Anybody ever use one of these systems. Its the four line cordless with up to 8 extensions and built in voice mail. I have a customer that is interested in one but I have no feedback to offer. I'm mostly interested in the system's durability and how it operates in a noisy electrical enviroment with lots of fluorescent lighting. Thanks

I've got two of these in service (at customer request) and know of two others they bought at Office Max (or some such).
Once they are set up and the customer understands these are not cell phones they seem to work okay. Batteries, dropped and off freq handsets seem to be the weak items.
One is in a school setting and the lighting doesn't seem to cause any problems that any other 2.4 mhz cordless has.
My opinion only.

Thanks KLD, I now have some info for the customer.

They are good units, but try to make sure that the customer understands that the handsets can only survive falling on a hard cement floor a few times.

Otherwise it is the answer for the cheapskate who wants voicemail without paying for it.

I've seen one of these at a car dealership...They seemed to work fine and the users were happy with them. That's all I know.

I have several customers who tried to save some $$ and purchased this system. The biggest and most annoying problem I have seen is they tend to pick up local AM Radio pretty bad.. worse than most cordless equipment...
