your advice on Phones

hi guys,

Another ALDI product that I would like your opinion on.

it is at: http://uk.aldi.com/ special buys section
Twin DECT Phone/Answering Machine Set

My mother is looking for a new phone and I thought this one looks/sounds ok, but most of the details I am not sure on.

what do you lot think?

Re: your advice on Phones

£30 is good for that, but I'm unsure about the lifespan of the batteries - 160 hours is less than a week...

That is the life span before recharging which I think is good

Re: your advice on Phones

I wander round the house with it, leave it somewhere, then don't think to go and find it... I use my mobile to dial out most of the time, and receive most of my calls on my mobile too, so I don't always think about where the land line phone is
