Toshiba W727 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR
Very Good VCR......Just Not Perfect!!
I am very dedicated to Toshiba. I own a 32\\" Television, DVD and VCR from Toshiba and I am very happy with all of them. I replaced an older Toshiba VCR with this one and it is a very good VCR. Postives include: VCR Plus(makes programming a snap), Very Quick Rewind, Auto Clock Set and Channel Programming,Front A/V inputs for your camcorder make transferring to VHS tape very easy, Excellent Picture and Sound. The negatives(which are minor) include: Commercial Skip is poor - you have to press the button 1 time for every 30 seconds you want to fast forward, up to 6 times for a 3 minute max. It's easier to just press fast forward and then play when the commercial is over. The remote is full and the buttons are small. The wheel on the remote is for fast forward or rewind in small increments or used for frame by frame in the pause mode. Personally I will never use this funtion. On the VCR itself there are no forward or rewind buttons you have to turn the knob on the right. As for others who say the instructions are hard to understand, I didn't find that at all.
