Good Product

"Sony always makes a good product and I expect this to last a good while. One caveat for the technologically challenge, these are not the VCR’s of old. It used to be you can connect your VCR or DVD to the television with a 75 Ohm coaxial cable, but not any more. If you are not planning on using this for a TV with a cable or satellite box, then get yourself a Connectall 200 Modulator by Monster Home Theater. The..." Read Full Review »

NO TUNER - Do your homework first

"We ordered this unit after our old VCR gave out. Nowhere on the order page did it indicate that this unit DOES NOT HAVE A TUNER. In fact, it even touts 'record a show while watching a DVD' giving the impression that it does in fact have a tuner. This unit requires a cable or satellite box or external tuner in order to work. If you are on standard cable (like we are) without a box, this unit will not function for..." Read Full Review »

"I use this to transfer old VHS tapes to DVD for use in the classroom. So far, it is easy to use and works well. Note that, as the name implies, it is basic unit that is only designed to play DVDs and VHS tapes. It lacks any kind of cable connection that would enable it to be used as part of a hom …"  Read Full Review »

"My husband wanted a VHS player because we have hundreds of old tapes. We'd--or rather I'd--shopped for years for one to replaced the JVC that died of old age. (He always sticks me with the research.) I balked at the prices. DVD players are cheap and what does he want with all those old football …"  Read Full Review »

"I know I may be living in the past, but I still have a lot of VHS tapes, and being that I don't plan on ever getting rid of them, this player is a godsend. Sure it will never look like HD, but that is not why I got it. With this player, i'm able to relive all my old memories on tape. DVD playback …"  Read Full Review »

"This unit is in my automation for a leased access cable TV Station. I use the Mini-T-Pro and the IR control for the Sony DVD/VHS machine. That way if anyone brings me a VHS, I can handle it, if they bring me a DVD, I can handle that too. Will buy more to replace older VHS only units and for backu …"  Read Full Review »
