Title: Great for elderly parent
Review: My dad is 90, living in assisted living, and couldn’t work his iphone anymore.First, logistics. You connect the cell phone to this phone. This does NOT use the old connect to the wall tech. Coverage is completely through the cell phone. This phone can be used as a regular phone – dial numbers like push button phone, with one-button calls to 911 also. I got the model with a speaker phone. We found the handset to have much better quality sound than the speaker. More importantly, you can set it to NOT use the numbers as numbers, but to use them as one-button calls to pre-programmed numbers. The numbers have plastic covers over number papers, and you can replace the number slips with pictures. My dad can’t see 1″ photos anymore, so we used colored initials – nice and bold. Mine is red “C” that he can see easily. Also, if you take off the plastic covers altogether, there are raised rough numbers. Dad picked out where he wanted one of his friends, and preferred no cover, but he can feel the number 7 on that button.We disabled the 911 button since dad sometimes fidgets and just pushes buttons randomly. Also, the switch for regular vs one-button calling is on the back and not that easy to do randomly, so dad can’t switch back and forth by himself, which is good! We don’t want him to be able to dial randomly and wake someone up in the middle of the night.We’ve been very pleased with this. It’s given dad several months of being able to use a phone.

Title: Provided What We Needed
Review: We were excited to purchase this phone for mom. Mom was moving to a senior facility where the staff will provide most of her needs. One of mom’s regular activities was talking for her family. Since mom is aging we were looking for a phone that would make it easier for her to call her family.We programmed the phone following the instructions provided. It didn’t work. We looked over the instructions and the bottom of the phone for support information. We called the number and left a message. Then we called right back and a gentleman answered the phone. He walked us through every step and we were successful. The instructions need to be updated to reflect the steps correctly.We tested everything at home then took the phone to mom. We were surprised when it didn’t work. Fortunately, the social worker was with us. She asked if we dialed a “9” to get an outside line. This was new information. We reprogrammed the phone to add a “9” then the area code then the phone number. We thought all was well but it didn’t work for mom’s sister that lived out of state. We realized we needed to add a “1” before the area code for a long distance number. In our particular case for the out of state sibling we needed to a “9” to get an outside line then add the “1” for long distance then the area code then the phone number.We called everyone whose picture is on phone to test it out. Everyone was so excited to be able to talk with mom. Mom is now calling people testing out her new phone. We love it. We think mom loves it. She can now do the things that are familiar to her.I do hope the manufacturer will correct the instructions. They would definitely receive more great reviews.

Title: Works pretty well, but the sound could be much better.
Review: I bought this for an elderly family member who has poor vision and worse hearing. The pictures and one button dialing is great and easy enough to program. The sound is pretty distorted and when turned up loud enough for him to hear really distorts, and it’s not maxed out, Just poor design or cheap parts. It is usable enough for an emergency and necessary calls, but you wouldn’t want to have a long chat on it.

Title: Not a good phone. Great idea but it needs to work.
Review: When you picked up the receiver it had a busy signal. You had to play with it to get a dial tone. My mother in law has dementia and would not know how to play around to get a dial tone. The phone just needs to work immediately. Had a lot of static on the phone also. Sent it back.

Title: Works great. I wish that the speaker in the handset was clearer
Review: I got this for my parent so we could have an easy to use picture film and for that purpose it’s great. Overall it was a great expense and I’d buy another one. While you can hear just fine in handset, it’s not quite as clear as a modern cell phone. That wouldn’t have prevented me from buying this though

Title: Great phone for my 92 year old Mother!
Review: Extremely easy to set up. No charging required. It was easy to program auto dial numbers.I only wish it announced the caller name, which her old phone did. Other than that it is great for an elderly person who is experiencing difficulty operating a phone.

Title: This one works!
Review: My wife has dementia. She has trouble with any process that involves more than 2 steps in sequence. This phone makes that easy by having large keys with the ability to place a photo under each of the normal 10 dialing buttons. Programming is a snap, and there is a switch to go from FULL use of the keyboard to ONE TOUCH use. The speaker phone, if selected, is loud and clear (adjustable volume) and the base unit has the necessary weight to keep it in place. There still remains one challenge: my wife being tempted to use the 911 button if she is annoyed at me…. (sigh…..)

Review: This phone is perfect for someone who can’t dial the numbers anymore. I programmed it once for a lady with alzheimers and even after having to unplug it and move, the numbers all remained in it and I didn’t have to program it again. It’s been through a fair amount of abuse and still going strong. 🙂

Review: Le son est ok, assez fort.Les boutons ne sont pas très souples, on doit peser fort pour que ça fonctionne.Pour enregistrer les numéros, ça devient très diffile pour certaines touches.2 touches se sont déprogrammées.Je vais le retourner malheureusement 😬
