Replacement battery pack, November 11, 2009

Guess what? No one has a replacement battery pack for this model! In less then a year, the battery is running out as my phone is blinking and beeping and screeching...and after hours online at various places and on the phone....have come to the realization that there is no replacement batteries available. Throw away phone!!!

disapointed, November 10, 2009

When I first got this phone I loved it. After 8 months it pooped out. Battery life is terrible.

One little hitch, October 5, 2009

We needed a new cordless phone with enhanced hearing capability and it seems OK for that purpose. But here's the hitch -- when an incoming call rings it lights up and warbles all over the place but at a very low level of sound!!!!! This for a phone we got to hear better!!!! When the TV is on we can just barely hear the phone ring.

I will not recommend., September 19, 2009

I bought the phone for my 92 year old mother , but I myself had trouble using it. There is so much buzzing interference sound and for some reason the telephone battery charge seems not staying long . But I just know I did not like the phone myself and the more it will not work with my 92 year old mother who has trouble hearing.

Great phone, August 14, 2009

Great phone for the elderly! Phone has "big numbers" and volume settings for the hard of hearing. Also wireless is a plus so you do not have to worry about cords or extensions
