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.

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.
