With the right battery, this is a very good home/office phone
By Discriminating Shopper
I searched a year ago for a home cordless phone/answering system all in one to take the place of my somewhat outdated cordless phones and separate answering machine. Looked at many models and finally settled on the Panasonic KX-TG2700 series. I am impressed, and my family loves it. Yes, we still have the old corded standby for power outages, but these phones have worked well for 2 years now, and I bought a second system for my home office with 2 line capability. Then found an add on handset/clock radio to reduce the clutter on my nightstand. So, has lots of good functions, and everyone has one in their room and me in my office and by my bed. Only complaint was the battery life - very poor. I use the speakerphone feature in my office for conference calls and was always having to revert to the corded model to complete the call. Told Panasonic about this and the only response was to ship me a new battery, which I charged just as they stated. But poor battery design. So I did a little research and found Eveready made an Energizer battery that supposedly cured the problem. I bought a box from an on line retailer and replaced all the handset batteries, one by one, charging each as the phone instructions said. WORKS GREAT!! Batteries are sold by Technuity, Inc. and are model ER-P511. Now my phones have been in operation for over a year with these batteries and never lost a charge or cut my call off. If you find a good deal on this phone, go for it now before they sell out. Really good to use and easy to learn. I even have a door paging system/doorbell hooked up to the phone line and these phones do a great job when I use this for door intercom. And the bedside clock radio works great, sounds great for a clock radio. Panasonic got the design right - they look a little clunky, but work great. The reason I'm writing this is I'm looking for a couple more handsets before they phase out this phone. Not ready to go 5.8 gig yet. By the way, wireless modems have problems with cordless phones so we're still in the wired mode around here for the internet connection.

Good, But Not Reliable
By The Tox Guy
The system is a great idea and I own 3 remote handsets. I have had to return two of them because the LCD displays failed, one after about 8 months of use and the other didn't work "new" out of the box. My third handset is also showing signs of LCD screen failure. ALL of the handsets that have failed have been "Violet" colored which seems like an unusual coincidence(?) and makes me a little suspicious that "Violet" units may be a substandard product line. I also have "White" and "Gray" handsets that work just fine. The return policy is pretty hassle-free, but why the problems to begin with?

Beware the Battery Life - Panasonic will not support.
By A Customer
The rechargable battery in this handset WILL develop a memory and become unusable during the warrenty period. Panasonic claims the battery in this handset is an "Accessory" and not covered under the warrenty. And, they say "sorry" but they can not help. Interestly, they do cover some batteries in other handsets.
My suggestion is NOT so buy products from a company where the usage of the product causes a problem they do not cover. If you are willing to replace the battery yourself every 3 - 6 months of use, it is probably a good handset.
Personally, I will not buy another Panasonic product.
