Summary: 5 Stars
This product is great. I've had no problems with it and it was very affordable.Customer Review: Works great ... when it works
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought two of these units in March 2003. I needed "Call Waiting Caller ID" capability and bought these units after an awful experience with Radio Shack's comparable product. I was immediately impressed by how much better these units worked, and indeed they do everything well. They even have a call timer (which I wasn't aware of). The only bad news is that I've had one of them fail. A few weeks ago it started complaining of low batteries, even though I'd put batteries in both units at the same time. Removing the batteries then putting them back in solved the problem for a week or two, but then the problem came back. Finally, the problem came back for good ... even new batteries couldn't solve it. Then the display went nutso, it started displaying the call counter even though the unit wasn't hooked up. It did that even after having no batteries in it for several days (I thought that might reset it). So I've sent the unit back to the company for repair (Texas). We'll see. The other unit continues to work fine. I like this unit well enough that I'm even considering buying a third one for another room ... and keeping my fingers crossed.Customer Review: Ugly but Durable and Functional
Summary: 4 Stars
After wrestling with the very poorly designed battery compartment door, I got the ID unit hooked up to my phone and answering machine. I called the phone company to tell them to subscribe me to caller ID service and they said it would take 'til the end of the day. But two hours later, when my husband phoned, the ID unit clearly displayed his name and number. I've had consistent good functioning ever since from this ugly (c'mon, why do so many electronics have to be made of *white plastic*?!) but durable unit. Multiple times I've even leaned over to erase logged calls while washing dishes, splashing water on this unit and it has taken the abuse and continued to function. I'm unsure it's worth the $9/month the phone company is charging me for caller ID service, but that is totally independent of the quality, ease of use and reliability of the unit itself.Customer Review: GE Caller ID
Summary: 4 Stars
I've only had this caller ID for a month and a very satisfied with it. Price is right. Received in a short time and arrived in good condition. Love the large number display, Timer, and Call back features. I've had no problem reading the display. I bought this to use with an old speakerphone. The feature I disliked is that the line cord that connects to the telephone jack is permanently attached and not very long. I have 3 other caller ID's and none of them have permanent attached cords. I had to move my phone to a different place so the cord would reach to the telephone jack. For this reason I rated it 4 stars.
