GoVideo DDV9556 Dual Deck Hi-Fi VCR
I could have done worse
This really isn't the worst product I've ever gotten, but it has it's annoyances.  My primary VCR tapes in LP, which I use frequently.  However, trying to dub a tape in LP is horrible.  If you put it in SP, it has this horrid red tint across the entire picture.  If you put it in SLP (like the manuel suggests), it's almost unwatchable.  And it also does not do well with SLP programs that either came from another VCR or are rather old.  SP to SP is perfect though.   I've also cut the ends of programs I'm dubbing off after pausing the tape to edit out commercials because the tape goes back 3-5 seconds.  But it has come in quite handy and is easier than trying to hook up two VCRs together.
