I use this answering machine to collect missed calls. After 3 years of Taple (Microcassette) Answering Machine, because of tape answering machine has broken-up, I brought a new AT&T Answering Machine (1738). That's solved my problem of no rewinding and buying an microtape. from Circuitcity.com I got this one to replace my GE which worked great for like 5 years but then the sound quality became awful because the speaker just wore out. Although the sound quality of the AT&T is great, this was the worst decision I ever made. from Circuitcity.com And when you hit play, it plays the new messages first. No need to go back through the reminder to go to the dentist messages. Has a 1 year guarantee, but you need "original packaging" so remember the box and the shipping receipt from Amazon is your guarantee, toss one inside the other and put it in the attic. But if this one works as well as my previous one, you won't need it. from Amazon.com A simple "stand alone" telephone answering machine is hard to find. I called a few box stores and was told "we do not carry such a product anymore." Our business telephone system has an answering feature, but I do not want to use the business system. The ATT1738 is simple to install and set up. Great product at a friendly price. from Amazon.com These days, it's very hard to find a basic answering machine. I wanted one for my basic. from Amazon.com The 1738 is pretty nice except for the voice quality. It is not nearly as understandable as the old AT&T 1725 that I had until it fried. from Amazon.com "On August 20, 2007 I received An answering Machine Model 1738 from Amazon. I ordered this not knowing what to expect after reading so many bad reports. from Amazon.com Bought this Answering sytem to replace a 25 year old answering machine that quite working. The AT&T system was very easy to setup, I had it setup without the instructions in about 5 minutes Works great has nice sound quality. from Amazon.com I've been using this machine (AT&T 1738) since late January with excellent results. I have had more expensive systems with call and message forwarding, multiple "Mailboxes" etc and every time the power "Hicuped," you had to go in and redo the messages then make sure the system was in the proper Mode to receive calls. from Amazon.com I purchased two AT&T portable phones which are great so far. But this answering machine is not a simple machine to set up. from Amazon.com
