Toshiba SD-V280 DVD-VCR Combo, Silver
Have LIMITED VHS Capabilities
This unit is very light weight considering the fact that it has additional hardware to accomodate the DVD electronics.<br />There's no vent/exhause holes for dust or insects to get in. This means that there's probably little to no electronic problems in the future.<br />The remote and on-screen feature takes a little time to get used to, as most new things do. I found them to be self-explanatory.<br />DVD play is comparable to most DVD players with all the extra DVD features accessible through this player.<br />VHS playback is also generic in quality. But VHS recording comes a little short. It only have SLP & SP recording which means that if you want to dub over a family video or a movie that's more than 2 hours long your going to have trouble. It does NOT have EP or even LP recording which is capable of recording 4+ hours. I found that a little surprising when I tried to record over a family home video ... good thing I have a Sony VHS as my back up.<br />In general, this VHS/DVD combo is a great addition if you a first time DVD-player owner. Otherwise if are into recording VHS over 4+ this is NOT the combo you need.
