Cordless phone with handsfree kit???

Need to replace my very old phone and wanted to get a cordless so I am not stuck in one place whilst in an endless holding pattern for the bank / phone company / electricity company / etc...
Thing is I would really like a cordless phone with a hands-free option (not loudspeaker) so that I can do the housework, make jewellery, practice handstands (only joking) whilst I am on the phone.
Does such a thing exist??
Not keen on using speakerphone as hate the background noise it creates and always end up shouting into it...
Any tips?

How can it be hands free without a loudspeaker?0

Just like you have a handsfree kit for your mobile or if you work in a call centre.
I was wanting to use that type of headphone/microphone combination.
Thanks

Oh right. Samsung do a excellent range with a optional headset.0

Our Panasonic cordless phones have a handsfree 3.5mm audio jack, work with most microphone/headphone combo.0

Thanks isofa. Is the audiojack in the actual handset or in the base unit?
Thanks

Hi KG, it's in the cordless handset, they are 2.5mm jacks not 3.5mm, our current models are the Panasonic KX-TGA810E (handset model, silver with a colour LCD screen), but we've had previous ones, the KX-TCD735 which have the same. All on the side of the handsets, covered by a rubber plug.0 -
Samsung have just come top in which? magazine.0
