Summary: Cheap, but it works
Review: Hey, Ive had other products from this company (Funai) and had one VCR go out within 90 days and Funai exchanged it for another one. Sure I had to call and wait to speak to someone, but whose customer service lines in electronics dont you have to wait for!!! This vcr I got at another retailer and it has been good. I dont expect much for $50.00 bucks.

Summary: Do not buy!
Review: I bought this VCR about three weeks ago at K-mart. It started eating my tapes 2 weeks ago so I took it back to K-mart ,they wouldn't take it back because I didn't have the box - what a stupid policy!! I then wrote a e-mail to Sylvania requesting a refund or replacement for the VCR telling them I still had the receipt and the accessories. I got a message back saying I would receive a response in 1 business day. That has been at least a week ago and still haven't heard anything. Sylvania's equipment is obviously made cheap and their Customer Service is horrible! Do not buy anything from them or K-mart!

Summary: Very Cheap Piece of Equipment
Review: This VCR is the worst I have owned. Although it has front and rear A/V inputs and rear A/V outputs (which is why I bought it), it plays and records some older tapes (1-2 years old) terribly. Store-bought releases play OK. With some of my older tapes recorded on VCRs I no longer own, the playback of some previously recorded and newly recorded older tapes is jittery and sometimes the entire screen starts "flipping" rendering any positive viewing experience impossible. These same tapes will play perfectly on my 10 year old basic model Magnavox VCR. This I believe is because of very cheap and poorly designed electronics and mechanism within the Sylvania. Very cheap all-plastic case, basically a tub with a top on it. Am not at all happy with it.

Summary: piece of junk
Review: When my old VCR gave up the ghost after several fruitful years, I replaced it with the Sylvania because I didn't want to spend a lot of money with DVD coming in strong. I moved to a new, smaller apt. and gave away all my tapes. I had a couple blank tapes if there was anything crucial I would want. My son needed some Animal Planet stuff (not on his cable company). I taped the first few shows OK, although there was no visible running tape counter. Then when I clicked on again to tape a show he wanted (he's a zookeeper) the screen suddenly said, English or Spanish. I thought I clicked on "English", but Spanish came up. Now all screen choices are in Spanish, but I can't get out of the loop for regular recording. I could get a picture, and the red recording light would go on, but it wasn't recording anything. And a tape I had with a program on it, it would not play back. I am stuck with thie piece of junk.
