Great price on the Uniden 8355+3WPR for $195.30 (base with handset, two additional handsets, waterproof floating handset, and repeater, and the bonus waterproof handset).
I got one earlier this year to when my 3135 base got fried. Uniden told me the 3135's orphaned handsets could not be paired with a newer system, but both paired and work fine with the 8355.
The conference call feature has been handy for 'account authorisation' when the account holder isn't close by (put the current line on hold, call up the account holder's mobile, conference them in to do the authorisation).
The repeater works well. I've got mine outside in the shed and it has no problems reaching a couple of doors down the road (for when you're having a neighbourly beer). Though actual usefulness in this age of mobile phones is questionable.
Wired is what's in, kids.
I bought the Uniden 8315+1 XDECT when on special as per the above promotion at the time. Happy with it in comparison with my 2015 Panasonic hands free. Superior call quality and coverage on the Uniden 8315, and the Uniden is great for interfacing via bluetooth with my mobile (put the Android mobile in the window due to poor mobile phone signal at home - and network it around the house via the bluetooth feature).
Today, the free bonus waterproof handset + charger surprisingly arrives via courier (part of the promotion). Great value overall for an outlay at the time - of $89.60 for the lot including the waterproof handset. Thanks heaps OP.
Why did you put $117 in the page title where is is actually $146?
