Title: Should work good for most seniors.
Review: We got this for my mom who is in late stage M.S. Her finger dexterity and eyesight are getting really bad, making her cell phone useless.This phone is super easy to use. (1) Press the big speaker button at the bottom right to get a dial tone. (2) Then hit a picture button. That’s it. If you program it for your loved one, he/she won’t need to lift the handle or push any regular numbers.The only improvement I would make is to put the picture buttons on the bottom of the phone instead of the top (swap the layout). Since my mom is bedridden, when she reaches for a picture button, her wrist/forearm will hit the number buttons. She also has bad depth perception and shakes a lot. Anyway, I think this phone will work for most seniors who aren’t in too bad of shape with eyesight and dexterity.

Title: Best basic phone for dementia and hearing loss
Review: Pros: This phone is better than other senior phones like the Vtech, Simpl and Future Call. Your needs may vary, so here are some reasons. It has nine one-touch buttons for memory dialing. Insert a picture OR write the name in big letters. Press the speakerphone button or pick up the handset and just press the button to auto dial. The regular number buttons are very large and easy to read, so fewer mistakes are made by shaky fingers if dialing direct. The handset volume and tone are adjustable using two large sliders on top of the base. A switch on the bottom allows the phone to remain amplified all the time for those with hearing loss, or return to normal volume for each call when used by others in the household. The speakerphone turns on or off simply by pressing the large button. Sound is clear and audible even for those with serious hearing loss. The ringer can be set to low, medium or high volume, plus has a bright red light while ringing. Compared to other brands, the quality of the plastic, buttons and sound are better overall.Cons: The speakerphone button is blank. It should be a different color or have a speaker icon on it to remind dementia patients to press it. The memory buttons are tricky to program. There is no audible beep when entering the numbers, so no idea each number is registered correctly. Just go slow and press each number firmly. This phone does not have Caller ID, so does not help to identify spam or robocalls.

Title: Phone failed after less than 2 years.
Review: Very upset. I purchased this phone less than 2 years ago for my mom and the volume control has stopped working. The volume is too low for her to hear. She has dementia and thanked me over and over saying how much she loved this phone because she could talk to people again. Her dementia has now become worse and so I have to purchase this same phone again because she is no longer capable of learning how to use a different one. This phone is not cheap and so they should be able to make a more reliable phone. Now the company will profit from making a poor phone as I will have to purchase a new one.

Title: The Best Ive Found So Far for Blind Father and Mom who has dementia and hearing issues
Review: I purchased this phone for my parents. My father has Parkinson’s Disease and is blind. My mother has dementia and won’t wear her hearing aids. By being able to program a phone number and put a matching picture that coordinates with the number, that greatly helps my mom with dementia. She can see the picture of who she wants to call and just push that button. The sound/volume can be turned up so that she can hear, as well. The only problem is that sometimes the phone makes a squealing sound and it’s hard to listen to and can be disruptive. The volume on the ringer can be turned up too so my mom can usually hear the phone ring. The phone also flashes when it rings so sometimes she can visually know to pick up the phone. With my dad being blind and hands shaking, it’s harder for him to make a call. But at least he can feel the buttons across and know spot 1 is so and so; spot 2 is so and so etc. One of the most important things that came with this phone was a couple of decals w braille on it. Although he does not read braille, he can feel the tactile bumps on the decal that I put on one of the buttons which I programmed 911 to. The decal appears to be sticking to the key button and dad can find the 911 button for an emergency. Dad does have to work a bit to get the phone hung up correctly in the cradle. I wish these phone companies would take the time to find out what the elderly and blind, hearing impaired portion of our population need to be successful in answering and making a phone call. But as I say, all in all, this is the best phone I’ve found thus far to meet my parents’ needs. Programming the numbers is extremely easy.

Title: So easy to use!
Review: We have tried so many – but ultmately Purchased this unit for my fatherinlaw who is very hard of hearing and has dementia. The sound of this phone is phenomenal with the regular volume controls. Crisp and clear. We found the boost was unnecessary – and actually caused static so we are happy to not need it. It is very easy for him to use and he is extremely happy.

Review: This is the second phone my Mom has. The first had maple syrup spilled on it and she needed a new one. Because she is 93 years old she needed the same phone as it was the best for her. It was worth the wait for it to come to give her her life back. The speaker is clear and the dialing and memory buttons are great for her. I would recommend it to anyone who is hearing and visually impaired as my Mother is.

Review: Je l’ai acheté pour que ma mère puisse m’appeler très facilement avec les touches mémoires. Elle préfère que ce soit le nom de la personne au lieu d’une photo.N.B. Si vous devez utiliser par exemple le numéro 9 avant d’enregistrer les numéros en mémoires, il faut :: 1 lire les directives en anglais pour cette section et s’armer de patience, ça prend plusieurs reprises pour réussir le bon timing et étapes. Mais un coup c’est fait! C’est le téléphone le plus simple à utiliser et le son du combiné et de la sonnerie est ajustable selon l’ouïe de l’utilisateur!
