We recently got a Uniden three handset model. I too am hard of hearing and I
was happily surprised that I can hear these units. (There is a big choice of
different ringing tones.)

There used to be mechanical "baseboard ringers". These would wire into
the
phone line, and screw to a baseboard or wall. So that when the phone
rings,
it echos and jangles through the house. An auxilliary ringer might make
more
sense than trying to find a cordless phone with a low tone ring. I doubt
any
of the half brained idiots who design cordless phones know that hard of
hearing people are more likely to hear low notes.

Check garage sales for a mechanical bell phone.

Can someone recommend a cordless phone that rings LOUD? My parents
recently
replaced their phone with one that they don't hear easily. It's only been
a
week and already I've run over there a couple times afraid that they were
laying somewhere unconscious only to find that they didn't hear the phone.
I
went to Target, Bestbuys and Kmart to take a look but you couldn't hear
the
ringer before buying. Of course they all said, "Just bring it back if it's
not loud enough." I'd like to just take one more trip to the store.
