– Doro Magna 4000 Landline Phone - Corded House Phone - Ideal for Seniors - Audio Boost Button and Display - 2 One-Touch Memories - Speakerphone - Black Phone - Visual Ring Indicator - No Answerphone

High quality phone . Very good for anyone who is hard of hearing and easy to alter volume for both ringing and speaking and listening to whoever calls. The keys are large and clear which is useful .

Needed a phone that was easy to use and had a loud ringer as well as a boost to make quiet calls louder. An this does everything just he careful not to press the boost button by accident when you're on phone and don't need it. My ears were ringing for a fair whole after 😂

Bought this for a 91 year old who needs an amplifier on her phone due to being extremely deaf even with hearing aids. She'd previously been using an old BT one (almost 30yrs old!) with amplifier. This phone is fantastic - not only does it have a very good amplifier but there's also a volume switch to increase the sound further. At the moment she only uses the volume to number 3 and it goes up to 9 so there's further capacity for if/when her hearing deteriorates further. She's been using the phone for a month now and I'm pleased to say it's working fantastically well. The phone isn't cheap but when you calculate the cost of trying cheaper ones (and possibly failing) it works out good value for money. Would wholeheartedly recommend it!!!

I waited a good while before writing a review to make sure the phone kept performing, and it has. My mother, a country woman in her late 70s, uses a hearing aid in one ear. When her 'good' ear failed as well, she was cut off from her friends as she was unable to use the phone. A technophobe, stuck in her ways, been using the same BT phone since 1977, I feared she would never get the hang of a new one. I was wrong. She absolutely loves the hands free on her Doro, since she can hear it clearly through her hearing aid. I haven't seen her using it conventionally since I taught her how to use it over a month ago. A great phone, easy to use and a real assett to my very hard of hearing mother. She is no longer isolated on the many days that she doesn't go out.

This Doro 4000 Magna phone was bought for a hearing-impaired 91-year old. The phone has an extra amplification (boost) button that when pressed amplifies the sound of the call. When the boost button is pressed the caller’s voice is amplified but the receiver’s voice is virtually muted at the caller’s end. The caller hears just a very faint trace of the receiver’s voice. This makes two-way conversation effectively impossible. It’s worth noting that the User Manual says “It is only possible for one person at a time to talk when the Boost Button is activated.” If the recipient of a call were to press the Boost button only when the caller is speaking and to release the button when they want to speak this issue wouldn’t be a problem. However, it means the Boost button is useless for deaf users with cognitive impairment, such as dementia. Although the design of the phone has a fault, Amazon’s returns service is faultless. It is simplicity itself to return an item; there was no quibble and the refund was received promptly.

Bought for my elderly mother who is a little hard of hearing and this Phome is ideal for her there’s a volume for the hand set or for those who are more hard of hearing there is the button for a pounder db sound the only downside is if you purchase the phone with protect your bubble then it might come with a nightmare as you may not get the standard email with your paperwork cover and trying to get this from amazon customer service via on line chat becomes the hamster on a wheel as that’s what ya feel like going round and round and still ending no where

I am 84 and have a severe hearing loss and find it difficult to follow speech. I have turned down the offer of a cochlear implant three years ago because I knew not everyone has a successful outcome. I have tried so many phones with amplification buttons that give you such a blast that it hurts your ears and distorts speech. But this phone has a little wheel to enable you to adjust the amplification to make it a suitable sound for you. I have spoken to my daughter in America minutes ago and for the first time in a year was able to understand what she said quite clearly. We were both so thrilled. Being unable to u se the phone has been very isolating and it has also been expensive trying to find a phone that would help. Rather at the end of my tether, I contacted Doro and they told me to go through Amazon and try this phone which I would be able to return if not satisfied. How glad I am that I took their very good advice. I am so grateful and delighted.

Now my dad is 93, he still has all his marbles but seems to be getting a bit deaf. He is OK in normal conversations but was struggling on the phone. Since he chooses to still live at home, he relies on the phone for regular contact with his three children. I bought this for him and tested it out myself. My dad and I are both ex-telephone maintenance engineers, so we know a bit about phones. This Doro product meets his requirements very well. The large display shows the calling number. It also shows the date and time. The phone has a compartment for 4 x AA batteries which maintain the clock and LCD display during power failure. The phone works fully without batteries so long as the mains power supply is connected. It has a hands-free mode which has a volume control. The handset has a volume control and a +60dB boost button. The handset volume control works when the +60dB boost is turned on. The +60dB boost does not work in the hands-free mode, but doesn't need to. The ringer has three settings (off/medium/loud) and the phone has lights in the corners which illuminate when it rings. The only negative point is that there is noticeable hiss on the audio, from the amplifier, but this doesn't matter too much. I wouldn't call it a high quality product but overall it seems fit for purpose.
