 VTECH COOL HANDSET September 4, 2008
The handset is light and cool it works like a dream.. There is no interference with any equipment at home, and you can walk about 1 mile and still receive good signal.
I JUST LOVE THIS PHONE August 8, 2008
THIS PHONE IS VERY NICE AND SLIM. MY HUSBAND AND I USE IT FOR WALKIE TALKIE. YOU CAN TALK FROM A VERY VERY FAR DISTANCE. I MAY ORDER ONE MORE FOR THE OTHER BED ROOM.... SOUND IS AWESOME.
 Not a good phone July 31, 2008
We were initially very pleased with these phones, they worked quite well the first few months (or so we thought), although we did notice a shorter battery life than our previous cordless phones (although not as extreme as others have reported). They would hold a charge for few days with moderate use.
However, within the last few months we've found that the sound quality has gone to crap (or maybe always was). The phones cut in-and-out, but only the out-going sound. So we, the users, don't notice it. We often talk to others who are on their cell phones and I think they just assumed since they had called our home number that it was their cellular service. One of the handsets is worse than the other, and it occurs even with a full charge on the battery, so it's not due to that.
I printed off and followed about a 20 item trouble-shooting list from Vtech's website, but all it did was prove these phones are crap. Don't buy them.
 VTech 6042 DECT 6.0 Two-Handset Cordless Phone System July 29, 2008
I purchased this phone system not only for it's design but for the new technology features and the two handsets. Setup was very easy even without using the manual. I was able to navigate the menu and set it up very easily. The sound quality is very good and I like the slim feature. For my purposes, it holds the charge all day when I am not using it and it is not on the rechargeable base. Since I have a separate answering system, I don't make use of the voice mail feature which is easily disabled. If you are looking for a great looking system with many features, this is your phone.
 Dead batteries July 24, 2008
I bought several of these phones so I could outfit my whole house with interchangeable portable phones. Not a single one of them has lasted, and I'm now faced with the choice of replacing all of their batteries, or the phones themselves. To make matters worse, dialing is very slow on these phones. Will probably be the last Vtech I buy for a while.
PROS:
-It looks cool
CONS:
-Zero battery life, unusable after a few months
-Slow dialing!
