Author's Review
The first thing I noticed was the precarious way the handset fits on the unit. The slightest bump or nudge knocks it off the hook. If you have a cluttered desk, a cat, or the phone located near your elbow (all of which apply in my case), it gets knocked off the hook all the time.
The second thing I noticed was the poor audio quality. Audio is passable through the handset, but unbearable through the speakerphone.
Finally, and most irritating, is the fact that call-waiting doesn't work right. This may have something to do with the local service in my area, but if so GE has not done their homework in making this unit compatible. When another call comes in, I'm supposed to get a beep that tells me the call is waiting. But it doesn't wait. I hear a beep, then the phone switches me to the incoming caller. (Today I was in the middle of an extremely important call, then suddenly the phone beeps and I'm talking to a telemarketer! If I sound a little miffed, that's why...)
Anyway, tomorrow morning I'm going shopping for a different phone, and this one is going in the trash. I'm sorry I wasted $40+ dollars on this piece of junk.
