Toshiba W512 Hi-Fi VCR
Nice VCR for the price
This is a nice VCR.  The video quality of pre-recorded movies is good, and the record quality is nearly as good as playback quality.  The on-screen menus are a nice feature, as is the automatic time and channel setup.  But the best feature of the VCR is easily the rewind/fast-forward speed.  It rewinds a two-hour movie in about a minute.  I was amazed the first time I rewinded a tape.  <br />But there are two problems I have with this VCR (which keep it from 5 stars).  First, the VCR counter is defaulted to be on-screen.  This is very inconvenient, as you have to turn it off every time you put in a tape.  And secondly, the remote isn't so great.  For some reason it's fat in the middle, making it awkard to hold.  Also, the remote is not lighted.  <br />But aside from these minor inconveniences, this is still a good VCR in this price-level.
