RCA VR557 4-Head VCR
A VCR that Shines
This is one quality VCR for the price.  I've owned more expensive VCR's, but this gem delivers a picture quality so clear and crisp its breathtaking.  The unit seems sturdy and well-built, and is easy to use.  I had some reservations about the silverish-goldish color based on the photo here, but it looks much better in the flesh.  You'd be hard pressed to find a better value in this price class.
