VTech CS6719-2 2-Handset Cordless Phone with Caller ID/Call Waiting, Handset Intercom & Backlit Display/Keypad, Silver

Lo compre para mi mamá y es exactamente igual a uno azul que tenía de la misma marca. El otro aún está bien, solo hay que cambiar las baterías. Funciona muy bien, el ensamblaje es muy facial, viene muy bien empaquetado y funciona excelente. A mi mamá le encanto 😊

Plug in the batteries, plug in the base, use your new phone, it’s that simple! I was dreading having to set up a new device, but there was nothing to set up! This phone is pretty much identical to the 20 year old phone, from the same company, that it’s replacing, if it lasts half as long as the old one, I’m happy!

Good phone system, can get messages from phone without having to go to main base.

Absolutely worthless phones and it's system. The display is so dim you can't see it hardly at all. I contacted the mfg and they told me it does not have any setting for it or it's contrast to make it better to see what is on the screen. They told me it is what it is. ZERO help from them except to say get a different set of phones and a different brand. This is terrible and should be noted that they will not help a customer and are quite flippant when asked for help.

Is display screen legible for seniors

I bought this to replace my previous vtech phone set after the base unit stopped working after a power outage. It does work, it was easy to set up, less so to get programmed.However, if I could get the old one to work I'd gladly get rid of this replacement set because it is much less user friendly. Both sets are supposedly expandable, but to expand the new set requires buying an individual handset that costs more than the base unit + 1. The fact that they don't have any sets that come with more handsets to begin with but without the answering system is a sign that Vtech is out of touch with their customers.Additionally, as several other reviewers have said, this phone is harder to read than the previous versions. Not sure exactly why, but the green background on the old set is much easier on the eyes.I'm still in the return window so I'm actively looking for a completely different system. Contacting Vtech for help was useless, which was not a surprise, but makes me even less inclined to buy another product from Vtech.

Now that I have an internet based phone system, this set of 4 phones worked out perfectly. Base unit plugs into the modem, the 3 extension phones are set up on other rooms and all of them work great! Love the fact that they are all color matched with bases as well. Very easy to set up; was operational in minutes.

This phone system started acting-up just after the Amazon return window (of course). The problem is the base would stop functioning on it's own and incapacitate the entire handset system. All 4 phones connected to this base said "NO LINE" when the base shut itself down.The first time, I thought it might be my cable provider, but it was not. This happened four (4) times over the course of 4 weeks. Only way to TEMPORARILY resolve the problem was to unplug the base unit, wait, then plug it back it. But alas, the unit with a mind of it's own, would shut down itself and all 4 handsets when it felt like not working.Worse was the customer service; I sent a detailed email to VTech through Amazon's website explaining the issue, steps I took, and that I would like a replacement (the unit was only 2 months old). They sent a canned email back to me telling me to unplug the unit, etc., etc., etc. The email further provided a return address and instructed me to make sure I sent it back either USPS or UPS at my cost and then once they received it, they would send a new or similar type unit.First, why should I have to pay return postage on a defective item VTech manufactured? Second, while they want me to fund the return and they don't ship a new phone until the old one is received, what am I supposed to do for telephone service for those couple of weeks? I wrote back to their reply and because it was clearly evident the entire phone system was defective, asked them to send me a prepaid postage lable. After two days of waiting for it, they sent an email back telling me, "Due to the nature of your concern, your request will need to be handled by a live representative." REALLY? Since I was not up to arguing with VTech anymore, I chose not to call them. I took alternative steps to resolve my issue.But I wanted other consumers to know; STAY AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT. I am in my early sixties and have been a long-time VTech customer. VTech's product quality and customer care has all gone down the tubes. They won't care if I don't buy from them (one person), but if others heed the warning, maybe their revenue can take a dip from selling junk.
