Samsung DVD-V2500 VCR/DVD Combo
Excellent value
I bought this model about a year ago, and while pleased with the unit, I didn't consider it a huge bargain at the time. But, now that it can be had for almost $$$ less than when I purchased it, I highly recommend it as an extrememly excellent value. (I am a little miffed that I paid so much back then, though. Such is life.)<BR>The DVD section is excellent. It has played anything I've shoved into it, including Asian VCD's.<BR>The VCR section has good picture and sound, nothing spectacular compared to DVD, of course. It has a very fast rewind.<BR>The Memory Stick function works a little slowly. But, hey! It HAS a memory stick function! Where else will you find DVD, VCR, and Memory Stick in the same unit for this price?<BR>Other pluses include quiet operation. (I don't hear the noises other reviewers have complained about.) And, an RF output for DVD. <BR>The only minuses I've noticed is that DVD menu choices and the Memory Stck playback menu both seem to respond slowly to commands, and the remote control is a little \\"busy\\" with a ton of buttons, some quite small.
