Sadly, mine are all VoIP, but for the most part they work very well. I too use my house phone every chance I get. I actually forward my cell to my house number when I'm home, the calls are much clearer. The built in rotary to tone converter in the partner makes the system indispensable. It's also nice to be able to delay or shut off ringing to some extensions just by some simple programming. With all the phones I have, it would be unbearable if they all rang. Plus it lets me have the phones ring upstairs on my parent's line and downstairs on my lines. I had the opportunity to work on a Tadiran Emerald Ice system a few weeks ago at the car dealership I was doing some work for. I know any unfamiliar system is a learning curve, but I didn't think it was intuitive at all.
