Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Crosley Black Candlestick Phone (CR64)
Customer Review: Excellent very solid phone--we love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
Unlike the reviewer whose phone was made of "light plastic," ours certainly is not. In fact, it weighs a hefty 55 ounces, 3 and a half pounds. It rivals the phone of my childhood in being as heavy and as solidly constructed as the original was. It also has a volume control under the base which the original did not. In short, it's not only a trip down memory lane, but a solid instrument as well--rare in these days of cheap phones. It goes beautifully with my rolltop desk and lifts my spirits as well. Modern convenience with a traditional flavor leads us to say, we love it! We think you will, too!Customer Review: 1942
Summary: 5 Stars
I was born in 1942. The first phone that I ever used was identical to this Crosley except without the rotary dial. I would pick up the receiver and ask the operator, by speaking into the mouth piece, to connect me to a phone number. This Candlestick phone is a "blast from the past" but with call-waiting and redial. It requires no electricity so that when our electricity is out for awhile due to a rain storm for example or the cell phone's battery is dead, the Crosley still works because it's a land line. What a great conversation-piece!Customer Review: Love This Phone
Summary: 5 Stars
We built a new house and specifically had a place in a wall built just for this phone. It is just like my grandmother's. When I saw this phone available, I ordered it and I love it. It's not our main functioning phone, but I use it often. It is a real conversation piece for youngsters that have only experienced todays phones. It works great and I love the looks of it. The ringer even sounds like the old phones. I've wanted one like this for as long as I can remember.Customer Review: Get me the newsroom!
Summary: 5 Stars
This replica that sits on my bar becomes the center of attention. Most remember the old movies with reporters running out of the court room and grabbing this model of phone. It is a well built replica with the weight and feel of the original phone (I am an old guy and I remember!). The dial looks like the old rotary but is easy to access push buttons. You can hear very well because the receiver fits of over the ear. I also bought the replica Crosley pay phone.Customer Review: Adorable
Summary: 5 Stars
This phone takes me back many years! I adore it! My Grandmother had one like it except hers had a Rotary dial and this is a push button. It still looks the same. I even have it sitting on a small telephone table with a Doily under it. Reminds me of my Grandmother who I adored! I was very surprised that it even has the black cloth cord like the real candlestick phones had.
