Product Description
A statement of style, grace and elegance. The 302 Series Phone was introduced in 1937 and was the first in the collection to incorporate the bell in the base of the unit. Designed by Henry Dreyfuss and originally cast in metal, this piece was later produced using a heavy-duty plastic housing. The retro style appearance is combined with a rugged construction earning it the nickname "The Cow's Hoof" because of its lipped hoof-style base. This early desk version served as the standard for the better part of World War II while telephone design efforts were halted due to defense work. Whether for its beauty or its brawn, the Crosley 302 Desk Phone is surely a conversation piece in any setting.

 Not recommended! February 17, 2008

Start exercising your arm muscles before buying this product. The received is very heavy. I purchased this phone for my 81 year old aunt since she had always used rotary phones. She can barely hold the receiver!
I am not too impressed with the design - looks like a cheap imitation and not like the real thing.

Phone arrived quickly. Looks great. It's of sufficient weight that it doesn't slide around when using it. Nice nostalgic ring to it though I wish the volume had more adjustments. All in all very happy.
 Crosley 302 -- made me Cross! December 6, 2007

The hardwired 7' cord is silly for a wall phone. I was intending to put a 25-50 cord on this given that's what it was intended to replace.
The other issue is the ringer....they attribute the "meek dingk" ring to having too many phones plugged in which decreases volume. Hmmmm....the ORIGINAL BELL wall phone that was replaced didn't have any problem with decibels.
While the looks and heft are nice, it doesn't make up for the other deficiencies. Conclusion: NOT WORTH the purchase price.

This is the heavy duty, easy to hold, desk phone with the familiar old-fashioned ring. The flash and redial features are incorporated in the face plate. This is a great product.
