📞 AT&T 1070 4-Line Expandable Corded Phone System: Caller ID/Call Waiting, Speakerphone & Handset - Black/Silver Review

My business is a 24/7 heavy duty diesel power generation and repair service. We're the type that maintains backup diesel generators and other diesel powered infrastructure. We need 100% reliable communication. A lot of businesses are moving to VoIP and that's fine, but we've chosen to keep our phone lines. The system is getting old here, and Verizon isn't Ma Bell. However, these phones eliminate line noise and static and make calls that are comparable to VoIP. We have 8 POTS lines, so two of…

Bought these for our small law office and they are great 4 line phones. We used to only have two lines, but we've grown and added two more lines. This was ideal as we didn't want to invest in a phone system as these are analog phones. They are simply plugged into a normal telephone socket. Most business phones sold today are digital, and we didn't want that. All we had to do was ask the phone company to install a two jack jack (you can only use one jack for each phone line) instead of one…

I have 11 of these phones in various places around the house and in a nearby barn. They work very well and are a very easy and inexpensive way to build an office style phone system.

The 1040 and 1070 also work very well, they just don't have as many features. I started building my system a few…

Now that I have it connected I have no problems with the phone and I like its features. The difficulty was getting it to work with three of my lines, specifically lines 1 and 2. A phone jack MUST be used to connect both lines, so a two-line wall outlet and a 4-wire phone cord is required (cable included) . However, if you have two separate phone jacks for lines 1 and 2, you need a solution to connect them with the same four-wire cable. The instructions advise you to use a phone adapter, an…

I bought 16 of these phones to replace AT&T's 955 model phones for a customer who was getting on in years and needed more than 12 stations to support the old phones. After looking at other 4-line phones, these turned out to be the best choice. However, one of the sixteen phones was inherently defective. The shortcoming was the "lack of speakerphone" - a common complaint about this model. Revain quickly replaced the broken phone. The phones have been in use for a week now and the staff still…
