Title: Cute toy!
Review: Cool replica, just wish they would add in a rotary system for dialing the phone. Also, they need to work on the coin system. My coin door got jammed on literally day one. I had to return it because of this, but out of courtesy, I’ll give them five stars.

Title: I'm happy
Review: I'm not using the phone as A Phone, it's for looks only. It hides the phone plate and I am happy that I decided to purchase the product. Yes,Alot of plastic parts but it's well made and looks great. It fits the bill..... for the price I paid I would buy again for sure. Thanks

Title: Beautiful Vintage Style Pay Phone
Review: I envisioned a red lan-line phone in my kitchen to match the vintage style I have created. I just purchased and received this red pay phone. It fits my kitchen wall and theme perfectly! This phone brings back all of the fun childhood memories I had calling my grandma and classmates. The only difference is it looks like a rotary phone but it has push button features instead. Not a deal breaker for me. The sounds of the coins dropping into the phone bank is also an added feature I remembered and loved. The phone looks heavier than it really is, but the receiver is the heaviest part of the phone. I hope the specialized features on this phone last throughout the LONG lifetime of the phone. We shall see. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.

Title: Cute
Review: We got this because my wife likes the color for the kitchen.It's very attractive. When you put a coin in, it makes a chirping sound like the old phones did. How long that will last is unclear, as others have pointed out. You don't need a coin to operate the phone; it's just for play and is a quaint feature. It comes with two keys to open the coin tray, which is essentially a bank. This could be fun with kids as a piggy bank.The handset is solid, like the real ones, and the cord stretches about 11 feet. That's pretty darned good.The downside?1. It's push button, not rotary. Where the 1 and 2 are on real pay phones, you'll find the * and #, and 1-9 starts where the 3 is.2. It's made of very cheap plastic, not the metal you find on the real deal. But you'll only notice that when you lift it, which should only be once for mounting. In use, you don't notice this at all.It's an attractive ornamental piece, with very good sound quality. If you like the way it looks on this site, you'll love it in your kitchen. It is a quality working phone; it was a conversation piece at our annual T-giving family dinner for sure.

Title: Pretty nice
Review: It’s all plastic but shouldn’t be surprising considering how cheap it is. Still looks really good

Title: Bought as a theater prop
Review: I have not had the opportunity to use this as a phone. Bought as a prop for a theater production, and it looked great hanging on the wall of the set.

Title: Low Quality
Review: I ordered this phone in January of 2024. The sound quality was awful. I returned it for a replacement which was just as bad. I contacted Crosley directly and was sent a replacement handset. Still no improvement. I returned the whole phone to Crosley for repair. Whatever they returned, a repaired phone or a replacement, is still subpar. The sound is akin to talking in an empty barrel - metallic and echoey. Overall cheaply made and not worth the money.

Review: I found mixed reviews with this product, but saw one in real life, and didn't think it was too bad. Got mine a day or so ago, and for the price paid, it is a decent unit. Yes, it is plastic (like everything these days), but it is reasonably well made and if you wanted metal, I am sure this phone would have to be priced at a minimum of triple the price offered.The sound is good on it, and handled carefully, and it should last.The manufacturers have thought out this phone well -- I use DSL internet and had a conditioning filter that was nearly an inch thick on my wall before... Crosley had left enough room that I can get a smaller filter easily in a recess in the back and thus, place this phone fairly flush to the wall. The pulse/tone and volume switches are on the back and not accessible once the phone is place on the wall -- set these up before you hang the phone and all will be well.....

Review: The phone looks great, from a distance. The closer you get to the plastic shines through and looks rather cheap. The coin slot actually accept coins that carry thru into the bottom of the phone. There is a small key to unlock the coin catcher to remove the coins. When it was brand new when you dropped a coin into the slot the phone would sing like the real ones used to do. That lasted for about the first 15 coins or so then stopped working.

Review: Nice looking piggy bank that doubles as a phone. The volume on the ear piece is a little low for these ears and the numbers on the dial are impossible to read making dialing a challange. An actual rotary dial system would have been excellent. Here in Canada they eliminated 1 and 2 dollar bills. Our loonies and toonies do not fit but it is still fun hearing the ring for quarters, dimes and nickles spare change put into the slot.

Review: When I purchased this phone last year I was initially pretty happy with it although I do think it’s very overpriced. I’m really regretting this purchase now as three months in the phone would no longer ring and although I can make calls on it the fact that it doesn’t function properly functional defeats the whole purpose of having a landline in the first place. Unfortunately when it stopped working properly it was past the return date.

Review: I feel the product was a little light weight and I thought it would be bigger. Its an ok phone. I was disappointed that the coin box didn't have a key,so I'm not sure how I get coins out of there. Also the return coin button isn't functional, while at least on mine. I really wanted this phone and when I got it I was disappointed '
