One Week – One Room: AT&T Home Phone Giveaway

By Andrea @ Red Knows How | May 24th, 2009 | Category: Featured Reviews | 336 comments

Okay. I want to admit something… we constantly break our home phones. Most of the time this has nothing to do with the phone, generally it has to do with my husbands ADD. Before I share about the amazing AT&T TL92278 I have to share what occurs in our household.

Once upon a time in the Proulx household we had plenty different portable phones. These phones were strong and durable. Or so we thought. Here is what happened to those phones:

Phone 1 – Run over by my husband with his Jeep

Phone 2 – Dropped into our fish pond by my husband

Phone 3 – Run over by my husband with his Jeep – Snapped in half, not down the seem, like top and bottom completely seperate but connected by wiring. The phone still semi-worked after this

Phone 4 – Dropped in a cup a water (kind of my fault)

Phone 5 – Dropped so many times the screen is a jumble of letters

That is making a long story short. As you can tell, we are bad phone handlers. I shared this all with you because the dual-handset TL92278 made my life so much easier. This AT&T phone has two handsets. So, when one is missing I can be sure that the other is on it’s base or within reach. The secondary handset does not even need to be plugged into a phone jack. It plugs into the wall and works off the main base

What makes this phone so special? The phone allows you to connect a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone to the base unit and you can make and receive cell phone calls right on the home phone. I love this feature!It works great when I need to plug in my cell phone (because it’s always dying) Im not stuck to where it’s plugged in to talk to the people in my life. At my parents house they have weak cell phone service since they live in such a small town. This phone is ideal for them they can plug their cell phone in at the best cell service location and use the home phone to make calls. One thing to note is that using this bluetooth enabling will deplete your cell phone battery faster. It’s recommended to keep your phone plugged in while using this service.

A few other note worthy features are ones that work well for me as a work at home Momma. On each phone there is a mute button and also a speaker phone option. This allows you to mute the call so you can deal with screaming children, or put on speakerphone and get yourself hands free while in meetings.

The TL92278 can be programmed so when a call comes in from your home phone number the ring is a different one than when your cell phone rings. Also, when it is a bluetooth enabled call the phones cellular button will light up. This AT&T phone has all the features I would put in a phone if I made one, and more. The only feature missing that, not a must have, is a plug in jack for a headset that goes over your head. I do not need to wear one though with speakerphone and mute.
