This review is from: Panasonic KX-TG4053B DECT 6.0 PLUS Expandable Digital Cordless Answering System with 3 Handsets & Range Extender (Electronics)
I bought this phone because I needed a phone that would give me better range than my panasonic 5.8gHz model without the interference with my computer equipment. I live in a pretty good sized house, ( 3 stories, 6000 sq. ft., lots of steel too). My 5.8 gHz model didn’t quite cut it for range from one side of the house to the other. I really started seeing problems when they installed my wireless network for the house. I did some research and found out that the interference issue was common with 5.8 gHz and the wireless router because they operate on the same bandwidth and therefore can have some interference issues. As for the range, I was out of luck until I found this phone that has an included ” range extender “. Set-up for the phone was very easy, ( 6 steps including ” insert batteries and charge for 7 hours”). I put the range extender at about the distance where my 5.8 gHz started to fuzz out. This is easily installed as well. All you need is a power outlet, no phone jack. After the charging period, I tried the phone everywhere in the house with no issues. I can even go down to the lake to watch the kids with no issues. Also, from reading the directions, I noted that you can add one more range extender to increase your range even more. I think panasonic really got the idea right when they made this phone and included the range extender. I would have to say that my only disappointment is the handset display size and that it is not in color. If you are looking for a solid phone system with great range and no computer interference issues, you can’t go wrong with this phone. Buy it! You won’t be sorry.

I’m only using my new KX-TG4053B for a few weeks and thus far it meets all my expectations.
I live in a two story concrete home with a reinforced concrete floor between the floors. With my previous phone reception in the upstairs bedroom was weak as the base unit was in the ground floor.
The new KX-TG4053B enables me to put the range extender at the top of the stairs and the reception in excellent.
We (my wife and myself) are low-tech phone users and probably will never use all the features that this phone provides so my review relates to the most important features:
- Clear sound
- Ease of installation and use
- Large and bright dispaly, large lit keys and most important large font.
- Clear speaker
All these features are of very high quality.
This is a very good phone.

we purchased this panasonic phone set to replace an older set that has worked great for about 6+ years. the range & clarity on these phones are much better than the set we retired. I was so impressed I ordered a set for my parents.Panasonic again came through with a wonderful product that more than met our expectations.
