I've had one of these in a phone booth in my bar/rec room in my house for about two years. It looks great and the audio quality is great. The call information card is easily replaceable. The phone is mostly plastic, but considering that used, real metal payphones typically sell for >$250 in working condition, this is a bargain.

This replica antique telephone completed this newly renewed kitchen. I believe it is what tied everything together. I like the phone altogether, also the coin slots to drop money in to. It takes you back in time.

This item arrived at my house yesterday and I was so excited to pull it out of the box, and then my mood changed drastically. I was very disappointed by the plastic everywhere. The hand held ear piece was the sturdiest portion of the phone. The cradle the handpiece rests on was plastic with a crome colored paint coating. I've seen McDonalds Happy Meal toys that were better put together than this thing. The phone has lots of eye appeal but it won't last in any sort of daily use. I hung the phone on the wall without any difficulty and my daughter and I placed 13 coins in the top of the phone. The wonderful sound effect that happened with the drop of each coin ended after the 13th coin. I really expect something that I pay over $70 for to last for more than 5 minutes, call me crazy!!!! Sound quality of the one and only phone call we made was good but I'm sure that soon the cradle would be snapped off in the floor if anyone didn't use extreme care when hanging up the phone. Needless to say the phone is going back!
