Pros: Records good and easy to use. Cons: Quality is not as good as a DVD.
Summary: OK I am a true DVD fan 100%, they do not have an affordable recording DVD unit yet. So to record programming from your TV, you still have to rely on a VCR.
I picked up the Panasonic PV-9451 at a local store on sale for only $119. It is a hi-fi ... read more

Pros: Normal cheap price point, meets most VCR needs Cons: No autotracking
Summary: Apparently VCR's are starting to get to be disposable. We had to buy a new VCR because our other one (a ~$200+ nicer Sony unit of just 5 years) broke down. Because the one that broke was unreliable for most of it's life, we decided to try a different ... read more

Pros: It is very reliable and it works great. Definetly the way to go! Cons: None that I know of.
Summary: The Panasonic PV-9451 Hi-Fi VCR is wonderful. I have had mine for about a year now, and I love it. The quality of what it does is great. Whenever I record a show, the picture and sound qualities are perfect. We all have seen VCR's that produce really ... read more

Pros: Picture quality,sound quality,looks great, works great Cons: Remote isn't perfect, slow ff/rew

Pros: Panasonic reliability at an affordable price. Easy to use. Cons: Button cluttered remote
Summary: I first consulted Consumer Reports to get a review on the current features and quality in VCR's. The basic conclusion was a VCR is a VCR and shop by feature and reliability. Panasonic was noted as having the least amount of repairs. So I chose ... read more

Pros: Price, index system special bonus, LP RECORDING SPEED, auto clock set, dual AV jacks Cons: Quirky programing, no auto-head cleaning, remote requires effort to get used to, no cablebox control, newer vcrs available but probably not as cheaply
Summary: I purchased this vcr aproximately six and a half months ago, and it has taken quite a heavy beating in that amount of time.
So, I feel confident in making this statement about this particular model as well as some comments about different brands ... read more

Pros: Just read my review Cons: Ask me in ten years or so
Summary: First of all, this isn't about the Panasonic PV-9451. Like technologyrep before me, I couldn't find a listing for my PV-V4520, so just kind of snuk in here. Oh, well, I know no one is going to kill me, and y'all really gotta know about this ... read more

Pros: Clear sharp picture. Easy to configure Cons: Slow motion is too slow.
Summary: My family watches a lot of video tapes. You might be able to deduce that by seeing how many movies I've e-pinion'ed. We tend to go through VCR's about one a year, so I feel I have a pretty good idea what works and what doesn't, as far as hard use. The ... read more

Pros: quiet operation, smooth operation, average sound and audio Cons: none significant
Summary: Shopping for a VCR is a lot different than it was 3-7 years ago. In the early 90s, people weren't looking for much in a VCR. Basically, it was fine if it played tapes and came with remote control. Stereo TVs and VCRs were just coming onto the scene ... read more
