This is a fun phone. It is a design throw-back with the same true "ring" of it's day.

The only fault I can find is that the volume setting does not go as soft as I would prefer. This expels the placement of the device from the bedroom.

By the way - great yellow! Bright and upbeat.

This retro phone was purchased as a gift for my Princess (wife) at her request and really rang her bell! I must admit, it brings back memories for me as well. It is simple and straight-forward which is what was wanted. The ringing bell however seems out of synch with all the electroinic tones in the house.
It will also function as a land line in a power outage when all the wireless sets will not. Every home should have one.

The phone is adorable. Love the yellow. The sound is very good--I don't have to strain to hear with it. There is just enough weight to the phone to make it feel solid. Comfortable to use. Design is just a little different from the original, but still very cute. If I could change anything it would be these 2 things: (1) The cradle holds the receiver up a little bit. It takes some getting used to because at first you feel like the phone isn't sitting correctly. (2) When you push the buttons to dial, it makes a sharp noise in your ear, which is a little annoying. I hold it away from me when I dial. These are small things, and I am overall very happy with the phone.
