Amazon.com Product Description
The Uniden TRU8866 cordless phone system offers an attractive bundle of features with room to grow. 5.8 GHz digital signal transmission offers increased call clarity and security while the impressive caller ID capabilities ensure that you'll never miss a call or lose an important number. Plus, a duplex speakerphone in the base and a standard speakerphone in the handset provide hands-free conversation options. Housed in a professional-looking, no-nonsense black case, the phone's memory is shared between the caller ID log and the programmable memory dialing--100 names and numbers in the handset, and 100 more in the base unit. You can locate numbers using a alphabetic search tool similar to that of a typical cell phone, and the most commonly dialed numbers can be assigned to 10 speed dial presets accessed on the base unit. The TRU8866 offers room to grow. It's expandable to 10 handsets (model #TCX860, one included). With additional handsets, you can transfer calls, transfer memory locations, and even use them as an intercom around the house or as a room monitoring system (baby monitor). Additional features include conferencing, trilingual menu display options, distinctive ring tones, mute, hold, redial, and headset compatibility (headset sold separately). Even with additional handsets, the TRU8866 requires just one phone jack. Simply plug the base unit into a phone jack, and the additional handsets will configure themselves to "talk" directly with the base unit. What's in the Box

Nice 2 line phone October 3, 2008
Robert Tewksbury (San Diego, CA)
Like most of the Digital 5.8 Uniden cordless phones, this unit has great sound quality and low noise. Works perfectly within it's operationg range, that's a little better then average. I think the included hanset is slightly better then the other models in the series, a little better sound. I'm very happy with this unit!
On the negative the base lacks the registration option so other 5.8 models that don't fit in the charging base cannot be registered to the system. I have a couple of the flip phones I used with my old base and was unable to get them to register to this base (even when I connected it to the charging connections). Also the newest accessory handset for the 9000 series will work, but it's slightly larger and deosn't fit in the charging base. With force it will connect allowing it to register to the base, but cannot be charged because constant force is required for it to make contact. This handset will charge in the 9000 series base since it's only very slightly smaller and uses the same power adapter.
 Not Suitable for Business Phone Use! September 27, 2008
Alan Taylor (Chicago, IL United States)
This review is being written after two years of use in a busy restaurant and bar, so I've really put this system to the test. Though it has admirable voice quality, this system has so many quirks that it just shouldn't be considered as a primary business phone system. First and foremost, when you are on one of the lines speaking to a customer, and a call rings on the other line, the line you are speaking on gets constantly interrupted with momentary silencing of your voice so that the person on the other end of the line hears your voice dropping out every few seconds while the other line is ringing!!! This is an absolutely unforgivable flaw!
Uniden tech support told me that there is no way to disable this quirk either. You just have to live with it. For shame!
Also, once every few days, the phone system decides to reset itself without warning. So, the phone rings, you answer and it disconnects the person calling while you are greeted with the "Welcome" screen as the system resets itself. After about a minute or so, you're able to receive calls again. As an added bonus, it occasionally screeches super loud feedback into your ear instead of connecting you to the call you are answering. Seriously, it hurts your eardrums something awful.
The signal is VERY fussy too. It doesn't like working when near metal objects like restaurant refrigerators and other large appliances, nor does it work very well if any masonry walls are between you and the base.
Terrible phone system. I have a one line and two line phone system from Uniden and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Stay clear of this poorly designed, clearly inferior product.
 Lots of features in a small package September 21, 2008
Carla J. Schroder
I needed a two-line speakerphone, and this is what I bought. Audio quality is fine, and I can carry the handset outside and wander around my yard and still get a decent signal. There is a speaker on the handset and another one on the base station, and it also has a headset jack. Controls are pretty good and not too convoluted, nice readable amber screen. It does intercom, conferencing, voicemail indicator, phonebook, mute, do not disturb, one-button voicemail retrieval, individual ringer controls, and a bunch of other stuff. Two thumbs up.
Missing some critical items September 19, 2008
E. Miles (Phoenix AZ)
This phone has some nice features but missing some important quality. Issue number one: in order to avoid static on the phone line the base unit must be plugged directly into wall socket (per their techies). If you are like me and work from home, hence the need for 2 phone lines then you probably have lots of electronics and not enough wall sockets. The phone really sounds like you are on a 1950's party line when plugged into a standard electrical strip. Issue number 2: you can't turn off or down the intercom ring! Crucial in order to call my husband in the other room. The ring is loud and very annoying. Why when they have all the other ring options this was left off? Issue number 3: the microphone is extremely weak, every person I talk with, EVERY one says can you speak up. No way to do business.
So if you don't mind these issue go for it.
Simple Yet Effective September 10, 2008
Martial Arts Damsel (Cypress, Texas United States)
This phone is being used in a small business and has so far been working very well. Set up is extremely easy (did it without the manual). The sound is crisp and clear. One of the features I enjoy most is the fact that you can use certain features on the handset as well as the base. Last but not least....that wonderful feature..."the do not disturb button"...great for telemarketers and phone stalkers.
