Samsung DVD-V2000 DVD-VCR Combo
Well, the VCR is noisy but . . .
After reading all the complaints of this being a noisy unit, I did get gun shy but ultimately decided that I trusted Consumer Reports more than the customer editorials.  Both are right.  I found the unit easy to use and the remote self-explanatory.  It's basically a plug and play unit.  I've had the unit for about a month now and have watched 20 some DVD's with no noise problems.  I watched my first VCR tape tonight and though I didn't notice any noise at the beginning, there was a noticeable whine after an hour of play; distracting when you're getting to the end of a serious drama.  Rewind is fast and does overshoot.  I'd recommend the unit mainly because of its ease of use and space saving feature but don't be surprised if you hear an audible whine when there is a quiet scene in the movie (VCR).
