  • EXCELLENT!!! YES... RINGER VOLUME CAN BE ADJUSTED!!!!
Style: Corded/Cordless
I am very pleased with this phone system. It has a large easy to read screen and large buttons. I love the photo speed dial and call blocker functions. It is very easy to set up. Out of the box the ringer is very loud, but IT CAN be adjusted to a lower level by going through the prompts on the cordless handset. It does have a built in answering machine as well. Phone calls sound crystal clear and you can even boost the sound while on a call or slow down the caller's message while listening to your voice messages on the answering machine which is excellent especially while trying to jot down any notes or phone numbers that the caller leaves. You can even program in reminders for yourself. I have the corded/cordless system and also purchased the extra photo handset extention which works flawlessly with this system. I may get the pendant in the future. I have Voip over service from vonage and all features work great with it including call blocker. I highly recommend this phone system for not just the senior and disabled community, but for anyone who wants an easy to use phone system with large display and excellent sound quality. Also, I was not offered any free incentives for leaving this review. I paid full price for it and I would do it do it again in a heartbeat .💗 💗💗 ... show more

  • Purchased for Parent Who Recently Had a Stroke
Style: Corded/Cordless
Update (3/17/24): Some items that I have noticed/learned since purchasing this phone for my mom: 1. You may want to disable the Call Block button on the corded phone base. On a few occasions, my mom has pressed the Call Block button which has blocked my number after having called her. You can disable the Call Block function using the cordless phone. 2. I've found that my mom will turn off the answering machine function because it has the red on/off button next to it. So you may need to check your parent's phone to make sure that they haven't turned off the function. 3. The phone will ring even if the corded handset is off of the base unit. You just need to make sure that you press the 'hang up' button to answer a call in this scenario. I noticed that some have noted that they are having sound issues with their units. We haven't encountered this issue (yet) and have had the unit for just under 2 years. ------- My mother recently had a stroke and we have found that this phone system has been helpful overall. Some pros and cons include: Pros: *The corded phone is best because there is no way that she will misplace the phone. *The phone has small slots where you can put a picture of a relative for easy phone calls. Instead of pictures, we put the names of individuals in each slot. *The corded phone is very loud (ringing) and for hearing. Cons: *The cordless phone can be confusing for her - too many buttons. The M1, M2, M3.... buttons (associated with stored numbers) are not helpful. A stroke victim with memory issues is not going to be able to tie M1 to the first number stored into memory on the corded phone. *The cordless phone sound quality is only okay. We ended up purchasing the accessory cordless phone that has less buttons and has slots for pictures (once again, we put in names into each slot). It's working well for her. Overall, I would say that the phone is worth purchasing. I initially purchased a different cordless phone with all of the bells/whistles. However, I quickly learned that it was too confusing for my mom. Believe me, you need to get a very simple phone to use. The corded phone is what my mom uses the most. (Note: You may want to purchase a longer cord for the handset/base unit - just so that your relative can sit comfortably to talk on the phone.) Good luck to anyone working with a relative who has had a stroke and ends up having difficulties using devices. It's definitely a learning experience for me. Hard to believe that my mom actively used an iPhone before her stroke and now finds that using a cell phone is too overwhelming. ... show more

  • Got it to screen spam calls for my mother, seems to work! OOPS.. no it does not work. Don't buy
Style: Corded/Cordless
Smart Call Blocker use to work by inputting allowed numbers in, and blocking all numbers not on the list. Was wonderful for my 97 yr old mother. She would get 10-20 telemarketer calls a day and believe whatever they told her. It worked great until Dec 15, 2022. UPDATE. As of December 15 the Smart Call Blocker function just stopped working and would not allow the approved numbers through. Started treating all numbers as "unknown" and thus blocked ALL calls. I could turn the function off and it would work as any other phone. Could not find any help at all on this. Called Customer Support and talked to a non-English speaking individual who did not seem to grasp the issue. This is the disturbing part... The customer service rep then called the phone, they did not explain why, which I initially thought fixed the issue. I thought, how scary they can mess with the phone by a phone call. Turns out that this person, remotely, disabled the entire Smart Call Blocker system on the phone. Now I cannot block ANY number. My paranoid mind tells me that the spam callers did not like this system and got Vtec to set the phone to block all calls forcing you to turn off the Blocker. IMO I believe this was intentional, done remotely, and probably is the same for any other phone with a similar system. BTW I check to make sure no changes were made with caller ID for the telephone line vendor, also checked with other phones on the do not block list, all blocked. Not any more though. Everyone can now call and my poor 97 yr old mother has to deal with the $#@%^ 3rd time with tech and got the runaround on the smart call blocker. I am convinced that they got slapped by telemarketers to change their block system. Tech support would just ignore my description of the problem and proudly announce that it’s fixed, you can now add callers to the blocked list, which is not how it worked before. My mother has a hard time with the 5 button programmable tv remote, plus the telemarketers are always changing their numbers. ... show more
