The best thing about it is that I eliminated a $40 a month phone bill so I save more than $400 a year. I have not had any major problems with it and in fact find it has alot of really nice features. 1) Calls are generally clear, comparable to a land line. 2) Desktop menu is nice, shows all your calls and has an easy-to-use contact list. 3) Caller ID works well and gives you the option to ignore a call 4) Long distance is free and works well 5) If you connect it to a cordless with several handsets you can use it throughout the house. These are the only problems I have had or disadvantages I have found, but considering what I save on phone service I can live with them: 1) Occassionally I will get a reverberation, where the caller is like repeating himself. I usually just have to unplug and re-start it. 2) No customer service telephone number, but their chat service has been helpful. 3) You can't port your old phone so you have to get a new number. But you can choose from several numbers. 4) Your phone number will not be listed in the phone directory. 5) USB is sensitive and unit is easily damaged or broken. The USB on my unit is loose but it still works. 6) When you get a call the menu pops up with caller id, it can interrupt games and other applications and is a bit of a pain. No way to change this feature. It only works with broadband service, will not work with dial-up or satellite. I was hoping to use it at my mountain cabin but we only have dial-up available there so I can't. If your magic jack gets damaged you have to buy a new one but you can keep your old magic jack number if you chat with customer service before registering the new magic jack, not sure if you get to keep your contacts and other info. I would definitely recommend this product. It has some nice features and will save you alot of money. You'll recover your cost in a month or two max.
