bought it for my mother for Christmas, easy to set up, so far works very well!update on review, 1/27/18 has a squealing noise when volume is turn up!

On top of that the earpiece has an almost constant low humming noise, especially when used with a cellular to landline adapter (though it was still present on various VOIP devices)

The only slight dislike is the back noise like humming I hear while in use

When volume is increased to max, loud background noise.

The noise is so horrible the phone is not useable.

Does not work ,had a humming noise every time my mother use it

At times no dial tone could be heard, the volume adjustment switch (which just slides from low to high) would make a loud popping noise in the handset but no improvement in volume.

The amplifier on the phone has a lot of feedback and makes terrible noises, but is better than a regular phone for her

Loud feedback shrill noise that is driving my 90 year old Mother crazy!!Very cheaply made I hope I receive a

The phone emits a loud feedback noise when the handset is next to the base, always

It now has static noise at a very high level basically impossible to use has changed phone cord and other

However, I gave it 3 stars because I took it to 2 local pharmacies that develop pictures, and they do not do pictures s,all enough to fit the phone
