I needed a phone for the kitchen that could be used without having to pick up handset.I am not happy with the performance of the speakerphone. I purchased this phone for two features: 1. It very difficult to carry a conversation on the speakerphone, so I almost always have to pick up the handset. The speaker part is fine - I can hear the caller relatively clearly, but the microphone picks up a lot of noise and muffles my voice. It hangs flat on the wall and 2. it has speakerphone.
Just got it - love it for what it does - BUT - there is no MUTE button - which is a sin for a speaker phone.
On speaker mode I have been told that my voice is not being amplified as well as required. I found the display difficult to read especially when the phone is lying flat, which I assume is the primary position. The Panasonic KX-TSC14W provides the basic functionality i require, which is 2 lines and speakers. Set up is straight forward.
I only use one of the 2 lines but if I ever wanted another line, my phone would be ready. I turn the ringer off at night and back on in the morning and it is so easy to do. I replaced my old Panasonic phone - exactly same model - and this one is even improved. I would buy this same exact model again. I am very happy with this phone. The ringer sounds better - not as harsh sounding. I had my old phone for 7 years and it clunked out on me but for $50+, that's not a bad deal.
This makes both using and viewing the phone awkward. The product works well with good voice quality and the various functions available are very useful and complete. Since I purchased the unit for wall use I was somewhat disappointed with this application, for the phone when attached to the wall, has a inclined aspect wherein the top is out considerably further than the base.
