Great for old people

I bought this for my 93 year old mother in law. It works like a charm.

Basic, not great

After a job change, I now work exclusively from home. I already have a second phone number for work purposes, but needed an answering system. Phone company is not yet able to provide voice mail on the second number (distinctive ring, not a separate line), so I opted for a physical answering machine. After some research, I decided on the AT&T 1739.

It arrived quickly, and set up quickly. Its biggest drawback is the poor sound quality when recording the outgoing message. You are told to speak over a minuscule condenser mic, and it took a good 4 attempts before I was remotely happy with the sound of it. You get some snow and static, no matter where you are when you record.

Other than that, it works just fine. I don't expect to use it all that much, so for the price, it was a good buy.

Easy, Cheap. Efficient

As with another reviewer, I got fed up with fancy voice-mail systems (requiring a monthly fee). So I ditched v-m and got this machine. It's small, it's reliable, and it sounds fine. It doesn't interfere with our phone which announces the caller, so now I can ignore "Number Not Provided" calls, get my messages without fuss, and quit paying monthly fees. The machine was very easy to set up. All I needed was a little gizmo that converts the one-jack connection at the wall into a 2-jack connection. Maybe the machine won't last a year (I've had for only two months), but if so, I'll buy a new one and still be in money!

There's no contest here. AT&T makes the best home phone answering machines. If you're seeking an answer machine that stands on its own, with no phone included, prepare for top message-taking service. It's simple, easy, and the most powerful home answering machine around. Time/day stamp Remote access Toll saver Call screening/intercept Number announce (requires caller ID service) Variable speed playback Memory monitor Memo Volume control Maximum 3 minute outgoing message announcement Audible message alert - When you come home the machine beeps to advise a message has come in while you were gone Color - White (closer to Ivory) One Year Limited Warranty
