Sylvania 6260VA VCR

Pros: Great value, hi-fi, nice remote, compact size
Cons: flimsy construction, no flourescent display, overly sensitive to macrovision

When the VCR in the kids room finally started to flake out I decided to replace with a Hi-Fi unit. I budgeted $75 but was quite pleased to find this unit on sale for only $39.99! While it's easy to see where they saved money it is well worth the purchase...

Pros: Nothing comes to mind unless you have an obsession with plugging and unplugging things.
Cons: Poorly constructed, cheap inferior materials, also makes a lovely grinding noise when rewinding.

Purchased this unit on 1/2/04 for $49.95 to replace my aging Panasonic 4-head player that was 12 years old and shot. First clue there was going to be a problem is when I took it out of the box to hook it up and it was as light as a feather. Being made ...

Pros: NONE
Cons: EVERYTHING........READ REVIEW

This Sylvania VCR is the worse. It's cheaply made, once a tape gets stuck in it, it can't be fixed. We bought this VCR about a month ago, recently a tape got stuck in it. COULD NOT, no matter what we did, which included taking the top off, get the tape out. Took it to ABC Warehouse to see what they could do, their advice was to THROW IT OUT, they said it's not worth fixing, it is one of the worse VCR's on the market. I agreed, we threw it out, it was truly a waste of money. I own a Sylvania TV, I've had it for 15 years, the only problem I ever had with the TV was around 3 years ago, the sound went out. It was fixed and still works great to this day. I have no idea what Sylvania was thinking with this VCR. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!
