After several phones from other manufacturers and just as many disappointments I finally still ended up with a little more expensive, but obviously better Gigaset. Separately for growing the base by the concrete ceiling of three floors and an outside wall, so far all cordless phones have failed. At the very attempt to answer the call, or - even worse - in mid-conversation, the contact with the base, and thus the call was regularly interrupted. The Gigaset has not yet shown any neurological deficits, and the call quality and volume of the hands are very good. Operation is beautifully simple and self-explanatory, in Nullkommaniy the phone is ready for use. Although the glossy surface looks chic, but unfortunately constantly smeared accordingly. With a microfiber cloth for cleaning glasses but quickly clean again. One criticism, however, that should be chosen only 2 rings: one for External calls and one for calls from other handsets. Straight Away calls I would like different tones to be the same "forewarned". And another drawback: phone numbers of incoming calls are not saved when the call is answered. Each simple cell phone, I can take over the number to the directory after the call. Here I have to during the conversation the caller ask for his number. Too Bad. Otherwise, I'm very happy, and for that price with 3 handsets - I would buy it again at any time.
