All That!

"So far, so good. These are difficult to find now and I'll probably order another one--I thought it was a good deal. I've read reviews for other rewinders and they are hit-and-miss. So far this is a hit. I still use VHS tapes to record TV shows and my VCR can no longer rewind the tapes. This is a basic model--it does not have a counter, so it rewinds the whole tape to the beginning. I am very satisfied...." Read Full Review »

Does just what it says

★★★★☆

    Pros

  • Easy To Use
  • Improves Performance

    Cons

  • No fast forward option

    Best Uses

  • Rewind VHS tapes
 

"Our VCR's have reached a point where they no longer rewind properly. It was taking nearly 30 minutes to rewind one 6 hour tape. This rewinder does the job in under 5 minutes. Works perfectly each time. We bought ours more than six months ago and would buy again. "
