If you are someone that still needs a home phone then this is a good buy. 3 handsets plus a range extender to cover your whole home.

Four very bad reviews on Product Review. The gist appears to be Useless phone with only 6 rings until the answering machine cuts in and cannot be changed. The range is appalling for the second hand set.
Actually if you read the manual, you can turn off the answering machine and it will still answer the call but after 10 rings.
This is $100 at Big W on clearance. The 17550+2 is also $50 at Big W on clearance. Goodluck finding them.
Big W had the triple handset version of the higher model (17850) on clearance for the last couple of weeks for $100. They still sell the two handset version:

I bought the triple handset one and the USB port failed within 30 minutes, so I took it back. I definitely wouldn't recommend Vtech phones.All these phones with answer machines that still answer the call even when you turn off the answering machines are a joke, ive bought a couple and gave up on them…. as sometimes you need a bit of a chance to get to the phone when you are busy.
These things work great for kids, basically a short range walkie-talkie.
