make life easier 
2008-04-28
I've had this phone system for a few years and think it is terrific. I've had little problem with the battery life. After a year I just replace the battery and it seems like a new phone again. The sound quality is great. It makes life easier to put additional phone extensions in areas where you have no phone outlet. I just purchased my sixth handset so I can have phone access throughout my house.
nice phone .decent features 
2008-03-10
the phone is great it has some nice features which you can see on the panasonic site. i would like to use this review to explain why amazon is the best and the most dependant merchant out there.
i bought this phone to gift it to a relative.
however when i got the phone i just gift packed it and gave ti to my relative as a gift.
when he tried to use it he said that the docking base did not power up.
i immidiately contacted amazon about this issue also mentioning how upset i was.
amazon being the great vendor it is immidiately processed a full refund of my account.
i was plesantly suprised by their candid and hassle free response.
i am now a devote follower and referrer of amazon who i think has the best customer service.
i must mention that when i buy a product from amazon i make sure that it is sold by them and not by some other vendor on amazon.not sure of how well that works.
Could be better after all these years!

I love all the features on this two line system which is why I originally bought it, however, I have had this expensive system for many years and had trouble with it from the beginning. After calling many times without satisfaction, my warranty expired and I was 'stuck'. I kept it just to 'wear it out'; then I needed additional handsets! The original one of two, cannot be heard except on speaker, which is the one I was trying to get fixed for so long.
I'm surprised that the cost is still so high after so long, and the volume on the handsets is still not loud enough. I hate getting rid of something that cost so much, which is why I thought the new handsets would be a better investment than purchasing an entirely new system. Now, I'm stuck with an additional two handsets that cost me another $175.00!!
Great Phones -- Had them for 5 years 2008-02-15
I own 4 of these phones, and I have been very satisfied with them. I replace the batteries about once every 2 years. The range on the phones is excellent, as I have 4 floors in my house, and the base is located in the top floor office. I use the phones with Optimum Voice and it is ideal for VOiP. There is no interference with my wireless router which is also broadcasting at 2.4Ghz. The speaker phone on each hand set is excellent, as is the speaker phone on the base. Only downside is that you have to program each handset with the preset numbers. It would be nice to have the base hold those numbers and automatically update the handsets. The phone has a great feature where numbers can be added to presets from the caller id log. Adding new phones to the network is simple. I think all you have to do is drop the phone into the base once, and it is automatically registered with a designated number. Like I said, I have 4 floors in my house, so the intercom feature is very useful. All you have to do is punch in the other phone's identity number to use the intercom. I believe you can add up to 8 handsets.
Overall, the phone is great. There are more expensive and newer phones out there, but I have no plan to upgrade at the moment.
Panasonic Cordless Phone 2008-02-06
In my opinion, best cordless Panasonic ever made. Purchased this to expand an existing system. Good price, good delivery, as promised.

Panasonic offers this KX-TGA270S 2.4GHz Cordless Handset. You can use multiple handsets without worry of cross-talk or eavesdropping because the FHSS technology randomly changes frequencies several times per second. This Handset features Privacy Mode. You can block all other handsets from joining in on the conversation. This feature automatically shuts off when the call is completed. 4-Way Conferencing allows for conference in one outside line on up to 4 handsets simultaneously with the MultiTalk Expandable System. You can quickly and easily conference in on an existing conversation between another handset and an outside line. From the base unit or a handset, you can call any other extension in the system. From the base unit or a handset, you can call any other extension in the system. 4-Line Backlit LCD on Handset shows Call Status, Programming Options, Directory Items, and if you subscribe, up to 3 lines of Caller ID information, so there's no need for scrolling. Backlighting greatly aids visibility especially in low light areas. Share the names and phone numbers programmed in one handset with any other handset in the system. 6-Selectable Ring tones allow for personalizing your ring tone to alert you when there is an incoming call.
Extra Handset 2008-01-19
We have used this Panasonic phone for several years. Have not had any problems so far. Works really well!
Best cordless system available today 2007-12-25
I have been using this system in my business for quite a few years now. Both of my handsets were giving me a problem because the number keys had basically worn out from use, and so I started shopping for a new system. I tested pretty well all of the new systems currently available, including Panasonic's, and was surprised and disappointed to discover that none of them had more than half the range from the base unit as my trusty old 270S's did!
Since the base unit of the system still functions perfectly, I was very happy to discover that handsets for the system are still available, and so I replaced the worn out ones with two new ones.
I cannot understand why none of the new systems perform as well as this old one, and am not used to electronics communications technology going backwards, but it seems that it has. I am afraid that Panasonic has probably stopped making these or will stop making them soon. It will be unfortunate because they are so much better than anything else that is currently available.
not good... 2007-11-06
teh problem is that with multiple lines, you cannot be heard by the other party. It seems that I am always having to scream into the phone, to be heard. Save yourmoney and look elsewhere...
GREAT PHONE 2007-08-16
I ALREADY HAD THE BASE UNIT AND ONE EXTENSION. THE EXTENSION PHONE BROKE SO I BOUGHT A UNIDEN SET WHAT A MISTAKE. SO I BOUGHT ANOTHER KX-TGA270S EXTENSION WORKS GREAT IN MULTI LEVEL HOME AND OUTDOORS. I AM GOING TO GET AN OTHER ONE.
