End The Curly Cord Blues By Joan Young on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
Cord Detanglers are a swiveling phone cord connector which keeps your curly cords from getting so hopelessly kinked.
For under $10 you can end one of those small frustrations that plague land-line phones. This little swivel connecter simply plugs into the phone handset. Plug the cord into it and you are ready to go! Most of the time now I may have only one to three twists in my cord after a normal phone call instead of the many that I used to somehow end up with. If there are any twists at all you can just swivel the connector manually to easily remove them.
I've had this little gadget for about ten years now, and it has never been a problem. It doesn't reduce the sound quality on the phone, and has never caused any kind of short, making a conversation blink in and out. I don't know why they don't just sell phones with these already on them!
Admittedly, my phone cord is only about 4 feet long, but after you got a longer cord untangled once, and began to use this device, I don't know any reason why it wouldn't work as well in that application. At the very least it makes it really easy to manually remove the kinks.

Wow I didn't know such a product exist. I sure would love to have that since I always end up with knots and tangles on my phone cord. I like that your product is durable and you've used it for ten years. That's really something!
What a nifty product! I hate those long curly snaky cords-yucch. I agree Sharkbytes, why don't they just include them with the phones???? Great video:)
NEVER have heard of this-why didn't I invent this!? It's brilliant & I loved your accompanying video!!!!!
I like your video! I still think a cordless phone will solve more problems in the long run, but I might pick one of these up for my mom who uses the curly cords so she doesn't lose her phone!
Love your video and it is a great idea. I would love to get one of these for my phones at work. Thanks.
Great video, descriptive and shows you how to use it. i don't have curly cords but if I did I would be all over this!
I used to use one of these on our phone before we got the cordless. They really do make a big difference! The video was great for showing exactly what the device looks like.
Great video! I only have one corded phone at home, but this would be very handy at the office.
It looks such a simple solution to an annoying problem. Thank you for the video demonstration.
What a great product for all the corded phones out there....are there any left? lol!
