Customer Review: Perfect for the high-tech household (really, read on).
Summary: 5 Stars
Today, it is very difficult to find a phone like the AT&T 950. You can find aisle after aisle of corless phones, caller ID (CID), answering machine features, multi-headsets, multi-line, etc. Believe me, we are a high-tech, all digital household, but there are three reasons why this is the perfect phone for my high-tech household.
1. My house was built 15 years ago without the forethought of an AC outlet near the phone so I am limited for the primary house phone to be powered by the phone jack only, which means limited features because all the newest phone features need far more than the phone jack can supply. This phone has CID, 10 speed dial buttons and a speakerphone! Try getting these features without an AC Adapter; it's a long search. Besides, in my kitchen, I don't like the look of a power cord running down the wall or risk snagging it when I walk by.
2. Every house should have one phone that is powered solely by the standard RJ-11 phone jack. We also have a multi-handset cordless phone system with handsets conveniently placed throughout the house, so there is plenty of cordless phone access. But these phones are dead in a power outage. I know, cell phones work too, but your battery might be low and then what, go sit in the car with the cigarette lighter charger? For those of you with elderly parents, this is a great idea as well; they quickly get nervous in a power outage. Their primary phone should be jack-powered only.
3. Thankfully, it doesn't have an answering machine feature. That's right, I don't want an answering machine phone. I've had phone company based answering machine (voice mail) for years, first Vonage, now Comcast (most of the other major carriers bundle this feature). So I don't want to pay for answering machine features in phones because I'd have to turn them off anyway. Besides, that goes back to reason #1, answering machines need an AC outlet and I don't have one near the phone.
And of course, the phone works great. Sound quality is crystal clear, buttons are easy to dial (press), it's easy to clean, the speakerphone is so loud I have to keep it turned down. Yes, it does need four AA batteries, but they last about a year. Some people will complain that the CID window is hard to see. It's not backlit of course but considering everything else, that's not a problem.
And it costs $25-30. I hope AT&T keeps making these basic phones. They have a place in the high-tech home.
