This was an addon unit for an existing system. Have used panasonic KX-TG6502 system for a year and have experienced no problems. Reception is clear and adding a new phone number from one unit to all the rest is convenient. Minor annoyance is inability to erase old calls from all units at the same time. Entering numbers could be simpler, but not a big problem. I have had long term success with Panasonic phone products.

After purchasing this system with a total of four cordless handsets, I thought I had finally solved the problem of getting phones in all the bedrooms of my big old house. Unfortunately, I constantly get complaints from the people I am calling. "I can't hear you very well" "We must have a bad connection" and so on. I don't have time and can't afford to replace the whole system, so we are just putting up with it. NOT RECOMMENDED

This is the best phone for the money. I got 3 of them and they work flawlessly. The conversations are clear no matter where in the house are you located, including the basement. The base can support up to 4 devices and you can transfer the address book to all phones so you don't have to remember all the numbers either.

I bought this phone early on when it first came out. I have been a strong proponent of Panasonic cordless phones for at least 10 years, and this is at least the fourth or fifth one I have owned. I wanted this because it had 2-lines and worked on 5.8Ghz (and has speakerphones in the handsets).
It has all the right features, though it is a bit uglier than some of Panasonic's previous phones. Most importantly, PEOPLE DON'T HEAR ME WELL when I speak to them. The mic is not sensitive enough. I called Panasonic on this right up front, and they exchanged it no problem. But I continue to have the same problem. Especially when speaking in hushed (read tired) tones, people don't hear you at all. There is also a mild hiss in the background heard by the party you are speaking to (I know this since i have been on both ends of the line, e.g. when my wife calls me from home).
On the plus side, the battery lasts much longer than previous Panasonic models that were often sent out with substandard batteries in the box.
I am looking for a new phone now, since Panasonic hasn't come out with anything different. I have heard the Uniden is pretty good (I have a friend who owns it). But I really don't like the Orange screen, or the Black phone.
I wish we could get better 5.8Ghz phones multi-line phones, and better styled ones too. European phones look so much nicer (see Seimens products for England), but many of them have not been made to work with U.S. Frequency restrictions.

As usual, the Panasonic phone is a superb product:well designed, excellent feastures, solid quality, crystal clear sound and long battery life. This is the second Panasonic 2-line phone we have owned and have no complaints.
The answering machine works well on both lines and all set-up requirments were easy and clear.
All product's should be designed, manufactured and operate to this product's standard.

As other reviewers have noted, I encountered a problem with the unit receiving caller id. Even after disconnecting every other phone device in the house(all other telephones, computer fax modem, directv receiver, external caller id boxes) I still could not get the unit to receive caller id on either line. Previous cordless and caller-id units never had a problem
Customer support had me change a line setting (B to A linetype) which didn't help matters, so I packaged the unit up and returned it to staples. The AT&T EP5962 had no problem with caller id, but I would have preferred the Panasonic -- keys weren't as stiff as the AT&T.
A note for those looking at the AT&T EP5962 -- although the unit has a corded handset at the base, it does NOT function without power as a basic telephone. And for those with small kids, the corded handset can be removed with the base still functional (that is, no lines go off-hook)

I have a VOIP line and a backup landline; I had been through the nightmare of having two separate phones, and of always having the wrong one to hand, so I decided I was set on having a two-line phone. The traditional landline was to be bare-bones, so the phone system needed to have an integrated answering machine (I've since turned off the voice mail on my VOIP line as well). And it needed to be 5.8GHz so it wouldn't interfere with the Wi-Fi reception (or vice-versa).
Turns out that those requirements narrowed things down quite a bit--all the way, in fact. And the phone is not cheap. Still, it was the only one that did everything I wanted, so I sprung for it. I've had no complaints, or at least no serious ones. The menu interface could be better, but I've never met a cordless phone that got this right. The sound quality has been flawless, the two-line implementation is terrific and the blinking antenna is nice when you're searching for the phone in a dark (or cluttered) room.
I think the handsets could look more attractive; there's something clunky and last-decade about the styling. But functionally, this phone has been everything I hoped for.

There are, at this time, exactly two 5.8 GHz 2-line expandable phone systems -- this Panasonic and the Uniden TRU8866 -- and I found it frustrating to research them because they're new and there's not much information out there. So my two cents, should it be helpful...I bought this Panasonic 6500B and three handsets, played with them for a week, and called today for an RMA number to return them. I'm now evaluating the Uniden system, which I think I'll end up keeping.
(For reference, I'm migrating from a Siemens gigaset 2420, 2-line 2.4GHz system, amazon item B00004R7R1. It's noted for a few quirks, but it's been solid for 6 years and I'd easily favor it over the Panasonic.)
Pros:
-- you only have two options at present, so this phone does deliver 2-line 5.8 GHz functionality
-- blinking antenna for ringing/message was a nice touch
-- all of the basic stuff you'd expect...intercom, speakerphone, Caller ID, etc.
Cons:
-- poor sound quality, even compared to my 2.4GHz system -- there was a constant hiss even when standing near the base, and it wasn't line noise. (There is a voice boost/voice enhancer function, though even the manual notes that it might amplify any existing line noise you may already have.)
-- one 'feature' that tilted me toward the panasonic was a 'shared' phone directory among the handsets and base. It actually works like the Siemens - you have to manually copy phonebook entries from one handset to another, so keeping them all in sync is a pain.
-- The handsets didn't behave like extensions of the same line; when you answer a call on one handset, all of the others display 'missed call', which you must then clear from EACH handset. So I always seemed to pick up a handset with a few missed calls, which were actually answered on a different handset.
-- Lack of an aux port so the phone can catch the distinctive ring and shuttle a call to the fax (btw, the Uniden doesn't have this either)
-- Misc. minor annoyances: Panasonic still uses a two-digit code for the answering machine, as it did ~15 years ago. Only eight ring tones (4 ring/4 melody), none of which were great.
-- basic interface is just crude compared to other modern phones/cell phones (I'm a techie with a UI/usability background, so I do have bias there).
Overall, I found this Panasonic to be a step down from the Siemens. I've only had the Uniden for a couple days, and I'd certainly say it's the better option of the two.

I've owned several multi handset systems over the last 4 years beginning with the product the started it all off, the Siemens 2420. Don't even get me started on how bad the Siemens cordless handset reception is. Everyone who uses one knows they are pathetic. Other than the poor reception, the Siemens 2420 and 8825 still have the best menu system and setup of any multi handset system, Panasonic 6500/6502 included!
Just so everyone understands, Panasonic, Uniden and most companies (I believe Vtech/AT&T included) use the same chipsets from [...] This is why the ergonomics of most of these systems are the same or similar. I'll list the advantages and disadvantages I see in the DSP Group implemenation as compared to Siemens way of doing things....
Advantages:
-Excellent handset reception (even the 2.4Ghz models are OK and do not experience much interference) 5.8 is very clear with no interference in my home.
-handset range is actually better than I suspected at 5.8Ghz (remember the higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength
and generally the shorter the range).
-Room/baby monitor
Disadvantages:
-no handset naming
-handsets show missed call even if the call is answered by another handset.
-no password lockout for settings (such as answering machine PIN). Can't lockout the kids from being nosey.
-only supports 2 digit answering machine PIN
-When remote checking answering machine it does not support reading of caller ID info for message (how many people say "call me" but you don't remember their #)?
-overly complex menu to manipulate answering machine from remote phone.
-does not set time by using caller ID info
-4 handsets only
-True Speech voice compression quality is horrible even if set to "enhanced" mode.
So, reception alone is enough to convince me to keep this system and toss my aged Siemens. Ergo-wise, I will definitely miss my Siemens. Unfortunately Siemens Corporate tells me they will not have a new phone system until the second half of 2005.
Sorry that this review turned into a comparison to Siemens, however I feel that DSP Group, Panasonic, Uniden, etc. who support them need to get of their rocker and begin to expand the feature-set of the chipsets to support features that people can really use!!!

Surprisingly, "it works" is fairly high praise in the world of modern cordless phones. At least, that seems to be the case based on my own experience. Nevertheless, this phone does work, and it works fairly well. As another reviewer mentioned, there really aren't very many options in the market for 2-line 5.8GHz phones. Even fewer if you want an integrated answering system (the Uniden TRU8866 mentioned in the other review doesn't have one). Those were exactly the features I was looking for. So, despite the somewhat mixed reviews on this product, I took the plunge and bought it.
I haven't experienced any problems with audio quality, as some other reviewers have. Maybe my standards are just lower, but it sounds good to me. I do agree that the interface is a little clunky, especially for operating the features on the base unit. More than once now I've accidentally disabled answering on line 1 (which I do want answering on) or enabled it on line 2 (which I don't want answering on). It would be a lot nicer if they just had completely distinct on/off buttons and status indicators for the separate lines.
But honestly, I've experienced so many truly horrible cordless phones that I'm actually pretty happy with this one. It may be a sad state of affairs, but we take what we can get...

I bought this phone to overcome the WiFi networking problems I was having: if I was working over the WiFi with my laptop and got a telephone call, my 2.6 GHz phone would interfere with the signal, and I would get disconnected. For that purpose, I am very satisfied. I also really like the speakerphone operation, and the range of the phone around the house.
I also bought two other sets to interoperate with this base station. Because of the phone's range, I am able to place handsets around the house without cabling - very nice.
Some others have mentioned that the voice level is too low for them. I have not found this to be a problem.
If there is any deficiency, it is that multiple handsets do not interoperate fully. As an example, they all show how many calls were missed while I was away; but if I clear that message on one handset, it doesn't clear on all of them. I have to go around to each handset and clear it. Also, the phone books are not synched: you have to add numbers to each phone.
I would still recommend the phone system, especially for those that use WiFi/802.11 wireless networking.
I also bought two other sets to interoperate with this base station. Because of the phone's range, I am able to place handsets around the house without cabling - very nice.
Some others have mentioned that the voice level is too low for them. I have not found this to be a problem.
If there is any deficiency, it is that multiple handsets do not interoperate fully.

I bought this phone to overcome the WiFi networking problems I was having: if I was working over the WiFi with my laptop and got a telephone call, my 2.6 GHz phone would interfere with the signal, and I would get disconnected. For that purpose, I am very satisfied. I also really like the speakerphone operation, and the range of the phone around the house.I also bought two other sets to interoperate with this base station.

Великолепно
My first 2-Line wired/wireless phone system was the Siemen's 2420. It was sleek, elegant and the interface was clean and intuitive. Although I was happy, the sound quality was always bad. People said I sounded like I was in a barrel when speaking on the cordless units. The electronics were terrible and it literally began to disintegrate, piece by piece, beginning with the readouts.
I then purchased the AT&T E2562 2.4 GHz DSS 2-Line Expandable Cordless Phone with Answering System and Corded Base. I'm old enough to still have blind faith in the 'AT&T' name. The phone system was ugly. The interface was non-intuitive and frustrating. The sound quality was mediocre. The answering system periodically garbled messages and cut people off. It was terrible and I was unhappy.
My current phone system is the Panasonic KX-TG6500. It is not elegant, but the design is fun in a 'high-tech' way. The desired features are there and logically accessible. It has a solid feel. The sound quality is excellent. It is a good phone system and I am happy again.
