AT&T Trimline® 210 1-Line Corded Phone

Pros: Strong quality performance and long service life in a lighter weight.
Cons: The cord makes drops from tables inevitable - resistance is futile.

POTS? Have I been smokin' or doing the dishes? Not hardly, that refers to Plain Old Telephone Service - something that has been reliable as dirt for longer than I've been around. I have to wonder where most of those old rotary phones ended up with their ...

Pros: Time tested no frills design. Does not require AC power to operate.
Cons: Somewhat heavy handset. No LCD display.

The AT&T Trimline 210 is a very basic telephone. It appeals to those who need a simple, no frills telephone for the home or workplace. The most advanced feature the telephone offers is the ability to store 10 telephone numbers into memory. The 210 ...

Pros: Excellent sound quality, durability, low price, backlit keypad, features for the price
Cons: Heavy handset, difficult to say if it is "on the hook"

I got this phone for $10 in addition to my Panasonic cordless phone, because the cordless phone will not work in case of the power outage. Also, I needed two phones but had no need for two cordless ones. And the price of just $10 seemed like a bargain....

Pros: Excellent sound quality, all basic features work well, durable construction
Cons: Handset could be better designed and be lighter

It is a good idea to have a corded phone in addition to a cordless one – the cordless phone will not work in case of the power outage. Because of this, I got this AT&T Trimline phone in black color.

Pros: Durable.
Cons: No HOLD button.

I have several phones in the house and am always changing phones to suit my personal needs. The reason for buying this phone is that it can go on the wall jack or just lay on the bed with a line cord and move it around to suit my needs. Placing it on the ...

Pros: Desk or wall mountable, works when the power is out, hearing aid compatible.
Cons: Even on high the ringer isn't very loud, short cords.

I hate corded phones. It seems that the cord, no matter how long, is always shorter than I need it to be. I end up trapped near the phone so I can't keep an eye on my sons, or anything else for that matter. Plus, it is constantly getting tangled around ...

Pros: simplistic phone, sounds great, blacklight
Cons: nothing fancy (caller ID, answering machine)

My family and I used this phone before we had Caller ID. We didn't need an answering machine on this phone. This phone was used in a hallway by my room. This phone is great for people that don't need an answering machine or Caller ID. I bought it a few ...

Pros: Great value, privacy feature, backlighting
Cons: Button failure (probably a lemon though), it's a corded phone

I recently began college in Pennsylvania. Of course, to be able to keep in touch with family and friends without having to pay a ton of money for a monthly cell phone plan, I needed to purchase a phone for my dorm room. Initially, I had thought about bu ...

Pros: Inexpensive.
Cons: None.

Wanted an inexpensive phone with few features. I have bought many phones loaded with features that only killed its operation latter. I also wanted a phone that would seat the handset. Most inexpensive phone have a poorly designed handset that doesn't hang up properly. You end up having your phone inoperable and not know it.

This phone solved all my problems.
