HePesTer HePesTer P-02 Amplified Large Button Corded Phone for Senior

Bought this phone for a visually impaired senior. It is working out very well, as it saves several numbers for speed dialling easily. Easy to use. Buttons are also big enough to identify by touch. It feels light, but it has been working very well so far.

Purchased this phone for my 93 year old Mother after she had tried multiple phones over the past 6 years, including the Clarity and a phone that would convert voice to text. This new phone is easy for her to use and she can even hear on it without her hearing aids. Numbers are huge so she can easily read the numbers and having an "old style/familiar" phone really works for her. I got the 12' cord so she can move around more.Since she missed not having an answering machine I purchased an AT&T machine for $19.99 and it works great. Not a lot of bells and whistles on the phone or the answering machine. Success!!

Phone worked well for a few months then the ringer volume quit. Called customer service and they agreed to send a replacement. Customer service was prompt and attentive. Satisfied with replacement. All fine working order.

I bought this for my dad who is 90. He wanted a simple phone that had a loud ringer, loud volume for the handset, worked with his heating aid, and had larger buttons. I wanted it a darker color so it wouldnt get dirty so easily. This phone fit the bill. I hesitated since I did not recognize the company name. However the phone in the guest room was one years old and a name brand and the read out already was broken. So far, after two weeks, this works as expected (his voice is clear and he can hear everything clearly) and he is very happy with it. He even hooked it up himself so it was easy peasy in that dept. If he is happy, I am happy.

There is nothing positive about this product: cheaply made cheap looking very light weight and falls off my 86-year-old uncle’s bedside table, the speaker phone broke less than a day into having it (and it was a second phone for the same one just in a different color that he previously had… There is no volume adjustment on the phone and even up at the highestSetting my uncle said he couldn’t hear me at all on the other end of the phone. I can’t find anything simple enough for him as confusion has really been setting in but I’ll either have no phone or a more old-school phone that is more well constructed and functional. uuuugh!
