slightly random but i'm going to get my parents some new phones for christmas as you can't here a damn thing on the ones they have !!
can anyone recommend any decent cordless handsets for around the 100 pound mark??
thanking you in advance
I'm a fan of panasonic phones.
Their cordless ones seem pretty good quality without being hugely expensive - if you shop around for a deal.
Cheers

ASDA --- Binatone brand DECT phones
Very good and very cheap we have 4 --- 4 years and no problems.
What ever you do don't buy BT branded cordless phone -- we have had two sets the first only lasted a year, the second set two years.
first set were bt and died after 6 months
second set are ntl (i think) and have gone really quiet after about 4 months
trouble is unless they are installed you cant really test them.
again thanks folks

My BT cordless phones sound like the other person is bloody whispering!
A mate has some Phillips that are pretty good & have a nice 'weight' to them..

well im going to go have a look at the weekend while im out i might do all my shopping as it is my least favorite hobby!!
Be careful that what you buy is simple to operate, for an elderly person if your parents are elderly.
We've just had to take the dect system out of my mo'in-law's place, because she kept pushing wrong buttons, then sending the things
haywire.
Old style are still the best, if you can still find a cordless system with no extra functions. If you do, let me know please. 
Cheers,
Syd.
