The Bottom Line: If you want a true 5.8GHz cordless phone that offers crystal clear sound, reliable performance, will not interfere with Wi-Fi, look no further then Motorola MD681 5.8GHZ Cordless Phone.

Review: My wife and I have owned no less the 11 different sets of phones (cored and cordless) since we got married just under five years ago, in a seemingly fruitless search for the perfect cordless phone. For a moment we thought our search had ended with...

The Bottom Line: Although this has been out for a while, but it is the best combination of all the functions and price.

Review: For the longest time, we are searching for a cordless phone that doesn't hear someone else's conversation or loose connection when I go outside. It is tough to find. Then we come across this phone about a year ago. After reading some great reviews,...

The Bottom Line: A real high quality cordless phone/answering machine combo that really shines in voice quality.

Review: I'll get right to the point. This system is a fantastic cordless phone system if you are looking for a phone that has a long battery life and excellent voice quality. Of any cordless phone I've ever used, this wins hands down for voice quality. Now...

The Bottom Line: If youre looking for an excellent cordless phone for a reasonable price, youve finally found it. I'd buy another one in a minute if I needed one.

Review: Update as of 11/28/2006: After nearly 2 years of service, I still love this phone! It still works like a champ and has never broken. An outstanding phone for its price!!
Original review: Good cordless phones are darn hard to find, great ones...

The Bottom Line: Wireless LAN friendly and good speaker phone. Sound quality is not the best, though acceptable to me because the good deals put it significantly cheaper than the competing models.

Review: I bought this phone to replace a first generation 2.4GHz Panasonic DSS because it didn't hold up well and interferes with my 802.11g wireless LAN once in a while. The Panasonic was a good phone, but it started to fall apart after 2 years. When the...

The Bottom Line: I do not recommend any product that is so sensitive it won't work in a kitchen or office without fear of interference.

Review: On the plus side

The Motorola MD 681 5.8 GHz Digital Expandable Cordless Speakerphone with Answering System and Caller ID has got all the features the average homeowner could want and more. It includes:

The Bottom Line: Avoid this phone/answering machine combo because it has a life span of 1 year.

Review: I purchased this phone on the advice of a friend, who has the same model. After 1 year and 3 months of ownership (conveniently just past the manufacturer's warranty), the phone became incapable of making or receiving calls. Although I only had the...

Review: I would agree to lot of other reviews that this phone is hands down a great phone. I make lot of calls using it and never had problems of any sort. The speaker phone in the handset is a great feature and works well to.
The charge holds up quite...

The Bottom Line: A quality product can be purchased for half the price of a MD681

Review: I sought a top-quality phone with voice mail, and bought the MD681 at the suggestion of a Circuit City salesperson. The sound quality was sometimes very good, but often the reception and transmission cut out as if using a cell phone in a weak area...

The Bottom Line: I love this system. And I've had MANY. Try it - you won't be disappointed!

Review: We live in a big house, with a big family. For years I've been searching for expandable cordless phone system that can handle our needs. My criteria weren't extensive, but each attribute was very important to us.

First, it had to be...
