loser ! [Posted on 2007-02-19]
I, too, bought this phone with 3 extensions based on reputation and features. The range of the cordless handsets is mediocre (compared even to my old cheap Vtech). Worst of all, the handsets won't hold a charge ! Even after overnight on the charger, I pick up a phone to answer it, and get beeping for low battery.
There is something bad with the circuitry, because I bought a NEW battery for a handset ... and it is somewhat better, but still runs out of gas after only 40 minutes or so of talking.
I'm tossing it out
Don't buy the Motorola MD71 [Posted on 2007-03-13]
I purchased this system 8/05 with two handsets. Within 18 months, the handsets began to behave erratically. First, the ringing would go on after the base phone was picked up. Next, the handset would signal "out of range" even when inches away. I tried to reset the system but unplugging it; the two handsets just died.
Please save yourself a headache and resist purchasing this utter P.O.S. Shame on Motorola for despoiling their brand in such a cheesy fashion
DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE SYSTEM [Posted on 2007-03-21]
Have had my Motorola system for well over a year now. Many, many complaints:
1. the handsets buzz
2. battery life is bad - one of the handsets now lasts about 3 minutes
3. no headset plug on the base unit, which I have to use often because the handsets are so bad.
4. You can't read the display on the base unit unless you stand over it and look straight down.
5. If you take the time to assign names to all of your handsets, you lose the names when the power goes out! This happens even if you put batteries in the base unit.
6. The headset jack on the handset units is nestled into a soft plastic area. Some headsets also have a soft area on the male piece that plugs in. Two soft areas do not connect well... the headset falls out. I finally found a headset that stays plugged in.

Great phone! Works well. Only drawback is how it is fastened to the wall is not very strong and I'm afraid it will fall off.
