Customer Review: Bad Battery life
I paid around $100 to purchase one of this and battery went bad in 7/8 months and called uniden and they say batteries have three months warranty and i have to buy new one's out of my pocket. It's a shame that a product for such price has such a poor quality battery. I've seen lot of cheap product costs below $30 lasts more than 2 years. So why should someone pay such price and pay again for batteries so soon. I would say its a bad product. Not worth the money you pay. having some fancy feature does not make a product good if it does not server your basic purpose. Also there is no customer service number in their web page. Email does not guarantee any reasonable answer. I would say, stay away from Uniden product.
Customer Review: Beware
Phone works fine but one major flaw appears to be: There is a limit of 10 handsets that can be registered. Lets say you registered 10 hand sets and you lost couple of them.. you wont be able to reset the base unit to factory setting. The user manual does not show or talk about this limitation. I now have only 4 handsets at home, but over the past year registered over 10 handsets. So, now because of the limitation, I am unable to add any more handsets even though I have only 4 handsets active. There is no way to delete or remove registered handsets that were lost
