No extra cordless unit offered

"Bought the product because the word "expandable" thinking that later I could buy an extra cordless unit for an additional bedroom. Found out later that Radio Shack does not sale the cordless unit alone. If I have known that I would not have bought the unit. Radio Shack should start offering the cordless unit again, if not, the word "EXPANDABLE" is misleading...." Read Full Review »

poor range

"These phones have terrible range. The whole point of having expandable phones is so that you can have them in multiple rooms. These phones do not allow you to be very far away from the main base unit. If I am upstairs (in a small house) or my husband is out in the garage, we have to go back near the kitchen just to be able to talk. Our phones are less than a year old, but I'm getting something else. I do not r..." Read Full Review »

"I was in absolute shock when I found out that the handsest has about 20 changeable ring tones and the corded handset or base unit has ZERO changeable ringtones! What's up with that? Also the ring volumes are pretty much loud, semi-loud or off. Would rather have more than three options on ring volu …"  Read Full Review »

"4-way function key no longer works on one handset. I need to replace only one handset, but Radio Shack no longer sells the add-on handsets. Replacing the entire system, base unit and 3 additional handsets, would be expensive, wasteful and not environmentally friendly! BRING BACK THE ADD-ONS, or r …"  Read Full Review »
