 Functional, if cheap feeling Sep 11, 2009
For some reason it is incredibly hard to find a plain black corded phone that offers caller ID capabilities. This was one of the few we found that didn't have terrible reviews. The phone functions fine, sound quality is OK. The only real negative is the caller ID screen. Looked at from an angle, it is unreadable. You have to look at it straight on to see the number and name clearly. This means my tall husband is always bending over to see the caller ID on our wall mounted phone. Oh, and the cord provided for the phone jack is too long for a wall mount, so if you want to use this phone on the wall, you'll need to get a shorter cord somewhere else.
 My review Sep 10, 2009
This phone works fine, however the caller ID does not work. When someone calls the screen simply stays blank. Since this is only the kitchen phone and I only use it to answer the phone right away when Im standing next to it or to make a quick call, I do not consider it a big deal. I can live with that. However, I would not recommend this item. I only bought this phone because I wanted a wall-mount phone for the kitchen and I didn't want to pay very much. I got what I paid for in this instance.

 Jwin Black Corded Phone with Caller Id Jul 18, 2009
We have only had the phone for a month but so far it works perfectly. Phones like this one are very hard to come by so I'm happy to have found this one.

 Defective Phone May 15, 2009
This phone was working for a little bit of time and then, well, the problems started happening. First I had volume drops where the person I called couldn't hear what I was saying (they would say that I sounded very faint like I was far away, kind of like when you talk through tin cans on a string). Then, I would start getting periodic static and sound pulses, kind of like that sound from the movie Contact that Jodie Foster was in. It started sounding like aliens were eavesdropping on my conversations. Finally, I decided to bite the bullet and get a new phone, and lo and behold, the problems all ended. And this phone ended up in the recycle bin. End of story.

cheap phone- barely passable Jul 28, 2008
The first one I received was dead on arrival and I returned it. The screen is extremely difficult to read. Contrast settings are available, 1-8. It is not visible at all on the lower settings. On 7 or 8 one can see the readout but the background of rows of "8"'s also becomes darker making it very difficult to decipher the information on the screen, i.e. 888888888888888 is seen on each row. On the loudest setting the volume is only fair.
