Sanyo CLT-908 900 MHz Digital Spread Spectrum Cordless Phone – Customer Reviews
UNBELIEVABLE PHONE!!
-
I have a Sanyo model which is identical to this except it seems to be a slightly earlier model than the one pictured, but it's pretty much the same phone. This phone... is the toughest piece of equipment I've ever seen. My dad got it for my sister's birthday when cordless phones were a pretty new creation, about 6-7 years ago for $400. Let me tell you, this thing is unbelievable. This phone has been dropped on cement, lynoleum, thrown against walls, flipped in the air and landed on tables, dropped 20 ft. down a stairwell, literally hundreds and hundreds of times, and it STILL WORKS!! After only 2-3 hours of charging, it still has a life of well over 24 hrs! I've left it idle for 5 days, and still made several calls. The battery has NEVER needed a replacement. During this phone's life, it has been so severely mistreated that any other piece of electronics would have been destroyed long ago. It has come apart and pieces fell out, but they were just put back in and the case snapped back together, and it worked fine! The ringer has even changed its tone due to an accident that occured, but there's nothing wrong with that! I've taken this phone literally 2 miles from the house and it worked great! The speakerphone and intercom still work perfect. Almost every number button has been faded from so much use. The back of the phone is taped up to keep the battery inside, but that is my fault! I've TRIED to break this phone (within reason), and it slapped me in the face and said "HELL NO!".
All I have to say is, this thing is a BEAST! I'm trying to look for a new phone with caller ID on the handset, but I'm afraid I will never find another quite like this one! I respect Sanyo greatly for such an outstanding product.12/6/2004 12:00 AM | Rating:
Excellent line of cordless phones
-
I bought the next one up 937A which is exactly the same except that it includes a speaker phone ability on the handset(it works great and is crisp and clear with good volume and no need to shout to be heard either). I usedto have a SBC cordless that never worked properly, this is an excellentphone in every way and even CR gives it high marks. I can take the handsetacross the street to a park and walk at least a 1/4 mile(probably more) into the parkwith trees over head and I can still make a very clear phonecall(great for walking the dog or just relaxing in the park on a sunny day,no need to bring my cell phone), and the base is in my apartment on the12th floor. I love this phone. It is a good value too.

A good phone
-
IIt is a good phone with good sound and range.It's sister phone (looks just like it) is a speakerphone that received the highest ranking on cordless phone report.
The only trick -- itlooks like it has a lighted keypad but it doesn't.
Overall --definitely would recommend.Price is very good for a DSS phone.
