This set is great! We were given just the telephone for my daughter's first birthday and she is now 15+ months old and still plays with it for a long time. Then when we were out, I saw the "keys" at a local retailer and bought those also. She loves the keys too. Previously, when she would play with my keys, she kept (on purpose) pushing the "panic" button on my car keys and the alarm would keep going off. So now she can press the buttons on this key set and get to hear varous sounds. I typically take both of these items out of the house, for her to play with when she has to be in the stroller or somewhere like a waiting room. I'm actually thinking about buying the set so that I can keep one set in the house and the other in the diaper bag. I know some reviewers have listed some problems. But we haven't had any issues.

We bought these both for my daughter when she was about a year old. From a young age she's been fascinated with electronics - especially remotes and phones - just about anything with buttons. We wanted a variation that was safe, clean, and didn't mean losing our remote, keys, or portable phone constantly.

These two toys definitely fit the bill, and are a must-have for car rides or grocery store trips.

The keys have been the most resiliant of the two toys. They've been tossed to the ground over and over, drooled on, you name it, and are still going strong.

The cell phone, sadly, hasn't endured the abuse. The flip-top is broken, and the phone sometimes doesn't work correctly. The sound quality, as other reviewers described, has decreased dramatically. Yet, for a $7.00 toy, I don't really have any complaints on that front. If it breaks altogether, I'll get a new one.

The points where these toys score highly with me are that they feel like the real deal to my daughter - they don't seem quite as chunky and kid-toy-like to her, and that has scored points in entertainment value. Secondly, the volume level isn't ridiculous, as it is with so many other toys, and that's nice for car rides.

All in all, pretty decent, cheap little toys. They are totally worth the money, and I would highly recommend them both.

We have both items, and our son loves them both. We got them when he was 15 months old, and he is 2 1/2 now and still plays with them. The cell phone is especially a hit. We love that it looks like a "real" phone, and have so much fun recording messages for him to play back. When other children come to our house, they always want to play with this phone too. Both the phone and keys have held up well for us - we recommend them!

After our first battery change in the key set, we were unable to replace the battery cover - the screws seem to be stripped. I can only surmise that they are very cheaply made. We also had trouble with the cell phone - after a few months of use some of the buttons no longer make the sounds they are supposed to make. I would highly recommend going with another product if you want to buy your child a play cell phone and set of keys!

We bought these for our son when he got interested in our cell phones and keys. He likes them both, and they're great for entertainment when we're in the car. The keys have a variety of sounds (car starting, etc.) and the phone talks back and plays music. The phone is especially cute -- after you open and close the cover, it will wait a few seconds and then ring, encouraging the child to pick it up and play more.

Of course he still prefers "the real thing," but he's willing to be distracted by these, so we keep them handy.

We didn't have any trouble with these toys. Our rough and tumble twin boys loved them and never wore them out.

These look great- very realistic and my daughter loved to push the buttons, but the sound stopped in both items after less than a month's use. Yes, my one-year-old likes to toss them around, but I doubt she's any rougher than any other one year old! She is no longer interested, now that they don't make noise, so they're pretty much useless to us. They should be built to last longer than that.

My kid loved the phone until it stopped working - within 3 days! I am certain this phone suffered no mistreatment within this short time span, and I changed the batteries just to be sure that wasn't the issue. Only one button works now.

These are cute toys. We bought them hoping that our daughter would want to play with these instead of our keys and phones. These didn't work for that, and the sounds didn't work well for very long. The keys still sound mostly normal, but the phone's sounds are hardly discernable. The "recording" part on the phone is a joke - it's very fuzzy and you can't really understand what you recorded, even though it's usually your own voice!

Do yourself a favor - give your child an old cell phone and an old set of keys. It'll cost you nothing, and your child will probably play with them more!

I purchased the cell phone for the primary purpose of using the recording feature to share "Grandma's Voice". The quality is unbelievably poor. The cell phone does what it is advertised to do, but the voice quality is almost unusable. There is a lot of background tone that almost drowns out the voice. We ended up just tapping a rhythm on the phone so the baby can at least listen to a drum sound! I would NOT purchase the phone again. The keys are ok. No problems with them but they're not spectacular.
