I've wanted this phone since 1963...parents wouldn't allow it (remember when the phone co. owned the phones & charged extra for each extension every month)? By late 70's these were hard to find. Now in mid-age I finally have it & it's quality is great! Very solid & well made. Nice detail is the rotary style touch tone dial. Original touch tone Princesses had awful looking square layout. Only regret is the lack of the night-light feature, so cool on the originals. I have a pink & a baby blue; good things do come to those who wait, even after 43 years! Thanks Crosley. Now if only I could convince my teenage daughters of how cool these cuties really are.

ITS SO CUTE!!!! It works just like any other phone but its better looking then any old gray-silver phone.

I was really surprised as to how heavy the phone was. It's not too heavy but heavy enough not to fly off the table when using it. It's as close to the original as you can get. The only things missing are the rotary dial (that's half the fun!)and the light-up dial. Oh well, I still enjoy it. The sound quality is great and I highly recommend this product.

I have to say I love this phone. I wish more of the phones were made like this. The phone is heavy enough where you won't pull it off a table(like todays type of phone) The volume & ringer are truly loud enough that my elderly mother has no difficulty hearing anyone who calls. Order from the store not thru Amazon. They don't let you know about when the item is to arrive until you already got it. And by that time the neighbors dog might have chewed it up. Which is what happened to me. So I had to replace it, but this time I ordered thru the online store and they made sure it was shipped with signature required. Hope this review was helpful.

love the style of the phone. not sure the mechanism is that high-quality, but we live in a town with sketchy phone service so wouldn't want to unfairly paint the phone as low-quality when it could be our lines. specifically, it seems like there is a delay when you're dialing. and i often feel like it might drop the call at any second. but everyone in our town complains of bad phone service.

So tired of poor-quality, cordless phones. we love the old-style, land-line, corded phone in our kitchen.

Wonderful size for childs a bedroom. My granddaughter loves the phone and the size of the phone for her age (11) is perfect. It fits very nice on the end table. Great buy for the money.

I ordered this phone for a spare bedroom and wasn't expecting a lot. However,I was PLEASANTLY surprised when it arrived. It's a very heavy phone - not a cheap plastic imitation. It has a nice soft ring, and the reception is great - outgoing and incoming. In addition, I love the look and the blue color matches the "beach themed" room perfectly.

Great phone. Nice and heavy. Ringer is loud and annoying as a ringer should be.

Style is true to the 1960's. Ringer is too loud even in the "soft" setting. Buttons are not illuminated so its impossible to see how to dial in the dark. Overall, not worth the cost.

My wife and i love this phone because of its color the wait and the fact that it goes with our bedroom colors
