 Great headset for Home Use! August 18, 2008
Stephanie Dershaw (Cincinnati, Ohio United States)
I bought this headset for my husband that stays home with our baby. I thought it would make it easier to keep in touch with people while getting things done around the house. He loves it! Most wireless headsets are made for use at the office, so they are at least 3 times the price of this headset. The range is good...he can go anywhere in the house or go outside and sit on the porch and talk with no issues. It is easy to hook up and use. The sound is great. The person you are talking to can't tell that you're using a headset...it is very clear! The only thing that isn't perfect is that you can hear yourself talk in the headset. It is a minor thing that you do get used to, so it wouldn't deter me from buying it. For the price, it is great! I would highly recommend it.
 Dave's 10sec Review- what was I thinking June 26, 2008

I was willing to overlook the bulky form factor because I really wanted an over-the-head style BT headset for long conversations at work. I was willing to pay a lot money for the BT headset. I was NOT willing to accept lousy sound quality for my callers, which is what this gave. If you have a blackberry be warned that this headset will fight with the BB's echo cancellation, causing weird, delayed audio. Once I figured that out (I've never seen that before with 4 others headsets) my sound was better, but my voice to the caller never got past 'its alright', and 'what was that?' Mom always said say something nice, so, uh, nice charger. Returned it.
 Best Desktop Headset March 18, 2008
Sandra D. Harrison (Renton, WA United States)
I have used several different headsets for my voice control software and none were as good as this one. It was easy to install, I can walk all around the building and still hear music playing on my PC. Sound is clear and headset is comfortable.
The only drawback is that you only have the option of the over the head headset.
so far, so good December 26, 2007

Bought this for someone who lives on their cordless phone and either squashes it between neck and shoulder or works one handed while she talks.
She's low-tech so this looked like the ticket.
So far it has been great. It's comfortable, clear, easy, and today she wore it out to get the mail (60ft?) and it didn't drop. So no complaints here - it was plug & play and it works as advertised. A bit pricey but since it is performing so well it looks like money well spent. I'd give it 5 stars but it's only been a few days out of the box - let's see how durable it is....
Well, it been a few months and it still works great. Stays in place, clear as a bell, no problems.

After using several other brands of headset with my land line telephone, and being somewhat disappointed with the results, I decided to try the VXI BlueParrott B100 Wireless Headset System for Corded/Cordless Phones and Bluetooth Cell Phones. It isn't cheap, but it is GOOD. Since I wear hearing aids, I needed an "over the head" type headset rather than something that fits "in the ear". If you have been looking for a Bluetooth headset that fits this requirement, I am sure you have found it difficult to find. The B100 works with both the land-line and cellular phones (Bluetooth equipped) using a base unit that is connected to the standard telephone line and the 115V AC socket. The base acts as a battery charger for the rechargeable battery in the headset.
Audio quality is supperb. Volume more than adequate, and the controls are easy to use. The microphone is noise canceling and it works. Very comfortable to wear and it fits on either ear. Once matched with your cell phone, it switches easily between cell and land-line use. Although Bluetooth is rated for 33 foot range, I have been twice that far from the base unit and maintained contact. Talk time: up to 6 hours without recharging and up to 100 hours on stand-by. Using NiMH batteries, it can be charged anytime without encountering the "memory effect" that shortens the capacity of some rechargeable batteries. A well engineered product using materials that appear that they will last over time.
One caveat. Do charge the headset of a new unit overnight (as the instructions indicate). When brand new, the charge indicator light gives a false indication of full-charge after a few minutes. It seems to work properly after that initial charge.
I wish I had found this unit years ago.
