Picture buttons are really small, and you will spend time trying to get pictures the correct size, and regardless too small for someone very impaired. Call block button is right next to the picture button, so my dad accidentally keeps blacking folks. Good concept poor design. He’s able to partially use it so giving 2 stars.

This phone is outstanding. My mother-in-law who is 80 can see it and hear it much better than what she had previously.

Best Buy is showing the incorrect product as the SN5147 has two units and additional picture slots. The picture shown is for the SN5127 model which I had to do my own research to find out. They now have charged me twice for the wrong units and I now have to return them as they don't seem to understand what I am explaining.

Fantastic Purchase

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I bought this phone system for my In-laws, both of whom are hearing impaired. My Father-in-law took to it immediately.
He took the instructions, which were very accessible, and set up the system quickly. I could not be more satisfied with my purchase.

Not what it COULD be

I was told the phone had a record button. My brother has a 90%hearing loss. Someone told him a record feature so that if he wasn’t hearing what was said, he could hit record & listen to it over & over until he got it. When I called to see if it had this feature, I was told it would record. It does, but only on the answering machine.not
