I have one.  I initially hated it, but it grew on me a lot.  I got a 
GXP2000 to replace it but never got around to it.  I find the GXP2000 
too limiting now.  The thing that bugs me about the SPA841 still is the 
lack of backlight on the display.

Oh, and get a decent $0.10 handset cord.  The one that came with the 
SPA841 was pure nasty junk.

I don't know if I'd recommend them.  There is a lot of personal 
preference involved and the 841 certainly seems to be able to provoke 
strong dislike for people.
