Awful phone. Do not buy! February 22, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this phone from a brick and mortar retailer, thinking I could trust its purchasing department. I was so wrong. I wish I had checked the Amazon reviews before buying. But who would have thought a company could screw up a corded phone? Well Thompson did just that and GE should be embarrassed. The other reviews hit the nail on the head. The cord is less two foot long and stretches maybe five feet. And it's hard-wired, so you cannot replace it with a longer corded. Seriously, hard-wired?!
Hard -wired cords? WTF??? October 1, 2007

I bought this cheap phone b/c it was cheap + had caller ID. I have since had to buy a hands-free headset that needs to plug INTO a corded phone to use. So now I have to buy another phone in order to (comfortably) attend teleconference meetings that can last an hour or more. What a waste.br /br /I am also afraid that other single-line phones will be hard-wired now, too, and it is so hard to tell from photos.br /br /Update: the caller ID function is now broken! When I scroll and choose a name to dial, the phone randomly chooses a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT number to dial, even though the number shown in the screen is the one I WANT to call!

I bought this phone about a month ago. Unlike some of the other reviewers, I had no problem reading the caller id information. However, the phone has a very short cord and it cannot be replaced. I called GE (Thompson) and they informed me all of their corded phones are hardwired. How ridiculous is that! Cords are easily damaged, yet they cannot be replaced. It is very difficult to find a corded wall mounted phone with caller id that doesn't look hideous.

This phone has all of the features that you are looking for and a venerable brand name.br /br /Reasons not to buy it include:br / o Poor sound qualitybr / o Non-Replaceable handset cordbr / o Low quality, hard-to-read displaybr /br /I read a review that noted the handset cord issue, but a photo showed a standard jack and plug. It turns out that the handset cord has a nice, industry standard plug at one end but the other end - not depicted in the photos I viewed - is hardwired.br /br /Even if one could overlook this "feature," it demands the question: Can the rest of the engineering be just as amaturish?br /br /Mine is on the regifting list.
Will return this phone. April 6, 2006

I thought the display was broken so I got a replacement.br /br /Apparently the display was not broken, you just to tilt the phone to see the display clearly. You cannot see the display head-on.
