AT&T 1080 Corded Speakerphone with Digital Answering System Review

I wanted to like this phone. I have had bad luck with life expectancy of cordless multi-line phones (and I'm not hard on phones), so when I found this phone and read the reviews, I was enthused. I bought this model, and the AT&T 1070, for our home office. Unfortunately, the speakerphone quit working almost immediately, and the headset feature had a loud hiss. I returned the phone for an exchange, and the exchanged unit had the identical problem. Amazon, understandably, would not exchange the phone yet again, saying the problem must be more widespread than initially believed. Then the 1070's headset feature quit working altogether. I guess the quest for a quality two-line phone with answerer continues.

This is truly a disappointment because this phone has some really great features. I wish AT&T would make their own products, using USA workers and greater quality control. I fear I'm wishing for bygone days that will not be returning, at least any time soon.
