We wish to buy a new cordless phone and I figured that someone here may be able to recommend a really good phone that also has a reasonable price tag.

Some of the higher end Uniden ones are good.

I like Uniden too, as well as Panasonic. Stick with any good brand and you shouldn't do too bad. Actually any that will automatically turn on when picking up a call, the one I have now doesn't do that and it's annoying since I always forget.

DSS!!!

We decided on Uniden, which we bought yesterday. Charged the batteries overnight and all working great. Thank you for the advice.

What kind did you get, a single unit or expandable type?

The one we have which is now over a year old has a base unit with an extra phone, of course those types can be extended I think up to five total extra phones throughout the house.

It's a 2 phone set - a base unit and an extra phone. Works great!
