AT&T TRIMLINE 210 Corded Home Phone, No AC Power Required, Improved Easy-Wall-Mount, Lighted Big Button Keypad, 13 SpeedDial Keys, Last Number Redial, Mute, Flash, Volume Control, Beige

You really can't find a better "Land Line" phone than this one. Fully functional features sure to please you. Included are: Ringtone Volume that can be turned off. Adjustable sound level from the handset for those who want to hear the person they're talking to a bit louder. Great for a Desk Phone like I am using. Bottom of phone includes wall mounting insets. The unit comes packed with handset and base, length of cord to plug into a wall outlet and full instructions. Is it worth the money? YES! No comparison to other phones within the price range. You'll be happy with this phone, believe me.

Since we have more violent storms now with the power going much more frequently and for longer than ever, we decided to get a land line direct plug phone. Works well, gives some peace of mind in case cell phones without signal. Yes we have a land line and hey, guess our age? Haha. And it’s the pink Longline phone I wanted 50 years ago

This is a fine value. I bought two though neither has a lit keyboard.

This made my mother very happy. She still has a home wall phone and could no longer find this exact one in stores. We had this phone the whole time I was growing up and she’s very happy to have a new one. Works well. Easy setup.

En la descripción decía que era un producto usado y por ello tenía un 50 % de descuento. Lo compré con recelo, y para mi sorpresa venía en su empaque original y estaba en perfectas condiciones, como si nunca lo hubiesen usado. Es lo que buscaba, algo económico, elegante, barato y útil para la cocina de casa.

Didn't ask for much out of this phone. Just needed a phone that can be attached to a wall phone plate and has a ringer, earpiece, mouthpiece and a "9" button - the entire intention was to be the phone that rings when someone comes to the building door, enters our unit number, it calls this phone, it rings, I answer it, confirm who is there and press 9 to open the door.Unfortunately, like seemingly everything these days, somewhere along the line, this classic, once-reliable phone received the typical corporate corner cutting in the quality department. It seemed fine at first, but after only a couple uses (literally!), the button under the earpiece that is supposed to hang up the line broke... So the phone was permanently "off hook." As I had already discarded the box, I did not ask Amazon for a refund (It was under $10 anyhow, so I figured I would chalk it up to learning and never buy anything with "AT&T" imprinted on it, providing services for, etc. - not a difficult move to make as my cumulative experiences with AT&T since the late 1980s have been entirely negative).So, I tossed this piece of junk in the bin and did some research on a better phone - I knew that new businesses such as hotels and airports, etc. still get those solid, well made industrial quality phones that the phone company used to issue when someone subscribed to a telephone line back in the old days before the AT&T breakup in 1984, but where were they getting them I wondered? Well, it turns out, if you only need one, you can get not one, but one of a few different models from Amazon. I selected the Cetis Scitec 2554E Red one because it was red and as it was going in the kitchen, where there are a lot of red appliances (I like Red, what can I say?), it seemed to match my needs. I figured that if I did not like the quality, I would return it and get another model from one of the other manufacturers. All I wanted was a phone built like a tank like they were in the old days... To be honest, The Scitec phone is not so much a tank as it is a Jeep. I say that as the hook is a piece of acrylic or some other rather durable plastic, not the heavy metal hook of yesteryear. It is also lighter and thus less durable than those old phone that the Bell Company hung in my Mom's kitchen in the 1970s. Those old phones back then were occasionally featured in film and TV for the useful purpose of bludgeoning to death someone who oh so rightly deserverd it before Columbo arrived in the morning with his "oh, just one more thing" and...That having bean said, if the current incarnation of the 210 phone were used to whack someone in the head, all that person would get is a very cross face as the attacker stands there with a sheepish grin and a a bunch of cheap broken plastic in their hand!Speaking of broken plastic... When I tossed the thing in the bin, the handset split in half and bits came flying out. I did not throw it in there with any force... I simply tossed it... what a piece of crap!

Purchased due to power surge & other lan line stopped working after surge.Soo disappointed with this replacement: very very light, no weight to it…unbelievable to be AT&T product.

Our home had become littered with the invisible weeds of modern technological convenience: three wifi routers (2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands, their powerful signals pumping out radio signals day and night), a few "repeaters" that picked the signal up and boosted it to the far corners of our home, an AppleTV, video baby monitors (2), and our old cordless 5Ghz phones we've had since the dawn of home wifi. The old phones worked beautifully as standalone beacons of communication until their signals became entangled, snared, choked by the growing noise and interference of the newer toys that promised richer communication.I tried switching channels on the wifi routers, moving the video cameras of the baby's rooms to different corners that were farther away, keeping the use of our land-line based cordless phones to a bare minimum to spare ourselves and anyone unfortunate enough to be on the other end of that line the ear splitting bray and crackle of static that I was determined to alleviate somehow, some way.Then, one day the solution presented itself to me in brilliant, shining, pure simplicity. Eureka! That's it! We'll retrograde our land-line communication to The Way It Was, the ways of my childhood, my parents childhood, and their parents.....well, not childhood but at least early adulthood. I was excited to announce my creative, revolutionary idea to my wife."Babe, I've got it. Are you sitting down?""What? I can't hear you. Static.""BABE, I'VE GOT IT. ARE YOU SITTING DOWN? WE'RE GOING TO BUY CORDED PHONES! OUR LONG, FAMILY NIGHTMARE OF STATIC FILLED LANDLINE CALLS HAS ENDED!""What? We're going to buy buttered scones?""Nevermind. I'll tell you when I get home."I was eager to begin my research. (That's what I do, I research tech-y things online. It's like a hobby. A sad, pathetic, obsessive hobby based in consumerist Want and the filling of holes with Stuff....but that's a review for another thing I'll probably buy later this week). What differed about this research was profound: for the first time, maybe EVER, I was not looking for the most advanced iThing, the sparkliest techno-gadget, the most powerful thingamabob. Nay, I was searching for the antithesis of that. The most simple form of long distance communication device available. By "long distance" I mean farther away than the end of my driveway...who wants to actually GO OUTSIDE to talk to anyone these days?. Then, as I searched corded phones, I saw it.The AT&T 210 Corded (yes CorDED) Phone, Black.Yes, yes! YES! That's it. That's The One. I even think my family may have had one very similar if not exactly like one of these back in ancient times, back in my high school years, that nostalgic time when life was new and opportunity a-plenty: the 1980's. And? Could it be? No, that must be a typo. No way could such a simple, pure, elegant communications interface be....$9.34 with my Amazon Prime membership! No, certainly that must be a typo.Dear reader, it was not. It was true. I could hardly continue my review of this wondrous discovery through the tears of joy blurring my screen and setting my heart alight. Oh, what joy! Why buy just one? Why not by a half dozen of the little buggers? They're so..cute! So simple! I'd put them in every room.No, no. That would be wrong. I don't NEED six land line phones (both my wife and I have iPhones, for goodness sakes). Let's not get crazy.But two. Yes. Two. That's the perfect amount. One upstairs, one downstairs in the kitchen. My wife and I could recreate that long-lost practice of yelling upstairs to the other "Pick up the phone! It's your Dad!", then hearing the clunks and thunks as the handset is lifted from its cradle, then balanced on the shoulder. Yes, that's it! Two. What a pure number, what a perfect end to a truly fruitful and satisfying research session.The End.PSOh, as far as how the phone actually works? PERFECTLY. Clear, crisp, and - best of all! - provides the ability to execute that long-lost satisfying slam of the phone when hanging up on robocalls, rude telemarketers, and the like. SLAM! Oh, so much more satisfying than tapping the glass screen of my phone, or pressing the tiny OFF button of our old cordless phones. SLAM! So wonderful, so satisfying. SLAM!!!Maybe I should have bought six after all.
