Cheap, but not really.
I have to say, even given the price, I am disappointed in this phone. I selected it because I needed an answering machine, figuring it would be sufficient for my needs. It's junk. the phone is almost useless, for any call over 1 mile, and the machine is worse. It shows new messages, I play them, they are 3 days old...but never showed when they came in. the answering machine volume must be at the very top, blasting, or I can't even hear my messages...I seriously considered returning it, but there are very few choices, and I am in the middle of moving out of state. I'll probably just junk it when I move.

poor quality, poor battery life, not worth the price
I have owned several of these phones in the past. The first worked perfectly for several years. I was so happy with the performance of the first phone that I continued to purchase them. Though the price has remained reasonable, the quality has taken a nosedive. The battery life is the main problem. Though I have replaced the battery several times, the batteries themselves are very weak. In the long run, they haven't been worth the hassle of continually replacing phones and batteries. I'll never give a second glance at one of these worthless phones again.

Just what I wanted!
It is a simple phone/answering machinge no bells and whistles. Not complicated. Nice looking and compact size. Had it for about a month. We will see how long it lasts. For the price, I love it.
You can turn the ringer off and set the volume low so you don't have to hear anything if you don't want to. I love this phone.

Just bought the one without the answering machine and it is great too. Even cheaper!

Great Phone
I bought this phone as a gift and the recipient loves it. Great value for the price.

As expected

Great value and easy to use. Only draw back is the caller ID is difficult to read, other than that it's exactly what I expected.
