This product is called "Clear Sound"; however - this has the worse sound I've ever heard on a answering machine. The outbound message is so muddled is almost impossible to understand. The incoming messages don't sound much better. I wasted my time buying this product only to have to return it.

The most important feature I needed was having at least 2 outgoing messages - one for daytime hours ("We're here, just can't come to the phone...", one for after-hours ("We're closed, leave a message."). And for that purpose it works perfectly. Switching between messages is very easy - just push one button. Surprisingly, having two messages is a rare feature on answering machines - which are, themselves, rare. The only other one on Amazon that does this is over $200 so this is a great deal. The only complaint, the sound is a little tinny, which is amusing given the name of the device. But it works very well, and does it at a good price.

The automated voice commands are not very clear. Device works okay, but no better than the other brand I have which only cost ~ $15.

I bought this for my aunt because it had big numbers and seemed easy to use. My husband installed it, we tested it and all seemed well. Two weeks later she calls to say the machine isn't working. I asked what happened and she said her phones stopped working and when the phone company came ot they said there is a short somewhere. They traced it back to the answering machine. So this weekend I need to pick it up and return it.

This product was very disappointing. The sound quality was poor and the amplification was not adequate.

Bought this, it works perfectly! I can't complain, it lives up to it's claims. The audio, although people say is unclear have to realize that this is old tech, don't expect studio grade microphones or speakers coming out of this. The quality of the recording of the OGM (outgoing message) depends entirely on the environment, and level and distance of the source of the voice. Too close will cause your voice to clip, too far will not record properly. In terms of loudness, it's definitely very loud.Build quality wise, this was not made for large businesses, obviously the quality is mainly plastic. It was made for a home single user. As long as you don't drop it or drop anything on it, it should last for a long time.You can only hook up one phone line to it.I suggest reading the manual thoroughly before operating so you know what to expect, and you don't get frustrated at it. I read through the manual first, and had no frustrations operating or setting up the machine.Compared to the readily available AT&T (I owned a 1740 black model) and V-tech standalone Answering machines, I think I prefer this one.

This unit works. The big buttons help some. The voice quality is not great. OK for the money.

I have been trying to correct myself in spending too much time doing research/comparative reviews before buying any product, especially electronic. So wouldn't you know that the first time I simply go ahead and purchase a not-very-high-end or high-priced product without reading reviews, that I would wind up with a stinker.I wish that I had read JR's most useful negative review before I ever ordered this. Just read his, as it provides more details about how this unit is inferior than I'm willing to do.In short - clunky interface, esp at this price point, terrible recorded sound, minimal features.Not worth buying at any price, especially for professional office use.I'm going to return mine immediately to exchange for something with a better reputation.I'm also to write the manufacturer to suggest that they either create something worthwhile, or change their name from "ClearSounds®"

For the price, this standalone answering machine should've been superb compared to some combination phone/answering systems. Following are my findings:1) You must be subscribed to CID (Caller ID) for the day/time stamp to work,2) The buttons are big and clunky, like that you'd find on a Fisher-Price toy,3) Your recorded outgoing message sounds unnaturally bassy with a slight echo,4) You can record two separate outgoing announcements which are very easy to select,5) The pre-recorded outgoing announcements, of which there are two, are a bad, computer generated female voice, difficult to understand, and I can't imagine anyone actually using them,6) The digitized female voice is also used in the menus, and is difficult to understand, especially when retrieving messages remotely,7) The unit makes terrible feedback noises when the phone is picked up during an incoming call (this seems to happen just after the outgoing message and just before the machine begins the recording - about a 2-3 second window),8) The remote security code is 4 digits long (as opposed to 2 or 3 digits on most others),9) The toll saver feature is 3 rings if there are messages, 6 rings if no messages (as opposed to 2/4 on most others),10) The stored messages sound very clear,11) I expected more advanced options out of this standalone unit,12) The red, 2-digit LED display is always flashing. It alternates "A1" - "00" (announcement 1, no messages), or flashes "02" (2 messages, or number of messages stored). The point is, no matter what, it's always flashing,13) It has 30 minutes of recording time,14) The unit is basically very easy to use, but it's also very basic.15) When a call comes in, the outgoing message and the incoming message are played. There is no way to mute either, except to turn the volume to 0. (Some machines have a DND (Do Not Disturb) feature.)I run a business from my home office, and this definitely fails the test. The fact that this machine creates tremendous feedback when I pick up the phone after it starts recording means it is seriously flawed. I lost a potential lead as a result, so, you could say I've lost money by having this answering machine. I am returning it for a refund.

This is a well made product though the built-in voice response is, as others have noted, not good at all.
