Review title: deteriorates with time
Product review: i thought getting a more expensive amplified phone would be the way to go--wrong. After about 6 months the keys began to stick and my dialing would get screwed up. Then the static background noise began to increase with any volume adjustment. Pressing the amplify button would actually wipe out any conversation with the increased noise. The tone control was useless from the beginning. I eventually found myself grabbing the standard telephone instead of the StarPlus45. Finally trashed it. My "cheapie" amplified phone from Walmart is doing much better.
