Multi-member household seeks cordless phone with growth potential, good looks, and plenty of features. Sound like you? Consider the Motorola MD751 5.8 GHz digital cordless phone system.
Expandable by adding up to seven Motorola MD71 accessory handsets (sold separately) for a total of eight, the MD751 offers the features modern consumers want: visual call waiting and voicemail waiting indicator, Caller ID with a 50-number memory, hands-free handset-to-handset intercom and room monitoring, three-way conferencing, speakerphone, and selectable ring tones. What's more, the Motorola MD751 offers an easy-to-dial illuminated keypad and a backlit four-line LCD with helpful features, such as time and date display and easy-to-navigate icons.
A thoughtful battery meter lets you monitor the handset's standard battery (NiCD) charge, and a battery back-up (four AAA batteries, not included) ensures that you'll never completely run out of juice. The MD751 comes with a belt clip and is headset compatible (headset not included). It is also wall mountable for versatile placement anywhere in your home.

Dont be fooled by the name Motorola
I have had this phone for 6 months and it works -but the battery life is not good. The phones are now to the point that the battery life is very short. I expected much more with a product made by Motorola. I tossed my sony wireless for this one and wish I had not.
Do not buy this phone
The reception on this phone is so bad that my cell phone reception sounds better. People I was speaking with commented on the crackling sound and I often couldn't hear what they were saying because the sound faded out VERY frequently. This was not due to wireless interference,etc as I live in the country, far from anyone else. Also, the battery didn't hold a charge for very long. I could only tolerate 5 days with this phone before I finally gave up and returned it. I am now using my old cordless, which has very few of the bells and whistles, but has great sound quality, long range and no interference.
The bells and whistles on the phone are great. But who needs options if you can't use the phone for its intended purpose?
Terrible phone; sound is awful
I really like the way this phone looks and its heft. Too bad that the phone has horrible sound and is completely useless for that reason. My wife and I both had to throw up our hands after a single day of use and use our cell phones in order to carry on calls with friends and co-employees. You cannot hear half of what other people are saying (everything is very weak and scratchy) and you cannot be heard clearly by anyone you call (ditto). It is just as bad on the built in speakerphone or using a headset. Motorola should be ashamed of this one, it's just awful. I have already stopped using the two phones we bought, and replaced them with a competitor's. Save yourself the money and you will also save the incredible aggravation caused by this terrible phone. Did I mention that I hate this phone?
