Anyone Using Cell2Jack To Eliminate Home Phone Service ??

[Naturally]

I just purchased a Cell2Jack and was wondering about other's experience.

What it does is connect home phones with up to two cell phones using bluetooth.
I think Panasonic makes home phone that connect to cell phones too.
I paid $35 for the Cell2Jack and Panasonic phones that connect to cell cost about $100

If it works out, I will save about $500 a year by not needing a landline phone.
I've already canceled my landline service and so far the Cell2Jack is doing okay.
Voice quality isn't as good as landline but no cell service is.
So I talk on my home phone receiver but it still sounds and "feels" like cell phone conversation.

Can walk out of the house with the cell and it will auto connect to Cell2Jack when I return.

i did have to tweak some settings for optimal usage.
Increased ring, speaker, microphone volume and off hook voltage.

The Cell2Jack operates off 5V power input and the suggestions are to use a power adapter.
One that likely came with the cell phone and plugs into a wall socket works.
But I have a USB port on the back of my WiFi router and that's what I use.

We just got rid of the landline and use the cell phone.

We have not had a landline phone in years !
We just use our cell phones and it is much easer for me. I do not get all of these annoying spam phone calls that used to come in on the home phone, especially right at dinner time.
I can look at my phone or Apple Watch and see if i want to answer or let it go to voice mail. I can’t think of any benefits there would be to even having a home phone anymore.

While I no longer have landline service I still enjoy picking up a receiver on my land line phone. Incoming calls to my cell, now ring on my home phone. And the thing is, I don't have multiple cell phones all over the house and don't carry a cell phone around the house with me.

I do have have two home phone extensions in the bedroom and kitchen ... and they ALL ring when I have an incoming cell call. Cell phone stays put undisturbed on a table and I answer at the phone base or one of the extensions.
