I want a system so an elderly lady can push the button and someone in another part of the house can respond. Are all parts portable and cordless?

The door buzzer runs on a battery.You can permanently attach it or decide to carry it with you. Each of the two chimes has an electrical plug. You just plug them into any outlet.I I have one in the kitchen, that covers my kitchen, dining room and living room. The other is in my TV room that also covers my bedroom and bathroom. If finding an outlet to plug them into is a problem, I suggest you buy a type that has a battery in the chime.

Yes this could work however the bell pay needs to be plugged in. So your senior could have the wireless button and the bells could be plugged in 2 current places so they could be heard no matter where one of in the house this altering one to the needs of the person ringing the bell. Hope this helps.

No, it is not cordless. It comes with an adapter that has to be plugged in to power the frame.

This is not a cordless unit. It does require a portable cord to be plugged in to the unit in order to operate.

I purchased this for my mom who is hard of hearing and its works great.Unit can be placed in any room as long as you have a outlet to plug unit in. I installed two door bells one at the side of the house and one at the front door.

I have this unit and it is great. My wife is handicapped and I worked at night. It is easy o set up and has a wide range of motion. I could just click on my cell phone and check on her whenever I wanted. Once it is set up it is alway on unless you decide to turn it off. You can also commu nicate through it although I never did set that up.

It is NOT cordless. Must be plugged into a wall socket. Not heavy at all, and very easy to manipulate. One hand does it all.

Yes this is the product that I bought for my parents and my in-laws. It has already been used 3 times by my Mother who wears it regularly. You can program 4 numbers for the system to call and it will follow in sequence until someone answers. An extra battery is included so one is fully charged at all times. Simple and effective.

There is no answering machine on this phone.We were seeking a phone without one .The people using it already had a small simple to use answering machine near the entrance of the house ,that they already use with the portable phones.The portable phones have little buttons that are hard to see when they dial. This one they keep at the other end of the house.If you have an answering machine you could add a jack splitter to add one before this .I'm sure Radio Shack, Best Buy, Walmart or Staples carries these and an employee could help you if you need help. If you need an answering machine and a phone I would choose a different phone that includes an answering machine all in one.It would be simpler and about the same price.

Yes. However my elderly mother has found it difficult to use. None of us can figure out how to use speaker phone, something she really needs

I'm not sure what you mean by "handheld" but I forward calls from this line to my cell phone everyday when I am not in the office. This unit has its own answering machine as well, or you can just use the voice mail option through Verizon.

Hi Janet, This phone does not have a compatible cordless option. The receiver is attached with a cord. However, it does come in a cordless model: ClearSounds CLS-A1600. I bought this phone for my 98 year old grandfather who has some moderate hearing and vision loss. This phone has improved his life so much and I highly recommend it!

Cordless. Sits on a base that plugs in but you can pick up the kettle and move anywhere. No batteries.

This intercom system cannot be used as a baby monitor, since you have to press and hold button for someone to hear on the other unit. We bought it so my elderly mother could call if she needed anything, instead of trying to walk up and down stairs. Worked really well when she stayed with us over the holidays. For this type of use, I highly recommend it!

Yes, I feel it is. I bought one as well for my 82 year old Mother. You can plug it into any wall outlet so no money spent on batteries. This is strong enough to knock a man down. Considering the price it is well worth it. Hope this helps.
