Title: Reliability and Features are Lacking
Product review: We've had this phone for about two years now.It worked well until about two months ago, when we noticed a pronounced hum/buzz when using this phone. When using the other house phones, the hum/buzz is not present. Seems like an uncomplicated thing like a phone should last for life... like the real phones of yesteryear did.One other thing to consider: this is not a rotary dial phone. It has a circular array of push buttons for number entry. It's not a bad thing, just not what you might expect in a retro phone, and the product photo doesn't reveal this fact too well.Oh, one other thing: The cord is not replaceable as is the case with most "modern" corded phones. In this phone, the cord is a part of the handset; there is no disconnect for it.One last thing: the "redial" function on the phone has not worked since we received it. It didn't annoy me enough to return it, but thought I'd include the information here.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
