Need new handsets

I just wanted to ask people's opinions cordless DECT landline phones?

Our set are quite old and need replaced. Much like the mobile market there are loads of DECT handsets out there. We are after a dual handset system.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Re: Need new handsets

I've got these and for how much I need them, they work well

You can also get a version with an answerphone for £5 extra

There is a slight issue is that they don't share a phonebook, so you have to put the numbers into each one. But for me thats good cos I've got different number to my flatmate

I have come across those as I've been shopping around - they look good. We would need the answering machine. Pretty good value too.

Thank you

Re: Need new handsets

We recently bought these http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005HUJIMO/ as replacements for our ageing handsets

Very pleased with them

I've got the BT Graphite 2500 twin pack as well, they are a decent phone although they can cut out sometimes when using the speakerphone.

Re: Need new handsets

Not checked any of those links but have tried BT, Binatone and someone else in the past. Now on Panasonic and have no hesitation in recommending them

I've got the same as Ben, and have done for the last 5 years, with no issues. Highly recommended
