Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of VTech CS5111 1-Handset Cordless Phone, Silver/BlackCustomer Review: simple cordless phone review 5 stars Summary: 5 Stars
The Vtech CS5111 Cordless Phone is exactly what I was looking for, an affordable cordless phone that would hold a charge and had minimal extra stuff. It does not have an answering machine or a speaker phone, and I already had those in other phones. I needed a simple wall mount cordless phone with caller ID for the kitchen. The handset is light and comfortable, good looking in its silver and black finish. It can be used as a desk phone or a wall phone. It has the normal attachment feature to hook it to a wall mount jack. My jack was the wrong style so I converted a jack with the RCA TP251 Wall Phone Mount I found here at Amazon. It sits securely in the wall set and does not fall out.
It has a couple of features I need with my weak eyes and hearing, the screen is large and lights up (could be brighter though), the big buttons all light up, and it has a volume control on the handset. Also has a "find the phone" feature so I can hunt it down. "Honey, If I could remember where I left it last it would not be lost".
The phone has a redial button. So far the phone has clear reception and its signal does not interfere with my wireless computer signal like the old phone did. If you have voice-mail service with the phone company, it has a flashing light to alert you to a message. Mine has a sticker that it is "energy star compliant".
The caller ID stores the last 45 calls. It has features I have not used such as a directory you can set up of 20 names/numbers, and 9 speed-dial numbers, and an indicator alerting you of a waiting voicemail. It is caller ID/call waiting compatible. It stores the information of the last 45 callers. You can change the ringtones, and the menu allows you to change the language from English to Spanish or French. The rechargable battery is GE-TL26563VTCS5111. I have never had a phone from this company before, but so far so good. Shop around this site on the price, the prices vary wildly depending on the listing page, do a search on "vtech 5.8 phone" and you will see that some seller pages at Amazon are more expensive or more affordable than what other sell the same phone for, also check the shipping price. If I have problems, I will post an update here.
