Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of GE 29875GE1 Digital Messaging System with Voice Time and Day Stamp - White
Customer Review: Works, but has a usability issue
Summary: 2 Stars
Bought this at Walmart for my mother. It works, however the functional design is poor because the on/off button is a multifunction push button that does other things too besides turn the machine on/off, meaning someone might turn the machine off by accident and not know it because it is STILL LIT UP, giving the appearance that it is on when in fact if is off. So they think it's on, but nobody can leave a message b/c it's actually turned off.Customer Review: worked okay for about 2 years
Summary: 2 Stars
This was a fine cheap answering machine for about two years. Then anytime we used the phone attached to it, we'd get horrible static on the line, and only playing with the wire connecting it to the answering machine would help, although sometimes it would just disconnect the call. It does seem to miss calls on occasion. It wasn't the worst one I've had, but we got this one really cheap, and you get what you pay for on this one.Customer Review: Don't waste your money

Bought this...very easy to set up..thought good deal.It worked one week.The other messages stopped playing and died after the person said, "Hello this is.." Frustrated the callers! The playback sounds terrible. I just recycled it. No no don't buy.Customer Review: Cuts people off
Summary: 2 Stars
This machine cuts people off at random. It doesn't matter that I've set the message length to 4 minutes, if the caller speaks loudly or if the caller doesn't take any pauses. The machine randomly cuts off about 1 in 5 callers!Customer Review: waste of money
Summary: 1 Stars
Looking for another machine, this machine is NOT worth it at all. When the machine picked up a call, I tried to stop machine to talk to person, it WILL NOT let you, like others said, it cuts call off also. When trying to set up, it repeats announces a comment about a call, but it turns the comment around! Some of it's announcing says the phrase backwards also. Don't waste trying this product. If you bought it, call Amazon for label to return if you decide.
I DO RECOMMEND THE AT&T 1720 single-line digital, now that's a great machine, gives you the date & time call came in, never had trouble with the quality sound. Will look for it, it's stored due to my move where I'm at & forgot about it. But check on the ratings after the positive ratings, the 2nd rating, rep told me it's how many people have bought from seller. I had it for over 10 years. One seller sells it 'refurbished', $69.9+, the 1st one is 'used', $37.9+, but how used or how long has person owned it, be careful, you may think the used one is cheaper, remember the saying, u get what u paid for. Wonder why they want to get rid of a good machine, that's beyond me. The $69, must be better deal, looks like it's a company. I have called, depending what I get, check with person who answers, but still will go thru Amazon. If you go directly thru the seller, you may not get your $ back if some problem, but was told Amazon will make sure.
