Very Disappointed [Posted on 2007-12-20]
I bought this set to replace my old Siemens set that was damaged in a fire. I was very happy with the original system, but I paid the same price for this set years after buying the first set. Usually electronics drop in price, so I figured this would be a nice set. Wrong! Has much fewer features than the original set. Look elsewhere.
If you can afford the very best, this made in Germany phone is it! [Posted on 2007-12-28]
If you are willing to pay for the very best DECT 6.0 phone system, this made in Germany product line by Siemens is what you want.
This system exceeds expectations. More features than you will bother to learn, yet the basic functions are the same as your cell phone so it is natural to operate.
The black model is advertised as tougher and spill resistant so I purchased the black ones. The only way to actually touch one before purchase was to inspect one in Bon Marche in Paris. There seem to only be web based merchants selling it in the US. Probably because it cost twice the usual Chinese junk sold by the usual suspect brand names.

Do not buy this item from Amazon. They ship it via DHL. [Posted on 2008-01-10]
The item itself is not a problem, buying it from Amazon and getting it shipped via DHL is the problem. Until Amazon agrees to use another carrier, I would stay away. Any electronic item shipped via DHL will breakdown because of the way DHL delivery people mistreat packages.
Headphone jack on bottom - Proprietary battery [Posted on 2008-02-09]
OK, first I want to talk to the genious who put the headphone jack on the bottom of the phone. You have to remove your headset to put the phone in the charger. Are you kidding me? At more that 3X the price of other brands, I expected a high quality phone but got this piece of junk instead. The description leads you to believe the case is ruggedized with rubber. Not so, there's a thin band of rubber on the edges only - other than that it's plastic everwhere. It also claims to be water and dust resitant. How is that possible with a cheap plastic back cover with a 1" hole and no gasket? The voice quality is tinny when using the phone's speaker. There is a annoying delay when pressing buttons and the phone keeps ringing when you pick up an extension for a few seconds. And worst of all, it uses a proprietary battery. If you must have a Siemens phone get the S series that uses rechargeable AA batteries.
Phone works great except that...... [Posted on 2008-03-29]
The message light does NOT work on some E450 phones. The base is the problem and Siemens is aware of this problem and has no fix at this time but they claim to be investigating the issue and will replace it. The base needs better feet. The base slides easily when placing the phone back on to it. Ringer is not loud anough.
