Didn't work properly

 

It didn't work correctly first thing out of the box. No display panel, unable to change speeds on the VCR. Refurbished? I think not

Did not last

 

The VCR part of this did not last one year...I expected much more for the price. We have had cheaper players last for years. Completely disappointed.

Didn't work

 

I could not get this DVD recorder & 4-head Hi-Fi VCR with in-line recording to work. I followed the instruction on how to hook it up and all I ever got was blank screen. So I returned it.

Not a star

 

I use this one like the 57 but it has no tuner so only records from a source that does. It is a duper for my discs and a saver for my tapes but cumbersome to connect. Not for the non geek.

VCR stopped working after 2 years

 

Bought it two years ago looking for a quality DVD/VCR combo after having two other DVD/VCR combo units from discount stores fail. Worked fine until a few days ago. VCR will play a tape for about 3 seconds, then stops. So the kids could watch some VHS...

VCR/DVD combo unit

 

We bought the new unit, rather than the reconditioned unit. It was easy to connect and has proven easy to use for the obvious tasks like playing pre-recorded disks or tapes. On the down side, we are still hosed on recording off of the incoming cable...

Possible Internal Cooling Fan Issue

 

I purchased this unit to play and record both DVD's and VHS tapes and it does it well the only issue I have with it is that I hear the cooling fan running quite often even when I'm not actually using it. It's always pluged in but I wouldn't think that...

VCR Is Junk

 

Got it on June 13th, tried the VCR on June 23rd and it would not load a VHS tape into position, It loaded them at an angle. I sent it back on June 24th and I am waiting for a refund. I bought a used JVC and it works perfectly.
