4 heads, stereo input and output, easy to set up and use. I have them fed into my surround sound system, and it is excellent to watch movies with. I highly recommend this vcr for a low cost good output, and reliable way to play your old videos. I own two of the Sanyo versions of these VCR's. Check these out, good buy. I have had one of these VCR's for 2 1/2 years now, and one for just over one year. They were manufactured as the SANYO vwm-950, and the Sylvania 6260vd. Both are working well, play great, with good picture and sound.
But, as an extra player, this one was affordable and does its job well for me. I have had my VCR a little while now, and I have had no problems. I wanted it because it offered Hi-fi output (my old one was mono). Mine works well now, no complaints here for the price.
I got worried when I saw this because omaha has a channel 3 that interferes with picture. turn the TV to channel 4, insert a tape and press play, and continue to hold play for about 10 seconds, and the VCR will automatically switch output to channel 4. There is a trick in the instruction book. Note: default is channel 3 output, this model does not have a channel 3 to 4 switch.
So far, I am happy with the performance, and have watched a few movies, even recorded a show. Agree, VCR not for Heavy duty use, but good add in if you have mostly DVD's and need a VCR to play a few old VHS tapes. I bought mine on Clearance at Target as an additional VCR for my guest room. Their are more solid VCRs like the sony or toshibas available for anywhere from 15-20 dollars more.
I have a one year old Sony VCR and a 11 year old Panasonic VCR, heavy solid bricks that they are. This VCR is very similar to the Mono 4 head VCR by emerson sold at Wal-martcurrently, and this model is exactlty the same as the VWM-950 Sanyo sold at wal-mart briefly. Yes, it is not a top of the line VCR, it feels cheaper and the remote feels the same way.
Do not buy this item for any purpose. I purchased this VCR to watch old movies. It worked fine for couple of months, but then I stared having problems and they haven't stopped.
Both had problems.different problems I ordered this product twice and returned it twice.
I've had mine a few months now and it works great for me - No problems playing my old tapes and good recording in stereo for my surround system - Good Deal
