Summary: Nice Product 2010-07-08
Comment: I bought this product for my Dad who has hearing loss. He likes it a lot. The ringer is quite loud and now he never misses a phone call. The speakerphone also works well. I would recommend this phine to anyone who is hard of hearing however if they have poor eyesight they should look to another product as the key pad functions are quite small.

Summary: A Great Product for the Hard of Hearing 2010-07-04
Comment: This is a great phone for the hard of hearing, and much better than others I have tried. It's drawbacks are not serious, but make it harder to setup and use than it could be:
(1) It has no built-in alphabetic sorting or searching capability. Therefore, if you want the entries in the phone directory in alphabetic order, you have to enter them that way, and if you later add a new name, you will have to renter all the following names. Also, it can only search for an entry by index number. So you have to either keep a paper list of names and indices, or search the list sequentially. (2) It has three separate frequency-amplification settings, but there is virtually no information about them in the user's manual, so the user can only choose one by trial and error while listening to different voices, and it is not easy to return to a previous setting.

Summary: A good buy 2010-05-28
Comment: A bit dated but for the money a good buy, with good service from the provider. I would consider them again.
Comment: The phone was delivered promptly and complete as advertised. It was easy to connect and after an easy to follow setup (configuration)it went into service without a problem. I use it with a "hands free" headset and the built in amplifier allows me to easily switch to a higher volume level in addition to being able to adjust the volume through "steps" using the arrow keys. The "amplify" button is separate and a "toggle". That is, pushing it once greatly increases volume, and pushing it a second time returns to normal volume. Then in each mode, the volume may be stepped up and down with the arrow keys. It has a 50 position phone number memory, which is helpful since I have more than ten contacts and entering contacts is easy. It has a clip to hang on my belt or pants pocket, but past experience has shown me that my hands free headset cord gets hung up on things when I walk around, so I use a lanyard like teachers wear for their whistle and ID badge and hang the phone around my neck as I walk around while using my hands free headset. In doing so the headset cord never gets hung up and jerked out of its socket. The answering machine section is easy to set up and can be configured to beep once in a while if a new message has been received. This is handy if one has been out of the house and doesn't think to check messages as soon as they get home. This feature can also be silenced. And finally, additional hand sets can be added, although I've not yet utilized this feature. I walk outside the house and most generally, the audio remains clear. All in all, it is the best cordless phone I've yet owned.
