5.0 out of 5 stars A simple and reliable telephone, February 6, 2010

This review is from: AT&T 210 Trimline Telephone WHITE (Electronics)

The troubles with cell phones not working after the terrorist attacks in 2001 and the power blackout in 2003 made clear the advantage of a corded land-line telephone in emergencies. There have also been repeated problems with expensive combination telephone/answering machines where one stops working so the whole thing has to be replaced. The frequent and annoying static on various cordless telephones was the last straw so I ordered this telephone over four years ago and have really enjoyed using it.

The backlit dial pad is nice and the easy access to controls for ring and handset volume is great. I don't use the memory dial or emergency buttons but they could be useful if someone has trouble dialing numbers or uses a calling card for long distance. You don't need any instructions to use the basic features, just plug it in, lift off the base and dial, which is a nice change from fancy electronics that take an hour to set up. The handset itself is well-balanced and feels substantial in the hand without being too heavy. The buttons have the right amount of "give".

Overall, this is a nice little telephone, simple and reliable.

A great accessory is this little thing-a-ma-jig that keeps the cord from getting tangled: AT&T 91078 Cord Detangler - 3 Pack (Clear)

2.0 out of 5 stars buzz, December 2, 2011

I like everything about this phone. It is light weight and the buttons are lit and it is simple to operate, but, there is a very noticeable and annoying buzz in the speaker. If it was not for the fact that I will be using it out in the shop where I do not make a lot of calls, I would be sending it right back for a refund. The electronic static should not be present. I tried it in several jacks and the buzz is in the phone, not over the line. I am dissapointed. I know that I did not spend a lot of money, but I do expect AT&T to make a better product or at least have much better quality control at the facility where it was made.

Some things are just better when left alone. This telephone is one such thing. During recent blackouts it was the only thing that worked (cell phone batteries died and could not be recharged - no power). This kept us in touch with the outside world!!
