Title: Certainly not the top of the line
Product review: My previous, "cheapo" answering machine had a blinking red light that made it easy to tell if I had received new phone messages, but with this machine, you have to get within a few inches of the tiny, recessed LCD display to determine if you have any new phone messages. The process for recording an outgoing message (OGM) is cumbersome, the process for listening to your own OGM is even more cumbersome, and the sound quality of the OGM is poor. The "film" needed for printing incoming faxes is only a sample, and ran out after I had only received a few faxed pages, requiring an inconvenient trip to an office supply store. And, I'm still waiting for the rebate to arrive, 2 months after my purchase. Overall, I would rate this machine as OK, for a "bottom of the line" machine. I was mildly disappointed with the Sharp company.
