( Inline DSL Phone Filters ) …just un-plug filters …from all jacks in the home or you will have a humming noise on the line ..This phones ringer is manufactured to be set on medium ..just about perfect ..you can not change the ringer volume ……There is also a switch under the phone for listening volume …normal or a high position …we have chosen the high position for listening and is rather perfect ….This model in particular looks better than the picture… when we had set it up ..you will not be disapointed .. i have a feeling this model will be a big seller in the future ..for retro new issue .Also the large Circle sticker you see in the middle of the buttons is a ( Large double Switch Button) ..if you press the upper part of that circle ..it is a Flash Hook button …if you press the lower half of the circle …it is a Redial button …The Flash Hook button is used for confrence calls (more then two people talking on the line)…or ..( Call Waiting ..).The Flash Hookbutton for instance you make a call to your best friend .. have them hold ..you push the flash hook button ..you get a dial tone ..and call your other best friend ….hit the flash hook button again ..now you have a confrence call with all friends on the line ..shooting the breeze …all and all this is a great phone …This phone was purchased also to remove Cordless Frequencies from the home ..for a more healthier envirement

Ring A Ding Ding

Love love love! This phone works SO well and it’s such a cute addition to our office. The ring isn’t too loud and the sound is fine. Everyone that notices it falls in love instantly. The cradle itself is very comfortable to talk on. The buttons look like they’re rotary but they’re actually push buttons, which I appreciated because I am not that patient. We needed something that couldn’t be carried off or left under the couch (life with boys) so people could reach us. Some people don’t realize that when the electricity goes out you lose your cordless phone, and it’s a good idea to have one that actually plugs into the outlet and doesn’t require electricity.

simple phone much like the 50s phone from her younger years that she …

Bought this for my 92 year old mother-in-law who gradually developed trouble using the cordless, which had multiple features that confused her.It is a basic, simple phone much like the 50s phone from her younger years that she could relate to. Now, she has no trouble!

A nice throwback.

I know not a lot of people use landline phones anymore, but I still find a use for them in my home and it allows me to keep a minimal-cost plan for my family’s cell phone lines. The sound is crystal-clear, and the long power cord allows the whole unit to be carried around the room while talking, just in case one needed to go to the desk and write something down. My only issue with this device is that the cord for the handset is hardwired into the handset itself and the base unit. This makes the handset impossible to replace, should it fail. A benefit of this, I suppose, is that it prevents wear and fatigue that a jacked handset would normally fall victim to. Overall, I say this is a very good buy, and an attractive piece that would be useful for anyone who still uses landline.

GOOD phone but COULD be better!!!!!

Ok this phone is REALLY NEAT!!!!!…..the colour is REALLY teal,and the cord and buttons are not a bright red which is a good thing for me,but does add a splash of colour to compliment the teal…..so WHY 4 stars?????…..the dial info in the pic has authentic British info(999 for emergency,and 100 for operator)…..I realize this is the USA,and it is USA that the phone will be used in,but wanting this to have the British label info as pictured,because the phone is supposed to be a British replica,and SHOULD have the British label info,NOT USA info!!!!!…..I mean we KNOW that in USA 911 is emergency and 0 is operator…..this has TWO volume settings,normal and high,however the normal will blast you out if you use this at your desk,which is where mine is at…..WISH the manufacturer had made a OFF,as it NEEDS it if you don’t want to be woke up!!!!!

Neat

It’s neat but I wish we could turn the volume down more it’s SO loud when it rings

It was almost love.

I guess I should clarify this way: I loved this phone. I loved to look at this phone. I wanted to love this phone. There’s so much that’s fun about it!The only problem is that the numbers 7, 3, and 1 would only work about a third of the time. So, oftentimes, I’d have to re-dial phone numbers over and over again, just to find success in dialing. It got pretty frustrating. I contacted the seller and was told they did attempt to find me a replacement (or solution), but that they weren’t able to reach the manufacturer in the U.K. The wait got a bit too long, so I decided to go ahead and return the phone for a refund. It was a bummer. I was so ready for this to be my new favorite thing in my office. I just need the buttons to work every time I dial. I’m a diva that way. ;)

Super bummed

The phone will not ring - as in no volume. When I tried to place a call, there was so much static that the person on the other end could not hear me. I tried to connect the phone in 3 different rooms, but the problem did not go away. I loved the color and make of the phone, and so wanted it to work. Needless to say, I put a request in to return the item. :-(

I was disappointed overall.

the ring is unpleasant. I bought a longer cord for it and it doesnt fit because it is not a standard size outlet! I was disappointed overall.

Five Stars

Very cute and retro.

Nostalgia cool phone

Very easy to install and very cool looking. Love it.

We use it with out VOIP service and we have great sound quality

So cute. I forgot how satisfying it is to hang up a phone. We use it with out VOIP service and we have great sound quality.

it seems pretty loud to me

Works well for me, I saw other reviewers commented on the sound (ringer), it seems pretty loud to me, I do have a 3 story cabin, its not large, so maybe that’s why I can hear it.

LOVE IT! It’s quirky and fun and I get …
