Sony SLV-D100 DVD-VCR Combo
VCR broke after a few months
I love the convenience of a combo unit, and I've had no problems with the DVD player. After just a few months, however, the VCR portion of the unit broke down. I play many more DVD's than tapes so this is pretty alarming.  The picture looks exactly like what you get when you have dirty heads, so I used the same cleaning method that I use for the other VCR units that I use, (in the kids rooms).  I have one of those tapes that you insert and play after putting a few drops of cleaner in it.  Well, that didn't fix the problem, (how could the heads really be dirty after a few months of very light use anyway?).  Be forewarned about this unit.  I bought it since it had good features and didn't have the cheap &quot;feel&quot; of the lower priced units available in the market.  My mistake.  I'm ditching the thing, (will probably hook it up with my kids TV/VCR combo so that he can watch DVD's too), and going with a better brand.
