CrosleyRadio Cr55-Bk 302 Corded Phone

Looks great out of the box, and was very easy to install. Looks great, but it is made of plastic and lacks vintage ‘feel’. The actual ‘ring’ is also vintage, which is a nice touch!Very happy overall with this phone and would buy it again.

Me encantó, tal como lo imaginaba, su diseño es increíble, su ring old style y el material de excelente calidad, se escucha muy claro al realizar y recibir llamadas; muy satisfecha con mi compra. :)

First of all: love the phone. The color is deep and rich and goes perfectly with my red-and-white midcentury kitchen. The solid heft of the receiver is pleasing and the sound of callers' voices is loud and clear.As other reviewers have noted, you cannot replace the receiver cord, which is permanently affixed to the receiver, so ignore Amazon's recommended extension cords. For me the cord length is sufficient, but if you like to walk from room to room you won't be able to with this phone.If you're worried that this is a modern knockoff with cheaper construction than a true vintage phone, that may be true. But you can buy with confidence because if something goes wrong, Crosley will go out of their way to make it right. Shortly after purchase (but too late to exchange at Amazon), my receiver cord developed a problem. I contacted Crosley through their website and they immediately shipped out a replacement receiver and cord, no questions asked. A customer service rep got in touch with me personally to verify my shipping address and make sure the replacement worked. I've rarely experience that level of customer service from a manufacturer -- it was a surprise and a pleasure.

Buena calidad, sonido y diseño

I have no idea why people are giving it any bad reviews. If it buzzes, send it back for a replacement! I just redid my kitchen in retro pastels, opting for red color "pops" of red. Tired of my cordless phones, most of which don't work, I decided that the little bit of time I spend using a land-line certainly did not warrant 8 cordless extensions. So I tossed them all out for this one wall phone. I say "old" with a shiver, as I grew up with rotary wall phones like this.Someone complained below that the phone was "tethered" to the hand set. Um....Do you understand the concept of a wall telephone?This phone is just as I remember them being (expect for a rotary dial which would be completely impractical). It is solid, and the handset is a bit heavy when compared to current smart phones. That's how these phones were!It sets off my retro kitchen well. It invites countless unsolicited compliments. And everyone picks up the receiver to listen. Kind of funny. Great phone. Great vocal quality. Good ring (adjustable). Be aware that the handset cord is hard wired so you can't exchange the cord for a longer one. It clearly says that in the ad but, again, some people who complained obviously didn't realize it.
