Intercom - S. Dascoli, Jun 06, 2008

I purchased these wireless intercoms almost 2 years ago and they work fine. My elderly mother lives downstairs from me and that's how we communicate to each other. I am thinking about purchasing another set for our second home.

Very pleased after several months - Gregory Haines MD, May 26, 2008

After reading several negative reviews, I'm surprised and maybe just lucky? I have two units that have been flawless. The battery life is great. They have been left on overnight and even over the weekend and are still using the original batteries. The sound quality is excellent. The distance is only about 30 feet in my office. I'm now expanding personnel and office space and going to buy two more units to add to the system. I don't know about long term durability. I tried a pair of Westinghouse intercoms and returned them since they didn't work after about 20 minutes of use. Replaced them with the Recorders and am very pleased so far.

Solved the problem - Leslie J. Toomey, Apr 06, 2008

Great product, works just as promised. Very portable and dependable. Only downside is volume. Very loud even on the lowest setting. (4 settings for volume provided) Other than that - Great value.

Awful documentation, bad packaging, not compatible - Thomas J. Glover, Mar 31, 2008

In all the years and hundreds of products that I have purchased from Amazon, these "Reporter" and "Chamberlain" items rank as the worst products I have ever purchased. The manual is nothing more than a couple of pieces of paper and is useless. The packaging is so poor and the product itself is not even labeled so that you can figure out what item on your order to return!! The product descriptions are so badly done that it is difficult to tell which products are compatible...as a result I ended up ordering two incompatible systems. I am returning on system and trying to get the other to work...or it will go back too. I was never able to get the system to anything but beep. Other reviews here sounded good but this product was nothing but frustration for me. The only saving grace is Amazons fantastic return policy. Amazon, you get 10 gold stars in my book!

Reporter Wireless Intercoms - D. Houston, Dec 18, 2007

I have 9 of these units around my law office in Louisville and all 9 have always worked great. Reception is always good and I run 6 of the 9 units on AC adapters to avoid any needs for batteries. As for the remaining 3 units, I do run them on "AA" batteries and just replace the batteries twice a year when we change our clocks (Usually changes are not needed, but I change them anyway, just like the smoke detectors etc). The reason I opted for these units over cheaper units is the range. My experience has been that the true range of any wireless unit is much less than whatever the manufacturer claims. I divide whatever range the manufactuer claims by 5 and consider that the true range in a downtown metro environment. We are in an old building with lots of concrete and brick and steel, and I wanted the best range I could buy. These have worked fine for 2 years now at 200-220 foot range and I have no complaints. Another feature I like is that these units form their own "closed" network with each other, which prevents people in surrounding buildngs from snooping as much as they otherwise would.
