Uniden TRU8866

Pros: Fully featured, easy to use cordless, 5.8GHz phone.

Cons: You'll get no complaints from me!

The Bottom Line: Very simply, I LOVE this phone. It's easy to use, has many features and boasts great sound quality. I use the handsets on speaker phone almost exclusively.

Review: I've had two lines in my home for as long as I can remember. But it's been years since I had a multi-line telephone. Having recently moved into a larger loft, I needed more phones and I felt it was time to move beyond having multiple single line ...

Pros: Add up to 10 handsets, built in speakerphone, cid, great coverage

Cons: Doesn't work during power outages, no answering system, buttons on the small side.

The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this system to anyone looking for a full featured, expandable phone system.

Review: This phone, along with the three satellite TCX860 handsets I installed at the same time, has been working great. Just over a month ago I ordered the 8866 to replace four other aging 2.4GHz phones - three Panasonics and one Sony, all 900MHz phones. ...

Pros: Great battery capacity; terrific sound quality; a wealth of useful features.

Cons: Doesn't indicate which line has a message waiting to be retrieved.

The Bottom Line: If you don't need a answering machine and DO need a two-line cordless phone, this is the one to get!

Review: I work from an office in my home. Because of this, I wanted a phone that was not only cordless (so that I could move around while conversing) but also had a two-line capability. Since I subscribe to voicemail through the phone company, I had no need ...

Pros: 2-Line 5.8GHZ phone, will not interfere with Home Wireless WiFi networks, great voice quality

Cons: None yet. Uniden web site troubleshooting information could be better.

The Bottom Line: Highly recommended. Great audio quality, duplex speakerphone in the base and in each handset, easy to use. Caller-id, speed dial, intercom, conferencing & room monitoring features.

Review: Before I purchased this phone I read all of the negative reviews here at epinions which almost drove me away from this product. Since there was no other 2-line 5.8GHZ phone available in this price range, I decided to take a risk and give it a try. I have ...

Pros: lots of phone packed with features, easy to add extensions.

Cons: can't change ringer tones on base only volume.

Review: This is the first cordless 2 line phone, packed with features. A pleasure to use, and sound quality is better than any cordless phone system I have ever had. The call transfer, and intercom is user friendly. Adding handsets is a piece of cake. Do not ...

Pros: Great features; good clarity; range

Cons: none

Review: bought one for the same reason as everyone else -- first 2-line phone that doesn't interfere with my network. Pleasantly surprised after reading the reviews: much better volume and features than my panasonic; great range at my house (full house coverage ...

Pros: Quality, No built-in voice mail (didn't want it), Call Waiting CID Options, Room Monitor.

Cons: Would like different ring tones on base. Nice they are on handsets.

Review: Perfect. Integrates with phone company voice mail, multi line, multi handset, great sound quality, good range, Have been waiting for this phone! Great after Thanksgiving sale price at Fry's for $99. Couldn't be ...

Pros: Everything works

Cons: I don't use the phone, so I am not sure.

Review: I bought this phone hoping my father who uses a hearing aid could hear with the phone. He could not use most phones even with his hearing aid. Some sounded garbled. He can use this one without his hearing aid. Thanks ...

Pros: Range, voice quality, display, ringers

Cons: Feedback, non-standard batteries

The Bottom Line: If you really need a 5.8ghz, 2-line phone now buy this phone. Its the best currently available. If you can wait, the competition might come up with something better.

Review: I bought this phone (and 4 additional handsets) about 1 month ago to replace a 2.4ghz siemans 2400 phone that was experiencing interference from a neighbors wireless lan. See below for info on wireless lan interference with cordless phones. My ...

Pros: good volume, comfortable form factor, good reception, easily expandable

Cons: voice "echo", CID not in sync, handset speakerphone sucks, DND useless

The Bottom Line: If you need a two-line, 5.8GHz phone, this is currently the best bet. If you don't, it's still worth considering but there may be better options.

Review: I've started working out of my home a lot more and so I needed a better telephone set up. I switched on of my lines to VOIP and bought this phone. So far, despite a few problems, it's been a very good phone. But there wasn't a lot to choose from -- if ...
