Does the hand set have an independent speaker built into it or is the speaker phone all in the base

The speaker phone is in the handset. This is a good phone for hearing-it cups your ear a bit so it doesn't pick up much background noise.

Actually, it works through both I believe. My mother doesn't really use the speaker, though, she just uses the volume to adjust...

No. You can leave the handset in the base unit and use the base unit's speakerphone with the handset in place..

Each of the handsets have a speaker phone option. The base for answering machine does not.

The handsets have a single 2.5mm audio jack for a headset and mic. The base unit does not have an audio port.

The base and each handset can have the ringer volumes adjusted separately, they are not dependent on each other for volume.

Yes! We have three hand sets and we talk to our long distance relatives so all of us can hear from them in different rooms, using speaker phone or not, with different volumes for each handset. It's great for Grandpa, my Mom, and I to use it to talk to my sister all at the same time!

Each of the hand sets has a base that need to be plugged in. The battery on the phones lasts for a long time. I had it off the charger for 4-5 days and with a few calls each day I still have 1/2 the battery life left.

I would assume the speaker phone function on the base would work since that is directly connected to the phone line, but the hand held phone would not because it is just another cordless phone.

Yes it does have speaker phone on both.The buttons are unique in that they are not separate buttons. More like flat surface with press-ability.Takes some getting used to.The remote handset is on the small side of average, doesn't hold btwn my shoulder & ear well at all.Not my favorite phone, but functional.

This phone is not a stand alone phone. It has a base phone from which it receives the phone info. If you purchase the base phone, you can order a headset that works with the base phone, just as these hand sets do.

Can you use the speaker without needing to pick up the hand set to dial or hang up?

We have had this set for a few years now and the speaker phone is a good set in my opinion. We have no complaints. We have enjoyed this set very much. Not sure what you mean about plugging 2 headsets into the speaker phone though. hmmmm

The product set comes with: the base, the portable handset, and a wall adaptor. You get those three pieces.

No phone jack is needed. This hand set connects with the existing base by wireless connection. It works great.

It has charger/cradle and handset. Works as an extra handset with a base w/handset.
