Good For The Money:
The DVD player didn't work on the first one I got, but Amazon was quick to make it right by sending me another. The new one works as expected for the money spent.

Overall, a good buy with an easy to use menu and great picture quality.

When in pause mode (vcr) after 5 min it will start to play again. The remote is easy to use, not complicated at all. Thinking about getting a second one for future use.

After extensive study, I warned my wife that finding a good VCR player is a crap shoot, but this model seemed the best choice... I LOST. The VCR player could fast forward and rewind, but WOULD NOT PLAY. I spent about 1/2 hour with tech support and they told me to send it back for repair. I opted to return it to Amazon. That process was simple and straightforward, a benefit of buying from... more info
