Be aware there is no answering machine with this phone (Uniden TRU9465-2) [Posted on 2008-01-19]
First, the good news.
The display is excellent. The backlighting of the keys is excellent.
The batteries hold up very well.
Overall, the phone part is very good, although the range is a little short.
My old 2.4 GHz Panasonic phone would work 250 feet from my house. The Uniden, at 5.8 GHz loses signal after about 100-150 feet. So it is difficult to use in the yard. Disappointing.
The charger base for the 2nd handset would benefit from being weighted. It is very easy to knock off the bedside table when you grab the phone.
I already had a TRU9485-4WX and except for the short range, I really liked the phone. So we bought the Uniden TRU9465-2 as a gift. The picture looked 'just like' our phone, which does have an answering machine but this phone had only two phones. Just what we were looking for!
But I missed the part where there is no answering machine on this phone. It has 'voice mail' capability, where you can tie into your phone company's voice mail???
Yes ... I should have read the fine print.
But why in the world would a $79 phone not have an answering machine?
I felt this phone was a bit expensive when I thought it HAD an answering machine but I liked my existing phone.
Without an answering machine, this phone is WAY overpriced.

This is the third phone system like this that I own. They have functioned very well. I would buy this phone system again.
Works great in range - would like broader range [Posted on 2008-04-18]
I've had this phone for a while and it works great in range for the most part - however I had expectations of a broader range. I keep the base in my office in the back corner of the house - my house is only about 1000 sq ft - and will lose reception on the back patio - maybe less than 100 feet away.
It Has a Range of About 6 Feet [Posted on 2008-04-19]
I bought this phone system as a supplement to (and an upgrade to) my existing Panasonic 2.4 GHz phone system. I thought that the 5.8 GHz Uniden would have an even better range than the Panasonic. Boy was I ever wrong! The Uniden handset can barely reach a few feet from the base unit before it starts up with the crackling and static and dropping words. Sitting one room away (one small room away) the Uniden is just about unuseable. The Panasonic works great in the same space, so the problem is in the Uniden phone. What a disappointment and waste of money.
The Perfect Phone System [Posted on 2008-04-25]
This phone replaces the Panasonic system, which I returned to Amazon (and received full credit for...they always come through!) a month or so back.
I originally had a Uniden system with a base and one other station, which went dead after 3-4 years. I got "adventurous" and ordered the Panasonic as a replacement...what a mistake. I already wrote a review on that piece of plastic junk, so new use in rehashing it here. Besides, this is a review of the Uniden system, and in a word, it's "perfect."
The sound quality is outstanding, set up is intuitive and easy, the phone feels substantial without being bulky...and it works!!! Really, nothing more needs to be said...this phone is perfectly suited to my home and home office needs. I did learn one lesson though...stick with a winner. When this one bites the dust (and they all do at some point), I'll replace it with another Uniden system. I guess I can't give a better recommendation than that, can I?
