Great Unit at a Reasonable Price

Some people have criticized this unit for not having a tuner. This is not a fair criticism! In my shopping, I've found that all companies have quit putting tuners on these type units...."

Disappointing

"My grandmother bought one after a radioshack employee assured her that it would work for recording cable TV. I took it out of the box and took one look and knew it would not be able to record from a cable tv source. There isn't a connection for a cable source on the VCR.

The DVD tray did not open, which was needless to say the reason I took it back to the store. The saleperson at Radioshack was very unhelpful, agitated by me, …"  Read Full Review »

"After about a year the internal fuse blew on our player. It had a video and a DVD stuck inside. I had to take it apart to retrieve the two items and figured I'd try replacing the fuse just to see if it would work. I replaced the fuse and got it working, but the player broke in several places duri …"  Read Full Review »

"Even though this unit has left & right audio output jacks for VHS section, its VHS section only has standard monophonic audio. I removed the top cover, and verified that there are no hi-fi audio heads on the video drum. Sylvania really cut corners on this unit with a very low-end VCR. Folks with …"  Read Full Review »
