I have cordless phones, but have a third-party cordless phone, too.
Cell service at home is a bit iff, and in the event of a power failure, most cordless phones won't function.
Panasonic and a few other models do have versions that will use the phone in the base cradle to power the cradle so the other cordless units will function for a few hours, depending on use.
I had an old Sony phone that had a battery backup in the base.
I won't upgrade my cordless for a battery backup, but I do keep a wall mount phone.
That Amazon phone it practically 'vintage'. But no CID is a deal breaker for me, and a review says the ringer isn't adjustable, another deal breaker. I shut the ringers off on all but one phone, and without knowing if surgery is easy, I'd pass.
