Works great, worth the money.

Bought to replace a broken block. It arrived quickly and in excellent condition. It was easy to hook up and plays great. They even informed me that the remote control would be sent separately. I would buy from them again anytime. I am happy with my purchase.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Doubt

Super price except for 2 warranty claims

I bought this device because of the high purchase price. The VCR stopped working after about a week and was repaired under warranty at a local store in Hawaii. Now, exactly one year after purchase, part of the DVD is broken. Luckily it's still under warranty, but I have to ship it to New Jersey (I currently live in Florida). The unit worked great and it was a good deal at $130 even with two claims under warranty.

Pros
  • Super price
Cons
  • Updates

Certified and Refurbished? The only thing about it is that it was well packaged and well cleaned. It doesn't matter if IT DON'T WORK! The device turns on but turns off again immediately after the DVD dock (with or without DVD) is closed. I found an instruction manual on the internet and am trying to figure it out, but I'm disappointed!

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • Something Else

Missing features and glitches

Thought I'd save on some connectors and components . So here's what happened in less than a year of use (only one VCR played): 1) LOTS of problems with the unit not ejecting DVDs and CDs. It will just sit there and spin. And wait a few hours before trying to figure it out. Sent it back to Samsung and their comment (after I paid S&H) was "Couldn't reproduce the problem". GAHH!2) Poor CD/MP3 playback capabilities. Absolutely NO random/shuffle options. But the selection of MP3 titles on the screen

Pros
  • S-video out, component video out, front and rear composite video in, and composite video out
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Outstanding price-performance ratio

I bought this model about a year ago and while I was pleased with the unit I didn't think it was a bargain at the time. But now that you can get it for almost $$$ less than when I bought it, I can only recommend it as an extremely good deal. (Although I'm a little offended that I paid that much at the time. That's life.) The DVD section is excellent. It played everything I crammed into it, including Asian VCDs. The VCR section has good picture and sound, nothing special compared to the DVD of…

Pros
  • signal-to-noise ratio 120 dB; 100dB audio dynamic range
Cons
  • No automatic

Great DVD/VCR at an affordable price

This is the first DVD-VCR combo I've ever owned I have and like to use. I like the ability to play CDs and MP3s. There is no fast forward or shuffle function for MP3 tracks. Its performance is quite satisfactory when watching DVDs and VHS tapes. Tape rewind is very fast, if a bit noisy. The unlit remote is crammed with useful controls and is pretty well thought out. The device has a high quality appearance. The picture and sound quality of DVD and VHS is excellent. The back of the device is…

Pros
  • Plays DVD, DVD-R, CD, Video CD and CD-R/W and Photo CD
Cons
  • Not sure
