Customer Reviews

Early failure
The Diverse 6350 was a Which? best buy and is one of very few phones that offer fixed-line capability (essential for emergency calls during a power cut) together with an answerphone and remote handsets. However, the answerphone quality is only average. Worse, after less than 2 years it has developed a fault which renders the remote handsets unuseable. I have little option but to buy another one - I hope it performs better.

Looks good - sounds terrible
This phone has proved to be a great disappointment. I needed an answer machine that I could access remotely (as most of these phones do), but it was crucial that I could have clients leave messages while I was on location so I could reply to their requests a quickly as possible. The incoming message recording is absolutely appalling, nine messages out of ten are completely intelligible - and I mean unrecognisable as English speech. I tried everything. For a time I though it may have been electrical interference from my computer and another DECT phone I have on the desk - but removing the phone from these possible sources of interference proved fruitless. The phone would still not record with any semblance of clarity. As I rely on this phone so much for recorded messages, this means it's absolutely worthless to me; I now have to purchase another answer machine/phone and hope this one is better. Great for Amazon (I keep buying phones) expensive for me. Don't buy it if your messages are important.

A wonderful system
I have had this system for about 3 months now and it has performed flawlessly. I have even added 2 new remote handsets. The base station looks very good and I paticularly liked the ability to transfer the phonebook on my mobile SIMM directly to the base station via its SIMM slot. The answerphone is also excellent with good audio quality. The dect handsets are particularly nice with a good LCD screen having large easily readable text and backlit with a pleasing blue light. They display the time when 'on the hook' The build quality is excellent and all buttons have a metallic finish, are positive in operation and of a good size.

A great home phone.
