NTL VS2002 Trio

I've got one of these NTL VS2002 Trio, the handsets are too small and shiny, it doesn't nestle comfortably between jaw and shoulder. Speaker facility okay for you to hear but not for your caller or who you called. If not using Speaker you can hardly hear. Troubleshooting chapter too concise. It's almost like they've made it to go in you pocket rather than fit from ear to mouth.

The NTL VS2002 Trio Cordless Phone was the third cordless phone that I've owned but also the worst.

I bought my VS2002 in January 2006 because I wanted a DECT phone with three handsets and this was the most reasonably priced at the time. It was easy to set up and use for basic phone calls, and the battery never died on me whilst I was making a phone call, unlike the previous two cordless phones that I've owned.

The reason that I wouldn't recommend one to anyone else is partly the fact that it broke after a year and a half but more importantly the fact that I found the answer phone so hard to use. The labeling on the buttons wasn't clear, the user interface is counter-intuitive and the instruction manual badly written. Even the simple task of playing back messages from callers was tiresome in its complexity and I completely gave up trying to reset date/time and the answer greeting each time the base had been disconnected from the mains.

I think the best way for me to sum-up the NTL VS2002 Trio Cordless Phone would be "cheap, but nasty"
