Solid Uniden expandable 5.8Ghz phone deserves a try

Date of Review:  Jan 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: Solid phone for the price and does what it needs to do. Sound clear
Review: There comes a time in everyone's house hold when you have to add more phones because you have either lost the primary handset or lost it in the couch covers. Cordless phones are a must as no one likes to be tied down to 1 sitting position while on...

Uniden TRU9488-3 corded/cordless phones

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2006
Review: I purchased the Uniden TRU9488-3 phone package from a new Costco store in Raleigh,NC. The regular price was $120, but Costco had a $30 off coupon, and also gave me two $10 gift cards for taking out a membership and applying for their American...

90 for 4 phones! Can?t beat the price and quality!

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2007
The Bottom Line: The cost of this product fully outweighs the number of features that this phone has.
Review: My son decided to throw our cordless phone down the toilet and so I was forced to upgrade our phone. I purchased this set at Costco when they had a $30 off promotion and therefore it was just about $90 for 4 phones! The main reason for purchasing...

BUYER BEWARE - SERIOUS PROBLEMS

Date of Review:  May 29, 2007
The Bottom Line: Out of a total of 6 handsets I received -- FIVE had the same major defect which made them unuseable. Until Uniden honestly addresses this quality control issue, DON'T BUY
Review: I have been a VERY happy Uniden user for the last six years. Recently I decided to upgrade my system to the UNIDEN TRU-9488 model. This model comes essentially as a corded phone base w/ digital ans. machine plus one cordless handset (a TCX905) with...

A very smart system

Date of Review:  Apr 30, 2007
Review: This system is very "smart". The first thing I did was set the time on a handheld without even opening the manual. Lo and behold, the time appeared in all four displays of the system that were scattered about the house!

Very satisfied with...

Uniden TRU 9488 Disappointing

Date of Review:  Mar 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: Buy it somewhere that has an easy refund policy so you can return it if you don't like it.
Review:
I purchased the phone due to its positive ratings and a couple mandatory features. I wanted a phone with the speaker phone in the base so I could answer with one finger. I wanted large buttons on a base dial pad as this makes dialing easier...

Great Phone & System

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2007
Review: I purchased this phone late-2006 for my home office. My main reasons for purchasing were:
- Base Speakerphone
- Expandability
- Ability to transfer calls between base & handsets

I am very satisfied with this phone system. I...

Best phone I've ever owned

Date of Review:  Feb 4, 2008
Review: I have a small business and am on a lot of conference calls. I've searched hi and low for a phone with a good speakerphone and mute. This phone delivers that and more. The cordless that comes with it is tops too. All the right features like...
