"Very nice home office phone"

I replaced my 5 year old AT&T corded two line phone with the Uniden 4096 when the LCD screen gave out. This is my primary office phone and I have two business lines running into the phone. The reason I went with the Uniden is that it was value priced and I really liked the idea of the cordless handset. (Didn't miss a call watching the NCAA tournament on the "big screen".)

I've been very happy with the phone. Both the corded base handset and the cordless handset have very clear reception. The speaker phone has very good volume and I have had no complaints from listeners when using the speaker phone. Putting callers on hold, switching lines, conference feature are all very easy to use. I don't use the answering machine as I have AT&T call notes.

My only complaint is the speed dial function is a bit cumbersome, it allows you to set up 100 names with up to two phone numbers per name. The two issues are - First, there is not a way to distinguish what the two numbers are i.e., cell, office, home, etc. , . The second issue is that if you have 100 names in your phone list you have to either scroll to a persons name starting at from the top of the list (A) or from the bottom of the list (Z). My solution is I've limited the number of names to my most important speed dials (in my case 11 names) and I use the first number as a office number and the second number as a cell.

Other than that I'm very happy with the system.

Terrible reception.

As a business, we need to have phones that are clear sounding. This product has poor reception, hard to hear the customer and the customer can't hear us clearly either.

    Comments about Uniden 4096 DECT 6.0 2-Line Corded/Cordless Telephone with Digital Answering System:

    Basically this is very good 2-line phone. However, this and other Uniden phones have critical problem; that is, there is no setting for adding 1 to the caller ID when redialing. Verizon requires (at least in where I live) adding 1 before 10 digit phone number for toll call. I remember Panasonics have such option, but Unidens don't. Redialing directly from call ID is impossible with this phone. You need to write the number down or memorize and dial manually. It's really inconvenient and not very good for business use if you receive many calls from new customers and need to return the calls.

      Was seeking a ONE-LINE phone with corded base for power failures, four extension handsets and built-in answering machine.
      Extra handsets were out of stock for the model I wanted, so I bought this TWO-LINE unit. Retrieving messages requires selecting line-1 each time.

      • Q:

        Just wondering if Item Number 797362 has a belt clip. We have to hand off the phone to quite a few people and the boss wants a phone with a phone hulster or belt clip.
        Asked on 8/17/2012 by Hunter.... from salt lake city

        1 answer

        • A:

          No. This unit's handset has a smooth back with no attachment available for a clip.
          If a belt clip is a necessity, you may want to consider the Panasonic KX-TG9333T or similar.

        If I purchase two new bases & one cordless will they work together? How much is just a base without the cordless?
        Asked on 6/11/2012 by Trisha

        1 answer

        • A:

          You cannot purchase just a base, unless you purchase it as a replacement directly from Uniden.

      • Q:

        I currently have a Uniden Model TRU9466 base + 1 handset. The handset no longer produces the caller id so I'm looking for a replacement. Will this 4096 base and handset work with the 5.8 base model I have? I want to leave the current base in place and put the new base on another desk with the handset in another office.
        Thank you.
        Asked on 6/11/2012 by Trisha

        1 answer

        • A:

          You cannot combine the two bases. You'll need to purchase a replacement for the bad handset if you want to keep that base.

          Answered on 6/11/2012 by Community Answer from None

      • Q:

        Your product details page says this phone has a "Base duplex speakerphone".

        Is the base speakerphone really full duplex? Or is it just "half duplex" like most other consumer speakerphones?

        Our business has 2 separater phone numbers for in and out going calls and rollover.
        If one line is being used and a incoming call comes in will the phone ring or do we just get a flash signal.

      • Q:

        1. If two people try to answer the same line, will it put the second person to answer into line two or will they both be answering the same line?

        2. Can the corded base and the cordless base be set up in different rooms, or do they have to be close to each other?

        3. If someone is on line 1 and a second tries to make a call will line one be unavailable to them? I work in an office and do not want someone to be able to pick up the same line and start dialing.

          No. It is a two line phone, as far as the phones are concerned your two lines are in use at that point. Your only options will be through your phone company; call waiting or voice mail.
