Great phone with answering capabilities built in!.......2007-12-24
We desperately needed another answering machine after our new puppy bit through the cords of the last one. I simply looked on amazon.com for the best recommended one and this was it. My hearing husband could not be more pleased. This phone does the job and then some. It's nice not to have several different electronic devices laying around...and this one is out of reach of the dog!

Could use improvement.......2007-12-24
I like the speaker feature, which is helpful for the hard of hearing. What is missing is an audible warning that I have receved messages in my absence. My previous answering machine AT&T did not have the first feature, but did did beep to alert me to new messages.Panasonic KX-TG6072B 5.8 GHz Cordless Telephone w/Digital Answering Machine and 2 Handsets
Does what it says.......2007-12-20
Its been a month I have been using this phone. I never had any issues with it. completely satisfied!!!
Mediocre phone .......2007-12-19
I bought this phone after reading several reviews praising it. I thought I'd be getting a great phone at a good price. While the latter was true, the phone's voice quality is mediocre at best. I could live with that but for some reason the phones periodically go into mute mode where I can hear fine but the person who called me can't hear me at all. The only way I've found to correct this is to unplug the phone for several seconds. As you might guess I find this "annoying". Most electronics seem to be getting better all the time. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be true of cordless phones. Until it finally bit the dust my seven year old Uniden which I bought for $15 was far better than anything I've been able to find since including a newer model Uniden and this Panasonic.
Panasonic 5.8 GHz.......2007-12-18
I've had good luck with Panasonic phones. So far, this appears to be everything I expected from Panasonic, quality item, well-built, works very well for my small business. This is a phone I would recommend for home or small office use without hesitation.

Put a Handset in Every Room
With two handsets (one base and one charger) included and the option of adding up to two additional handsets--all while using only one base and one phone jack--go ahead and put one in the den, the kitchen, the master bedroom and the living room so you won't have to make a run for it when the phone rings.
Turn the Ringer Off...
Don't miss important calls when the ringer is off. The Light-Up Indicator at the base of the antenna will flash quickly to show that you have an incoming call, and it will flash slowly to let you know you have a new message in your voice mailbox
1. You can also choose up to three different light-up indicator colors to link to your pre-programmed phonebook data. Light-Up ID
1 requires corresponding Caller ID information to be received from an incoming call.
...Or Keep the Ringer On
With Ringer ID
1, you can choose from a downloaded or selectable ringer to link to your pre-programmed phonebook data, which also requires corresponding Caller ID information to be received from an incoming call.
Voices Come Through Loud and Clear
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.
Let the Kids Join the Conversation
With a Digital Duplex Speakerphone on the back of each handset, you can enjoy convenient, high-quality, hands-free conversations from any room in the house. So let the kids join in on the conversation with Grandma and Grandpa, or paint your nails while you chat with your best friend.
See Who's Calling, Even If You're Already on the Phone
We've all become accustomed to Caller ID and its ability to let us see who's calling before we answer the phone. But what happens when you're already on the phone and another call comes in on Call Waiting? Until now, you wouldn't know who was beeping in unless you answered it. With Call Waiting Caller ID
1, you get the best of both worlds. So now when you get a beep, you can see who's calling before you answer…but we'll leave that decision up to you!

Great investment!.......2007-12-27
My wife and I love this phone. It gets great reception and is user friendly. It is the best cordless phone that we've had yet.
Works as it should.......2007-12-26
Bought this to replace an earlier Panasonic 2.4 ghz cordless phone that lasted me for years but was getting a little long in the tooth.
This phone works exactly as you'd hope, and expect, which is a good thing. Battery life is good and signal is clear, no wireless network interference and no antennas to mess with as with most 2.4 ghz models. And if you've used a Panasonic cordless before, the menu and controls will basically be familiar.
The one thing its missing, and the reason I can't give five stars is that the keypad on the handsets do not light up to help with use in the dark. An easy feature to provide and one that my original Panasonic cordless had. Not sure why Panasonic decided to go backwards in this regard.
Very pleased with this phone.......2007-12-24
This set replaces a 5+ year old Panasonic phone that was on it's last legs.
We are very happy with the phones - they look nice and stylish, have great features and conversations are clear (and we're using VOIP over a DSL line that isn't the fastest).
I'd recommend this in a heartbeat!
Goood quality phone.......2007-12-16
Very good quality phone. what is missing is:
1. Does not announce the caller
2. Base has no speakerphone
Ideal for a modern home.......2007-12-12
This is a high quality package without an integrated voice mail service. Since it's 5.8 GHz, it doesn't interfere with WiFi. The speakerphone works well with no echo. The buttons are sturdy and comfortable. This unit has only one downside: The caller-ID does not display incoming names and numbers at the same time. It will quickly alternate between displaying the name and number. Overall, considering the price, the quality and the technology, I recommend this unit.
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.

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.
Decent set for the price.......2007-12-24
Tired of our other phones from Siemens (interference with the microwave, charging problems, etc.) we bought this set as a replacement. Overall a decent bargain and would recommend it at a good price.
4 phone set works great.......2007-12-24
I have a 2-story house , and there was no problem with static,
or range problems. All 4 phone are identically free of static, and they all can receive (read) the messages. Intercom feature works well too. These phones are great in every way that we use them .

Panasonic Perfect.......2007-12-23
Was impressed with the many features incorporated in this nice small size cordless phone -- especially the speaker phone feature.
KCX-TG6031M - Great Phone.......2007-12-18
I've had good experience with Panasonic phones in the past. The Oct 2007 Consumer Reports issue rated this phone #3 behind a more costlier Uniden and an AT&T 5.8/2.4 GHZ model. It has great voice quality both hearing and talking, easy to use settings and display, and I especially like the adjustable ringer and volume controls.
The Panasonic KXT-TG6021M is big bang for the bucks! If you're looking for a excellent basic phone (no base speaker phone, no lighted keypad, no VM features) but has conferencing and speaker phone in the hand set, buy this model. Warranty is a year but for a under $40 phone, who cares.
Fine........2007-12-18
We got the phone because our old cheap phone had bad reception,given the wireless set up we had and our using Vonage. This phone has all the bells and whistles we need, and the reception is noticeably better. Nothing fancy, but fine.
Good value for money.......2007-12-17
I bought this phone to supplement an earlier model Panasonic 2.4GHz phone. Both phones are operating on separate phone lines, so it's easy to compare them.
Compared to the previous model, this one cost very much less. Unfortunately, it also feels less well built. It's bigger, has less rounded edges and is much warmer after picking it up from the charging cradle.
Other cons compared to the earlier model:
- the keypad is not lighted. this may not seem like a big deal, but if you have used the feature before, it's nice to have.
- the green LED at the top of the phone never turns off and is bright at night
- There are no speed dials. Which means, you cannot press-and-hold digits 1-9 to dial a preset number. This one was a disappointment.
- There is no way to turn off the handset. With the earlier Panasonic, you could press-and-hold the power button to turn off the handset. When going on vacation, I usually turn off the power strip to all the phone and charging gadgets. This means having to take out the battery on the receiver so that we didn't return home to a flat battery.
I live in a region that uses 230V instead of 110V. I had a spare 9V universal power supply that I used initially. However, there was a strong buzzing signal that was clearly audible both at my end and also the recipient. It was hard to track it down to the power supply. Turns out that the phone is senstive to a switching supply. When I changed to a transformer based adaptor, the sound signal was ok.
I would buy the phone again, simply for it's good value.
It has the usual clear Pansonic cordless sound quality.
Shame on Amazon! Get it at Target for $34.99.......2007-12-09
Skip the "free" three-week shipping and go to the mall instead. I'm surprised Amazon is dropping the ball on this.

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.
An Outstanding System.......2007-11-24
We purchased this system a few weeks ago for our home and small business. After using it for the past several weeks, we are very pleased with how easy it was to set up and how intuitive it is to use. At first, we were a bit fearful that the system might not be what we needed, based on some negative reviews that we read on the Amazon site. We are happy to report that we have had absolutely no trouble with the system.
Some customer reviews complained that a call which is taken on one handset is listed as a "Missed Call" on the other one. We are pleased with this feature because, if you want to add the caller's phone number to your directory, you can easily locate the information on the other handset, add it to the directory with two keystrokes, and then copy it to the other handset using the menu keys. Then you have the caller's information in the directories of both handsets -- a very useful feature! (If it weren't for this attribute of the system, I am not sure how you could so easily capture the caller's ID and phone number for your directory.)
Several reviews mentioned weak signals between the base unit and the handsets. We have found the signal to be very strong, so strong that we are able to carry a handset into our back yard (over 100 feet away) and make and receive calls from it.
The answering system works very well. It allows you to save messages or erase them very easily, along with the usual time-stamping that lets you know when a call came in.
Overall, we are extremely pleased with the system, and will shortly add a third and possibly a fourth handset so we can have them on both levels of our house.

Good for those coming back to landlines.......2007-12-25
We finally got a landline (my first since college) and we opted for this system after reading reviews and for its selective ringtones. Assigning ringtones to callers (or groups of callers) is a must for anyone use to the same feature on his/her cellphone. Although you are limited to the number and choice of ringtones included on the phone, we have had no problem assigning either individual ringtones to certain contacts or to certain groups (e.g. my friends, wife's friends, etc.).
We have added the yellow water-proof Uniden to the system with no problems.
Phonebook can be copied to all handsets and base, however, ringtones have to be assigned on each phone. So, pick your choices carefully, and just take some time to do so while watching the TV.
Good Price, Great Phones.......2007-12-22
I found these to be much better than the panasonic phones that I had been buying. The menus and buttons are clear and understandable. Nothing dissapointing, which for some products is enough.
Nicely integrated expandable phone system.......2007-12-17
Works well, looks good. I have a total of six phones in this system and haven't had a problem in the 8 mos. that I've had them. The only thing I don't like so far is the small clip that snaps onto the back for carrying the phone hands free, i.e. on a belt. It's too short and doesn't hold it well. The phone easily is displaced from its perch and dropped. I end up putting the phone inside my shirt or in a pocket.
Uniden TRU9485.......2007-12-17
Very pleased with phones ease of use and options. The only problem I have with this phone is it's battery life. I am constantly recharging battery compared to my old Sony cordless. I will try to change the contrast on each phone to see if this helps. I have only owned the phone for 2 months and we will see if the buttons hold up after a year of use.
Great phones.......2007-12-12
I haven't used any of the features of the phone other than being able to install the base/charger in various places in my house and have them all share the same phone line. I have the main unit plus three extra phones. Great range and they are crystal clear.

great phone, great price.......2007-12-24
good value here just needs a volume control for hard of hearing to reach perfection
Expandable phones don't have good reception.......2007-12-23
We had to return the phones because the expandable phones had terrible reception. They would crackle and breakup when walking. We had to remain stationary for them to work.
Excellent performance.......2007-12-18
Panasonic seems to make the most reliable, easy to use cordless phones packed with features. I bought this set to replace three lesser cordless phones I had in the house and this set does not disappoint. It has excellent range and voice clarity. The battery life is very good.The feature that slows a callers voice down so you can better understand them works well too. I found it wasn't necessary for most callers but is useful with some. We didn't use the answering machine as we have voicemail through our phone service. The voice annouce is more amusing than informative-it tries to announce the name of the caller and it does so very mechanically and at least three rings into the call.If you want a good voice announcer, buy and attach a talking caller id machine- I have one and it announces the number clearly and loudly on the first ring. My point is don't count on this particular feature. There is no external antenna to potentially break off either, the design is great.This set is a great buy that offers great performance as all Panasonic cordless phones usually do. Buy It!
the talking caller id is kind of scary.......2007-12-12
So far this phone has been reliable and the voice quality is good. The phone lasts charged for quite awhile even when it is not on the charger. My phone line can have a lot of static when it rains, but I have not had this problem since buying this phone and we have had several rain and snow storms. Good system for the money. My only complaint is the talking caller id voice can be a little scary and misprounces a lot of names, however once you get used to it it is great becaue you can very easily screen calls without even looking at your phone. It says our last name correctly, and most people mispronounce our last name I was impressed by that. Overall this system is a great buy.
Panasonic KX-TG6053S.......2007-12-06
I've owned previous Panasonic cordless phones and have been satisfied with their performance. In my opinion, this one does not live up to the Panasonic phones I have had in the past.
Pros:
Clear sound, nice feel and weight of phones, multiple handsets
Cons:
Talking caller id has hard time pronouncing easy words, no backlight, records all hang-ups as a message (very annoying), no indicator for number of new messages (only a blinking light), does not display name and number on caller id for very long
It is an ok phone, but I expect more from Panasonic then this. The most annoying feature is the recorded hang-ups. So every sales person that calls and hangs up gets recorded. "You have 16 new messages" and I have to sit through them all to find if there is a "real" message mixed in there or if they are just hang-ups. I called and emailed Panasonic support about this, but they were not able to assist and were very slow in responding.
UPDATE - 12/19/2007 - recently the main base unit started making clicking noises for about 30 seconds after each phone call. And as of yesterday, I cannot use any of the 3 phones for outgoing calls. When I attempt to dial a number the phone does not dial, just keeps a dial tone, but no dialing. Receives calls just fine. I am now in a position where I have to have the phones serviced as they are under warranty, but I'll be looking to replace them with something else in the near future. It is dissapointing that Panasonic has put out a product like this.
Product Description

Combining a traditional corded handset with a 5.8 GHz cordless handset, the Uniden CEZAI998 offers cordless convenience when you want it, but will continue to provide basic phone service in the event of a power outage. The design also makes it an ideal choice for people with visual or hearing impairments: backlit, oversize keypad buttons on both the base and the cordless handset, an LED visual ring indicator and complete hearing aid compatibility work together to improve functionality. The base includes a fully digital answering system with up to 15 minutes of recording time. Additional features include an audible message alert, toll saver, remote message retrieval and a choice between personalized or prerecorded outgoing messages. With subscription to local service, the phone is compatible with Call Waiting Caller ID, and will display the name, number and date and time of each call on the oversize, backlit LCD, and will store up to 50 names and numbers so you can return calls at the touch of a button. Even without Caller ID service, a phonebook stores 10 of your most frequently-dialed numbers.

Uniden CEZAI998 Cordless Phone.......2007-10-23
So far the phone is working great. Audio boost is useless though. It causes too much static when on but volume is loud enough without it. I also don't like the fact that there is no battery backup on the base. If the power goes out you have to reprogram it. Otherwise the phone itself is fine.
Uniden phone.......2007-10-10
I have always thought Uniden made the best phones; long lasting, clear, easy to use. This model is no execption. Works great.
Great phone!.......2007-09-27
I'm not really hearing or vision impaired, other than what turning 50 does to you, but I found that I couldn't read the caller id window on my old phone anymore. The display on this phone is easy to read, and you can't miss the fact that its ringing, what with the lights and loud ringer and all. Really easy to set up, too. Heed this warning - disable the red button that dials 911 automatically unless you really, really need it. I was plugging
