I just cannot stand portable phones either because of their shape or their lack of reception and feedback. This phone is wonderful, and I didn't buy it for an old person! The ear piece is comfortable and the sound quality is terrific. No feedback, no bad reception and you can walk pretty far without losing your signal. I highly recommend this phone for anyone who hates cordless phones!!!

I bought this for my mom, who's over seventy. So many electronic devices have confusing or tiny-print controls, and this one does not. It is also quite satisfactory in all the other qualities of a cordless phone.

I purchased this phone for my mother because she frequently didn't hang the phone up after use. This phone has ONE button to turn off and turn on. No more searching for the off button that is usually very small. This large button has solved the problem. Mom enjoys all the larger buttons.
The flashing light when the phone rings is great. The volume control button increasing the volume so I can hear her and she can hear me.

I think it is a good product for the money.

This is a wonderful phone! My brother would never advance to using a cordless phone,,can you imagine that in 2008? He moved into a new home from out of town and I had the job of setting the house up for him and I purchased this and set it up before he moved in. He was mad at first , said he didn't need it and to take it back. I just asked him to try it occassionally and if after a month or so I would unplug and remove it. Well we all know what happened next? He loves the phone and had an incident where he needed to be in the dark and in a room away from his corded old standby phone. He had nothing but praise for this phone after this . The sound, clarity, larger earpiece and large buttons were wonderful.He said it is a great product for emergencies such as he had and I finally broke thru his stubborness after all of these years!! Thanks G.E. for a super product. He is disabled with a life threatening illness and it could have saved his life had the situation not been helped by this phone!!!!!! I recommend it highly for anyone especially those with illness, elderly, visual and hearing disabled. I am thinking about getting one also and I am a normal functioning adult,, Just love the phone.The price is very reasonable.

This was a great choice for my mother-in-law. She has arthritis and had been having trouble getting up from a sitting position and getting to the phone without having to hurry up before it stopped ringing and then I was also afraid of her falling because she would be in a hurry and lose her balance. The large key pads and large talk button was just what I was looking for. I only had to tell her, just hit the talk button when answering and hanging up the phone and it was large enough that it stood out and she didn't have to try to figure out which button to hit. Great phone for the elderly who get confused with too many choices and too much info.

This phone is great for young and old alike:Big buttons,large illuminated caller ID display,and a lot of programable features.Unlike another reviewer,I found the ringer tone to be plenty loud.

This was purchased for someone who is visually impaired, and it fits the bill perfectly. The buttons are big and also contrasted so they are easier to see. Great phone and a very good price.

The phone turned out to be better than I expected. I especially like the clear readout when scanning the memory for stored phone numbers. My older phone was very difficult to see.

I am very happy with this phone.

Good phone. Bought it for my mom, who's in her 70s. Sound quality is good, buttons are easy for her to work.

This phone is great! Its not just for hearing/ sight impared people. I am 28 and really like the phone. Its very clear and easily fits on your shoulder so you have use of both hands!!! The only slight disadvantage is that I think the orange display screen could be clearer..the numbers that come up are a little small and harder to read because of the color of the screen.
