Title: No audible message tone! UNBELIEVABLE!
Product review: Others have provided good feedback on this system, but I don't think anyone mentioned what I consider its fatal flaw - THE BASE DOESN'T BEEP WHEN YOU HAVE MESSAGES! I don't think I have ever bought a phone machine that didn't have an audible indicator. On this system, the only way to know you have messages is if you look at a headset, or the base, and notice it's blinking. I don't know about you, but when I get home, I generally have a million things to do, and glancing at my phones usually isn't one of them. I bought these after returning another system (Vtech) that was great except that the handsets didn't have headset jacks. WHAT ARE THESE MANUFACTURERS THINKING? If you have no problem remembering to check for messages, this system might suit you just fine. But if you depend on that little beep, keep on looking.
