AT&T 1739 - Corded Digital Answering System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I returned this to the store a week after buying it.I was hoping this would be an economical replacement to voice mail but I just couldn't get over the cons.

Pros:
* Cheap

* Easy to set up and use

* 40 minutes of messages and voice memos @ up to 3 minutes/message.I don't know why the other reviewer only got 14 minutes - maybe he misunderstood when it said "40.Minutes.Remaining."?Mine had 40.

* Did a good job of detecting when the phone was picked up.

Cons (in order):
* Poor call quality.Most of the calls I got sounded distorted at best.Unless the person spoke very clearly and enunciated purposefully, it was hard to understand the message.The announcer's voice sounds great, so I don't think the problem is with the speaker.

* Ridiculous feedback!If I answered my phone within 3 feet of the unit, it would cause very strong feedback.I had to keep them *away* from each other.

* No date setting.It asks you to enter the year and the day but doesn't allow you to set the date.Your message is "Sunday at 6:15pm"... which Sunday?

* Hardwired cord.Not a big deal but it would have been nice if it had a jack instead so I could use the cord I already had snaked behind my entertainment system.
