Pros:
1) Dual handsets: can set up phones in most commonly used locations, instead of always having to track down the single phone that comes with most other cordless phone purchases.
2) Ringer volume controls: wide range of volume, instead of the typical 2 levels associated with most phones.
3) Comfort: light-weight and fits well against the head and in the hand.
4) Style: champagne color is elegant.
5) Headset compatible: no loss in sound quality (also, just make sure you get a good headset)
6) The specs on amazon list no belt clip, but there is indeed a belt clip for each phone.
7) Sound quality and range: excellent. A lot of this might have to do with the particular layout of my residence, not sure, but I've used Panasonic 2.4 gig and Sony digital 900 mhz phones and had lots of problems with range, even getting "out of range" signals on a regular basis even if calling from right next to the base unit.
8) Antenna: extends less than 1/2" out of the phone and does not need to be extended / pulled out (actually, can't be). This is especially good for people who use a headset and clip the phone to their belt. Most other phones have a 1" - 2" antenna which can jab into one's side / stomach when sitting down and it becomes really annoying when that is the case.
9) Multiple mailboxes: the 3 mailboxes are ideal for those living with others or wanting one box for personal messages, another for business messages, etc.
10) Battery life: no issues so far at all even though talking on the phone for hours at a time.
Cons:
1) Outgoing message recording volume: it takes some practice to learn how to record the outgoing message without it being much too loud for those calling in.
2) At first, it is a bit tedious to program the phone and learn its nuances (volume, handset levels, remote call-in, etc., but that is common with phones nowadays and not unique to this AT&T phone). But take the 20 minutes to do it with the manual and you'll be glad you got this phone. It is worth the 20 minutes, no doubt.

Equipped with a pair of cordless handsets, a base unit with a built-in answering system, and a charger for the second handset, the 2255 is stylish, easy to use, and affordable. The bundle is ideal for households with free-roaming users, or for rooms with no phone line access, such as garages or attics. Even better, the reception on each handset is clear and static-free thanks to the 2.4 GHz frequency, which offers more clarity and a greater range than 900 MHz phones. As a further benefit, the two phones can act as intercoms, letting users contact one another from across the house without yelling or pounding on the wall.
The built-in answering system, meanwhile, includes three digital mailboxes for more efficient organization. The mailbox system is particularly nice for busy households, as it lets users organize messages according to the recipient, or in a home office setting where home and business messages need to be stored separately. The answering system sports such additional features as 15 minutes of digital recording time,remote access (for checking messages when away from home), call screening/intercept, and intuitive voice prompts.
In addition, both cordless handsets include three-line LCD displays that provide caller ID and call waiting data (subscription required), including storage space for 25 names and numbers. Users will also appreciate the display-and-dial function, which lets you scroll through the phone's directory and quickly dial the selected number, along with the time/date stamp that lets you know exactly when you received an incoming call. And thanks to the 20 speed dial presets, you'll have quick access to your best friends and favorite restaurants.
Additional features include a memo record function that lets you leave reminder messages for yourself or others, a page system that lets you locate the handsets when they're misplaced, adjustable volume levels for each unit, and a low-battery indicator. The bundle, which also includes a pair of rechargeable ni-cad batteries, is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
What's in the Box Two cordless handsets, base unit (with answering system), phone charger, mounting adapter, two ni-cad batteries, telephone line cord, two AC adapters, user's manual.
