Reviews of the Uniden DECT1560-2
-
CNET Review
The Good: Inexpensive; DECT 6.0 cordless phone; speakerphone on handset; expandable up to six handsets; integrated digital answering machine (on most models); decent battery life.
The Bad: Ho-hum styling; basic feature set; range isn't quite as large as other models we've tested; process to add customized outgoing answering machine message is unnecessarily convoluted.
The Bottom Line: Uniden's DECT1580 series of phones will appeal to those looking for a relatively no-frills, inexpensive DECT 6.0 cordless phone.
Manufacturer: Uniden America Corp.
Part number: DECT1560-2
