Emerson EWV404 4-Head Video Cassette Recorder with On-Screen Programming Display

i brought this vcr 1st one worked for about 2 weeks and was eating my tapes sent it back and got another one and the clock did not work sent it back again and the vcr would not tape for more then 5 minutes so i call discount jungle and they said they were sorry and gave me a full refund

Bought this at our local Walmart store. Worked for a couple weeks, and then started eating tapes. Now, it won't record or playback any tapes at all. Hardly had any use before it went bad. Don't even bother thinking about buying one, even at this price. Find a Mitsubishi HS-U449 or HS-U448, as those are very well built, a late model, and works perfect. Check the big auction site, if you need one.

Its hard to find a VCR these days and this is the best deal I could find and it works really well. My only complaint is that it is very light, so light that the cord weighs more than it does so it pulls it back sometimes but its works fantastic.

I have to agree with the one reviewer who wrote in about having so many vhs and trying to convert them over to dvd's or just buying them to replace them, this is a bunch of hog wash. I don't need a combo to just play the vcr tapes.I hooked it up like your suppose to, and no problems. It's light, and easy to operate. It's a very good buy. I just recent took it out of hostage(had put it up thinking that I would not be able to buy another vcr machine,) but I see my friends at Amazon is making that a dream come true. If you just want to just sit down one evening/weekend and just look at some of your oldies but goodies on tape, this machine will do just that. It works fine with the New tv's as well. Of course you won't be able to do any recording on it after they switch to digital, but if you have cable or satellite your ok. Good bargain.

I purchased this item. It wouldn't accept a tape. I sent it back. The second unit wouldn't time record. These units are factory rejects, not refurbished units. Steer clear.

The girl told me a lie when she said UPS had been called and was to pick up the unit that day. UPS never showed. Her supervisor said if we would give Discount Jungle a good rating, they would credit our account. That's coertion. I'd rather eat the unit than give a good rating to a company that doesn't deserve it.

Amazon should do away with this company.
