Panasonic PV-V4620 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR
A total dud
This VCR is probably a good one if you actually get one that works.  The first time I used this VCR the audio track had a loud vibrating noise on it.  I asked Panasonic if they could just ship me a new unit, since this one seemed to be a lemon, and they told me I had to have it repaired.  So I did, and after waiting two weeks I got it back and the problem seemed to be solved.   I've used it exactly three times since then and on the second time it started making the humming noise again, unfortunatly the labor warranty had run out by this time and they wanted to charge me $75 to fix a problem they already were supposed to have fixed.  I guess I should have used it more often and I would have discovered the flaw sooner, but since we bought a DVD player we just don't use the VCR that often.   I think Pansonic should stand behind their product, nevertheless.  It's a bad sign when the unit doesn't work right out of the box, they should've just given me a replacement since they sold me a faulty product.  I'll never buy a Pansonic VCR again.
