Home Phones

[emmie]

I am looking at replacing the current home phone, has anyone a recommendation before i go looking. It needs to be a cordless twin handset, with answerphone. I have looked online, there's lots of choice, but if you have something similar or one you just like, love let me know. And not too complicated to programme in numbers. One i love looks great, but the reviews are poor, which is a shame.

Had to replace ours in early January em, I replaced them with the BT Studio 4500 plus, I have no complaints about them there very good although ours are a triple set but they do a twin set I believe.

I am hard of hearing,does that phone have button to increase incoming sound.

[emmie]

thanks, was looking to see if there are any nice designs, something a little different, i one i saw was very retro, but the reviews weren't good...

[tonyav]

Yes it does kloofnek, it says ' Turn the incoming speech volume up or down 5 settings '.

That is great.thank you.We already have a couple of cordless but as one cannot up the sound,pretty useless to me.Do have a corded one which is very good...but the others are so handy.

we've got a BT Graphite system - we have three phones but you can get a version with two - we bought it in Argos. Very pleased with it.

Yes kloofnek very useful to be able to walk about while on the phone.

thanks will have a look... the one currently have is fine, or at least one handset is, the other seems to have some issues, if answer it, it cuts out after a short time, it's not the batteries as have changed those..

Panasonic. I would never consider any other brand.

We recently got this one as you can block nuiscance calls with it.

thank you, have been looking for something a bit different, to replace the ones that are similar to those in the photo, also am ex directory, so nuisance calls are rare.
