit the redial number. Hit Delete will wipe out the the entire line. This is the only problem I can remember now, that doesn't exist on the old model before...
no problems so far.......2007-09-12
A decent phone for around the pool. Happy to have something that we don't have to worry if it gets wet. Very good sound and voice quality.
Pool Phone.......2007-09-12
This product is WONDERFUL! We've even dropped it into the swimming pool and it keeps on going & going. My husband & I are very pleased with our purchase.
POOL telephone.......2007-09-09
This telephone should be a REQUIREMENT for anyone who wants a wireless telephone that can ACTUALLY be used outside or anywhere that is wet. Worked excellently upon receipt and in all locations since getting it and being placed into service. Plus, it still works after I dropped it into the pool a couple of weeks ago. Also this telephone "FLOATS" in water.

Distance a problem.......2007-12-27
This phone works fine if you don't go too far from the base or charger unit...it has problems going thru walls and making curves...I wouldn't recommend this phone unless you plan on staying by the base.
Good.......2007-12-27
I am happy with the product but not sure about the extended range. Has some noise as distance from base increases.
Noisy.......2007-11-30
I don't like this phone, it some times has noise, even though being very near from the base.
Works fine.......2007-10-01
I've had this phone for several months and have had no problems. The range is quite good if there are no buildings in the way. Outperforms my earlier phones by a wide margin. Clear sound. I have no need for features beyond talking and listening, so gadget lovers might look elsewhere.

Excellent handset.......2007-12-12
This is simply an excellent handset.
We use them in an anodizing plant where many, many regular wireless handsets have met their demise.
This unit will float on top of the tanks and still work.
Another great feature is that it has a decent audio level. You can actually hear people talking at the other end without going in the office. This is something that we've never experienced before.
A perfect handset for any hostile environment.
Phone near water? Get this phone.......2007-11-23
I have purchased two of these handsets and recommend them highly.
The first was purchased as a master bathroom handset to my existing uniden digital 5.8 MHz expandable system. Its been a great phone to use in the wet space... near the bath and near the steam shower. It's a worry free for when you're wet and still need to be accessible. We've also used the monitor feature on this handset as a baby monitor when in the outside hottub.
The second phone was purchased for my parents who have a uniden phone system at their vacation home. They've lost a standard extenion phone in the pool and we replaced it with the waterproof twx977. We should have had one there in the first place.
Works flawlessly - just like any Uniden 5.8Mhz digital handset. Well made and solid. Floats if dropped into water and supports both 1 line and 2 line systems.
Only one drawback is the lack of a headset jack -- But that's not a big deal for its intended outdoor or wet use. I don't know of any waterproof telephone headsets to match with it.
If you need a waterproof phone, get this one.
If you don't have a uniden system yet -- get one!
Not perfect, but good.......2007-11-10
First, the bad....
It's HUGE. Not a sleek or sexy phone by any stretch of the imagination. This thing is all function, no style.
Calls are quiet on both ends. So speak up and listen carefully!
Intercom feature requires too many buttons and takes too long too "think."
A little light flashes when you have voicemail. Can barely see it in a bright room. No other indication (like "Voicemail" written on the LCD screen).
No option to erase all your calls received in one fell swoop. Have to delete them one by one.
Cheesy very low resolution LCD display. Not too excited about the color orange as the chosen backlight.
Something about the key setup isn't quite right. The soft keys and the dedicated keys just don't flow...needs some rearranging. Phonebook is a dedicated key, liked it better as a soft key on my old phone. Redial is a soft key, liked it better as a dedicated key on my old phone. But that's just me being picky.
The directions in the manual for connecting the base unit with an accessory waterproof handset are incorrect. I don't remember how to do it exactly, but you have to look it up on Uniden's website.
You can't turn on the speaker phone until you're actually IN a call. It's not able to switch over before dialing or while ringing. So after you speak with the person you can switch to speakerphone. That's really lame.
THE GOOD....
The thing takes a beating, that's for sure. Like I said, function, not style. If you're looking for a sturdy phone, this is the one. I don't have a pool, but read a lot of reviews that it leaks in the water. I use it as an office phone at my home office. I move around a lot, inside and outside as I work. I'm very active and busy throughout the day. I drop it or it falls off my belt. I screwed up my old phone doing this, so this one is a god send in that respect.
Being so big, is actually fits quite comfortably on my shoulder so I can type with both hands while on the phone.
Sound quality is good, just quiet.
Like being able to creat a personalized banner on each phone, so I can label them. I have two, the base unit and an accessory handset.
Nice loud ringer, which is what I need. It has a lot of nice musical options for ringers, like a cell phone. One of my clients thought it was an icecream truck outside the first time she heard it.
I LOVE the one-touch dialing for voicemail. After setting it up, you hit one button and your voicemail is dialed and the password entered. Nice!
wireless phone.......2007-10-27
the uniden phone works with the other cordless phones that I already had. this unit is for the outside porch and it had to be able work in damp conditions without harming it. it is submersible and work perfect, even though it has no phone line to it.
Takes whatever you can dish out.......2007-10-05
This phone, though a bit heavy and bulky, is the best outdoor/work environment phone I have ever owned. It handles drops, water, mud, and so far, anything elde we have thrown its way. Its range is exceptional and the features are very useful. It was easy to setup and holds a charge well.

Customer Reviews:
Great phone! very easy to use and cool features.......2007-12-28
I recently had to replace the household phones and ended up getting this set to replace the ones that got fried in a bad storm that we had.
I'm very satisfied with these phones. They are great!
Pros:
Sleak looking, and functional!
Speaker phone on handsets is great and clear.
Hold function is a great add!
Voicemail playback on the handsets (makes life all the easier!)
Headset plugin on handsets
long battery life
program your contacts on one phone and copy them to the rest of the handsets (I love this feature, no need to program the same information 3 or more times, just send the contacts to the other phones in a couple steps.)
Ringer and volume settings (very easy to adjust the volume in all areas of the phone as well as very easy to change the ringer to something else as well)
Caller ID and Phone book browsing: click the appropriate easy to find button then just go up or down, it's that simple. in the phone book you can press the key that corresponds to the letter and find that entry faster.
Expandable to 10 handsets (very nice for me as we have a large house and may need to add another handset or 2)
Cons: This is the reason for my 4 star rating.
I've noticed that on a lot of new phones they don't work well with all of the phone systems for caller ID redialing. If someone calls you out of your area code this phone will not allow for a 1 to be placed in front of that number. There is no setting to activate this feature or deactivate it. The only plus side to this problem is that if some one from your local calling area calls you can actiave an option to take out your local area code from the number so it will just dial the main 7 digits. But you have to write down out of area calls and redial them adding a 1 infront of the number.
I find the lack of a feature for this rather inconsiderate for a lot of users. What is even more rediculous is that I have yet to find a newer phone that has the ability to place the 1 before the number. Not every area of the US allows for a 1 to not be used yet, my area included. They added the ability to take the area code out so why can't they add the ability to add or not add the 1 before long distance numbers.
If it weren't for all the other great features of this phone I would have sent it back.
I hope this review was helpful to you as a potential purchaser of this phone.
I only give them 4 stars because it seems that no one wants to give you the option to either have a 1 in front of the number or not.
Be warned: Uniden phones pulled the finish off our furniture! .......2007-12-27
STAY AWAY FROM THESE UNIDEN PHONES! THEY ECHOED DURING USE - WHO WANTS TO HEAR YOUR OWN VOICE ECHOING BACK AT YOU? BUT WORSE - WHEN WE MOVED THE PHONES TO DUST, THE TWO CHARGING UNITS PULLED THE FINISH OFF OUR GOOD FURNITURE! UNIDEN'S RESPONSE: IT WAS YOUR FAULT FOR PLACING THE PHONES ON YOUR FURNITURE NOT OURS. TOO BAD A WARNING ISN'T IN THE UNIDEN MANUAL! SO SAVE YOUR MONEY AND THE COST OF REPAIRING YOUR FURNITURE AND DON'T BUY UNIDEN!
PICTURE WITH THE PHONE IS MISLEADING.......2007-12-08
The only reason I bought this phone is because I thought I was getting the answering machine base with a handset and TWO more handsets. Was very disappointed when I only got the answering machine base with the ONE handset.
static is a problem.......2007-11-27
I have these phones and there seems to be static on the lines - also the charge does not last as long as my previous phones
Best phone I ever owned .......2007-10-13
For me,the two most important things are clear reception,and range. Both are excellent. This is the best phone that I have owned yet.
