Yes it's cheap and has big buttons but it's so flimsy and lightweight and the cord isn't very long so that if it's sitting on a side table and you pick up the receiver, the whole phone falls on the floor. You get what you pay for I guess but I'm going to replace it with a sturdier model.

We made a decision a couple of years ago to not have a phone connected to out landline because of the inability of BT to prevent continuous scam calls on an almost daily basis. However it was pointed out to me that relying on a mobile phone for 999 calls may not be a sensible option. By purchasing this inexpensive phone I now have a method of making the odd outgoing call should I so wish whilst being able to leave the ringer switched off. I am no longer bothered by scammers and yet I can easily make 999 calls. Being a simple phone it does not need to be plugged into a 13 amp socket, another benefit compared to most other landline phones.The sound quality is better than I expected for the price.

Wanted a corded phone that would work even if power was lost. Tried a BT Duet but it would work with our cordless Panasonic answerphone - this one does. Casing is cheap plastic with a nasty "dirty ivory" colour if held up to the light but is OK on a desk. Large buttons are good, very loud ring which can't be changed but that's hardly a problem and some would say an advantage. You probably wouldn't want this in your living room, but as a bedroom phone that works when the power is down, it's cheap and it works!

To be fair I know little about landline phones. I'm going on opinion with this review.The phone works well and is fairly easy to use. It's also being sold at a competitive price. Ideal for casual users of landlines or the visually impaired as buttons have easy to read writing on them.

Totally simple, easy to use - just plug in and go.Very useful for testing your phoneline is functional when setting up WiFi.Also good backup in case of power cuts (I’m in a rural area).You can adjust the ringer volume easily; the sound is clear; it’s great.

This phone is cheap and you get what you pay for. That's not a bad thing though.Assuming this is for a second/occasional use phone, or for one for use in a power cut, it's fine.For a start it's very light, and feels flimsy, even though it's quite sturdy. The buttons are big and easy to use, so ideal for the elderly.There's a small reversable catch to allow this to be wall mounted, and it works fine. Sound quality is on par with any phone I've used before.The ringer has three settings (off, low and high) and on high it's very loud. It's enough to make you jump and can be heard through closed external doors.My only issue was that the phone line in lead (all are supplied) enters through the side at the bottom. It makes it a bit inelegant when handing on the wall. If that's my only issue, then it is certainly a good buy.

This is a very light weight phone, and with the short cables provided it is very easy to knock the whole thing over while picking up the phone standing. It comes with wall mounting screws, which is good, but I would reccomend buying longer cables if this is what you want to do with it.

The ringer is very loud, so we have set ours to low. I guess having a very loud ringer is great for if you're planning to have it downstairs. We live in a flat so that's not a worry for us.

Dialing is very loud in the ear, so I'd reccomend dialing with the receiver away from your ear.

Call volume is fine, though should someone who normally speaks softly call I'll have to ask them to speak up.

The package arrived as is in the box, there was nothing to protect it from damage or theft in regards to hiding what it is.

All in all for a cheap phone it's pretty good. I bought it to be a temporary phone as my usual phone recently failed, so for that purpose it's pretty good.

Overall I am pleased with my purchase.

The telephone was for use in a small office area and is ideal for the desk and does just what I want. Easy to use, easy to set up.

thank you so mush

Seems to work alright. No problems.
