I had this for not even a month, and then it just totally stopped working. I couldn't get it to turn on.And, when it was workinga) it was really hard to see the numbers on the screen andb) the voicemail light would often blink even when there was no message and no new phone call.Total waste of money.
Hey and who can beat the price. We have phones all over the house and I really like to see whose calling before I answer. We'll I was not surprised to see they where pretty much the same and works great just like the other ones did. They are small and in obtrusive. I bought two of their earlier models 6 years ago and it held up forever and worked well. Unfortunately we lost them in the last move and had to bite it and get new ones. These are easy to hook up and work.
These reviews have helped me to become aware of many features available or needed to make this type of unit a more user friendly device. I have requested support from atttelephoneproducts@aatphones.com. After reading the previous 8 reviews I am beginning to understand why I am experiencing problems. The information re; being incompatible with DSL is true in my case also.
It would be nice to have a back up battery in case of power failute and a larger display would also be nice. Is anyone aware of other units which have no problem with the DSL line. My phones with caller ID display work at all times. It works fine as long as the DSL is not plugged in. Mine has neither of these features. I like the features of this unit and would like it even better if it had all of features some other reviewers listed, like call sorting and adjustable LCD. But my real complaint is that when my DSL modem is plugged into the wall, my Caller Display 436 will not work. I like the fact that this unit came with a power supply rather than batteries.
The display of the current call works, but after getting several calls in memory the characters change to display complete gibberish when looking back at the history. This is supposed to display the caller information, and store up to 100 calls in memory. If you have a use for the call history, don't buy it because it doesn't work.
