Retro Traditional Landline Phone (Visible Ringing Indicator), Classic 2500 Analog Desk Phone Hearing Aid for Elder, Vintage Corded Desk Telephone for Landline Large Button, Old School Phone Home,Black

Purchased for a photoshoot & it worked great! I didn’t realize this actually works as a landline phone—didn’t use it for that but you could! Super cute and trendy.

I bought this for my mom, who has dementia and has trouble seeing. She has forgotten how to use a digital phone, so I got this for her, and she has no trouble answering the phone now.However it is a bit quiet, and the red light is not bright (not that she is checking for voicemails these days.)I do have a few suggestions for manufacturer:Mostly older people will be purchasing this, SO.....:- I feel like the light should be brighter and should indicate that a call is coming through, rather than a voicemail- the keys could be a lot bigger- you could have some cute colors. These are a little depressing ... ;)A younger person would only be buying this for a gag or for retro decor; older folks have trouble hearing, seeing and remembering are your target for this product, so if you made those changes, I think it would be great. The digital phones really do not cater to older people - they have volume control and larger keys, but the units are so complicated that elderly people can't really use them - at least this has been my experience, which is pretty vast at this point. :)Thank you!

Cute phone, it definitely works. It sounds great, but people tell me I sound a little muffled. I was really looking forward to the red light, but that doesn’t seem to work. I did see a little flick of light one time, but it hasn’t happened again since. I’d still buy it again but don’t plan on your light working, as stated in other reviews.

This phone is lightweight, not heavy like the originals from the 80's, loud ringing, and clear voice volume for those hard of hearing. Highly recommend if you have someone that needs a simpler phone that is hard of hearing. The light flashing when it rings is an added bonus.

Not as heavy as the old original phones, which I know sounds like a plus, but part of what I wanted was the heft of those old-school phones. Plus, it *seems* smaller although everyone else who looked at it in real life assured me it was of appropriate size.Other than that, it has the mechanical ringer, when you shake it you can hear the bell, and it seems good quality, if light, although I never plugged it in to test it. Button press feels pretty good. Other than the weight (and maybe the size although again that may just be bias on my part) its like a functional version of the old-style phones in non-cigarette smoke stained plastic.

Nostalgic phone and clear to use

weight of receiver not heavy enough to depress hang up and even when pushing with hand wont disconnect. also volume is virtually non existent

I bought a $20 flip phone from the dollar store (Pre-paid phone) and I ordered the Cell-2-Jack to go with this cool phone. Now I turn the Bluetooth on my cell phone to "on" to connect with the Cell 2 jack and BOOM! I now have a portable Land line set up that just costs me $16 a month. And Yes this phone works Amazing. The middle of the handset has a switch to turn the volume up and down. I keep my flip phone next to this phone as a caller ID because the face shows who is calling. This phone IS LOUD. If you put it in a full and carpeted room then yes the acoustics will be muffled down to hard to hear so I put in my hall and the sound bounces off the walls loudly. The dial keys are quality feel and there is a panel where my finger is to place your phone # ....This phone does not use batteries or plug into the wall. You can do it the way I did it (No cords and grab to go ) or just plug your phone into it as needed.
