does exactly as claimed !

I bought this to play DVD’s, CD’s,and vhs tapes…It does these things
flawlessly. It has NO tuner (clearly stated) but it will accept tuner input from another source, or even home video or other vhs tapes for
recording on the vhs tape player, also home videos from the included DVD player could be recorded on vhs…unbelievable bargain for all these features. It is a terrific back-up unit in case your main, many featured, higher quality player-recorder fails and has to be returned for service. I have “2″ of them.

Update (9/6/2010): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

I guess I got a bad one….
I’d read great reviews for this product. However, because all of today’s electronics are made so poorly,cheaply,& not meant to last, I’ve had especially bad luck with almost everything I’ve purchased in the last 5 years. Usually I have to make multiple returns.This item is no exception- other than the fact that the outside vendor I purchased it from tells me it is no longer in stock. The problem was that with every VHS tape I played in this deck, the color cut out & back in throughout the play. At first I thought maybe it was the tape which was deteriorating, but usually it’s the picture tracking that goes; I’ve never seen it with the color. When it became apparent that it did it on EVERY tape I played, I had to send it back. As I said, EVERY brand of DVD or VHS equipment I’ve purchased has had problems,they are just not near the quality they were in the `80s. I’d rather pay more & get a better product, but price makes no difference. I guess any one you get will be hit or miss and I’m not even sure the odds are 50/50, so beware of non-Amazon vendors who will have high postage and require you to pay the return shipping.
