With the amount of cordless phones on the market, it is easy to forget the importance of having a corded phone in the house. Cordless phones are all very well, unless there is a power outage, then cordless phones are useless. You should always have a corded phone, even if only as a backup. But corded phones have better reception, are impossible to lose and are generally cheaper, so it might be a better option if you are spending a lot of time on the phone. With all the options available, this guide will help you decide which phone to buy.

-Step 1: Features

Just like cordless phones, corded phones come with a variety of features. Decide which one are a must, which ones you would like and which ones you don’t want. You may just decide to buy a basic one, or you might want a full-featured business phone.

-Step 2: Budget

Decide on how much you would like to spend, and stick to this budget. There is no point paying more than you want to or can afford, just because it was the only one there.

-Step 3: Style

Do you want just a plain office phone, or would you like a stylish, old- fashioned phone? Corded phones come in many different styles, so have a look around to find the one right for you.

-Step 4: Look around

Look around for the phone you like before making a decision. Make sure you get one that is suitable for your needs, budget and style.

A corded phone should serve you well. They last longer than cordless phones and are likely to stay around for a good few years if you buy a good one. Keeping one around the house will give you peace of mind if you are ever in a situation where you have no power and you need to contact someone in an emergency.
