Excellent VCR, low price!

I've had this VCR for about a year since my 7 year old Hitachi broke. It was very important to me to have the commercial promotion capability that my Hitachi had and I was happy to find it in a VCR that costs ten times less! Ad preview is a great feature that actually marks commercials as recordable so the VCR automatically previews them during playback. You will save so much time that you may never watch live TV again! So far I haven't had any problems with the device - it has excellent stereo

Pros
  • Automatic clock and channel setting makes setup quick and easy.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Demanding and refuses to play many tapes

I actually accidentally bought two versions of this - one was from Quasar and was very cheap but gave me problems so I went and bought a stamp - found it was an identical model (can't remember what the quasar looked like when I was in the shop)! Even the instruction manual was the same - only the brand name has changed. All the controls are fine and the recording quality is good, but many commercial cassettes won't play - they just throw them away, get stuck loading, and I have to take the lid…

Pros
  • Index lookup and tape position display makes navigation and recording easier
Cons
  • So far so good

Smart commercial advertising at a good price

I had a choice between Panasonic 4623S and Sony SLV-N700 and bought both to work side by side comparison . The Sony model is more expensive but has more features like VCR+, quasi-SVHS playback and a handy snooze button. The rewind speed is very fast and I prefer the Sony OSD. For example, the Panasonic model does not immediately display the time counter after pressing the rewind button; It takes a few seconds to show up, making it difficult to find a video from just a few minutes ago. Both are…

Pros
  • 4 head HiFi VCR with commercial advertising, movie ads and universal tower remote control
Cons
  • unreliable
