Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 4 out of 5

The Walmart associate helped me order online for site to store in the location and made sure my billing information was no longer available on the computer when I was done. I was disappointed that there was no answering machine on the phone included. But overall a great product. I am not the best with new technology. So I called tech support at Panasonic. They got my cell phone linked in no time. I think I am in love!

This is the third link to cell phone that I tried. The first one that meets all expectations. I live in a rural area where my cell phone signals do not work well in my home. I place the cell phone in a high area away from computers and just keep it charged up (on top of the refrigerator) and the reception is great on the panasonic phone. I am so glad I bought this product. Now I can use my cell phone features at home where I need them the most. As well the panasonic phones have always been superior products.

I am returning this product to store. I did not receive any instructions in box on how to link cell phone to phone that is the main reason I bought it. It was either a manufacturer error or this product was a return. The phone works great but I need the link to bluetooth feature

It works as advertised. My family loves this phone. Panasonic could make this product perfect if it could be used for more than one line at a time. If they did I would buy another one for my parents. One of the main reasons I went with a Panasonic phone is that my old cordless phone was Panasonic and has worked marvelously for umpteen years.

Overall Rating: 3 out of 5 3 out of 5

I liked that you could link it to more than one cell phone and that it had the port for a headset and a handle to hook to your clothes so that it could be completely hands free. The night mode was also good. But it was hard to link to cell and it was noisey especially when you walked into the room with the other handset. Also it should come with at least 3 handsets.

Works as described. Helps poor cell reception fairly well. If you are using to call via your cell phone you still need the cell phone if the call your making needs you to input numbers like calling your bank of credit card company or even anyone that has an extension.

Good Product.

Panasonic KX-TH1212B With 6 Handsets Linked, 01/09/2009

This Panasonic Connect To Cell System performs up to my expectations! It does not drop calls and its range is far better than I would have given it credit. I had no problems pairing up two Motorola Z6tv cell phones that are linked to six handsets. They all work perfectly. In short, I placed the base unit on top of a hutch and there is where it has been since its installation. The cell phones are within 13 feet of the base unit. Phone calls from the street in front of my house have been made, with better clarity than talking through the cell phones that are linked. I am happy.

There is only one place in my house that I can get cell phone reception and that is at the kitchen window and if I move around much the reception is degraded. Now when I drive into my driveway my cell phone is picked up by link 2 cell, via Bluetooth. I walk into the house and set my Razr V3xx near the Kitchen window, sometimes I charge the phone also, and walk away knowing that all my cell phone calls can be answered using the cordless handsets that are scattered throughout my house. My wife does the same thing when she gets home because the Link 2 Cell will handle up to two cell phones at one time. The range of the handsets is much better than any thing that I have ever used and totally interference free. Usually I turn off my cell phones when I go to bed each night and if someone really needs me they will call my land line. If you don't turn your cell phone off when you go to bed you might have an experience like I just had. I got up last night at 3:am to let the dog out and I thought it was lightning at the kitchen window. The blue light on the Razr that blinks when Bluetooth is engaged was so bright in a dark house the space shuttle could see it, I turned the phone off.
I kept some of the other regular and cordless phones in different rooms of the house and they only ring when a land line call comes in. I have not figured out how to make a call from the cell phone address book, so I go to the address book in the cell phone and look up the number and dial it into the handset to make the call. The hand sets are small, lite, and comfortable to use and a small foot print on the end table in the living room. Walmart had the best price, $88.00 just before Christmas 08 and then I got an email from Paypal announcing if I shopped Walmart online and paid with paypal I would get $20.00 credited to my paypal account, well that was all the push I needed to make the purchase. The batteries are two common AAA Ni-MH that can be easily replaced, charges without memory, and have a great standby time.

Phenomenal Phone, 01/01/2009

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5

This phone was a gift to my family who only have cell phones and who are always getting disconnected or having to repeat things due to poor quality phones and/or getting cut off completely by a battery needing to be recharged. It worked so well, right out of the box that it was scary. It also worked on my ATT GoPhone which has Bluetooth. I would recommend this product to everyone who has a Bluetooth enabled cell phone with or without a landline. It makes calling as easy as having a landline and the quality of the sound reception is excellent and is fantastically improved over just a cell phone while using the cell phone service to make long distance calls. If you have a landline get the caller id service added so that it will announce your callers with Talking Caller id. Tons of useful bells and whistles.

Product works extremly well. Easy to set up, good sound quality, and range is better than bluetooth earpieces on the market. The only problem I have had (which is not the fault of the phone system) is walking into the house on a call with a bluetooth earpiece. It conflicts with the phone system and requires a few minuters to reset after entering the house. I highly recommend this system.

I have bad cell phone reception at my house and I don't always remember to drag my PDA phone around the house with me, so I was missing calls or dropping calls. This product is great because I can put the cell phone in an area of my house where I have good reception and still be able to hear the phone ring and take calls without drops. Sound is great, links with Bluetooth very nicely, hand set battery life seems really good, this product has solved all my phone problems at home.

With this product I can finally get rid of the land line and save myself hundreds of dollars per year. When I drive into garage, the base unit connects to my cell phone in my truck. So, I leave my cell phone in my truck and have phone hand sets throughout the house to receive or make calls thru my cell phone. The quality of the calls is excellent. This product should virtually eliminate all land line usage. It was easy to set-up. I purchased additional hand sets to complete my phone system. This is a great product and great value. It will pay for itself in less than three months.

The phone is good and the bluetooth connection locks in as soon as you are with-in distance. To me the bad part is, the noice when on the phone and the ring the cell phone takes when a call comes in. In general the phone solves de problem of looking for the cell phone while in the house. Very easy to set up, and with little getting use, you are able to use your land line as well as your cell phone.

Excellent product. Once paired, it would connect automatically once your cell phone gets in range.
When connected, still able to talk on the cell phone.
I bought this product coz we don't have a landline, and with a 2-sotry home, it was a pain carrying the cell everywhere. Now I just leave my cell in one place and answer from either handset 1 downstairs or 2 upstairs. Ringer loud enough to be heard around house.

If you want to eliminate your home phone and find a cellphone inconvienent to use, this is the answer! Just set it up in a good reception location and your done! When you drive in your garage, it automatically links and you are on a regular phone. Separate tone for each phone (two). Very easy to set up, but read the instructions for location. A great way to get rid of a landline.

We live in a metal building out by the river and only get cellular service if we sit by the window or door. We bought this unit and hooked it up and it's been great.We have a two story house and it works every where with no problems. The sound on the phone is good. The battery life is good. Only thing so far is there is a small delay when you pick up a call. But making a call is no problem. It was $10.00 cheaper at Wal-Mart and well worth the wait. I highly recommend it!!!!!!

I've read other people's review on this product with mixed result. But I DO need something that will allows me to call using the cell phone with the ease of using a traditional cordless handset. There are 2 products out there that fill this profile. My phone is not on the compatible phone list but I give it a go anyway. Surprisingly, the setup was very easy (after reading the manual) and the call quality was good. I am not sure why other users have difficulties, but I've great experience with this product. This product allows me to get rid of my landline altogether and save some money despite the fact that I've to use some more air time on my cell.

Poor Performance..., 10/13/2008
By TWGorilla, Vidalia, LA
Overall Rating: 3 out of 5 3 out of 5

Firstly it wasn't hard to setup with two different cell phones and my land line. I use a Razor 3v and a Blackjack II on it. Works as advertised incoming calls are anounced with a computer voice on all three lines. I can choose which line to place a call. The speaker phone on each handset seems to be a major power drain...with only about 20 minutes of talk time with a FULL charge. I am using a headpiece now and that works ok. I am dissapointed in the batteries that came with it won't hold a charge or that it doesn't have an answering machine built in as advertised. But it does have a clear and above level loudness for voice calls.

I would recommend this product to anyone that has a family member on your same cell provider and can use the free calling between users. One of the really great features is the talking caller-id, it will announce the call if there is an id and not a blocked call. I have a different system by another company and this system works much better. Love it.

I have had it for 10 days and this phone drops calls all the time. My $10 GE cordless works better than this!!
I am a gadget lover so when I saw this phone on sale for $88 I was really excited and bought it online and had it shipped to my nearest Walmart. It was easy to instalal and it looks very good. I have hooked up my cellphone to the base with Bluetooth. It drops the bluetooth calls also. I am not happy
