This Sony is a replacement VCR for us. We have lots of old VHS tapes that we enjoy watching with our grandchildren. New VCRs are quite expensive and we were relieved to find such a nice replacement. The Sony was easy to set up, just plug-in and play. It is easy to operate and picture quality is very good.

perhaps we should have expected less, this replaced another sony vcr, but the picture quality is much more grainy than the one it replaced. Possibly head cleaning will help.

I still use VHS and VCR to tape my shows. As long as I get the basic TV channels feed directly from the cable line to the VCR, I am happy to use them. I hate ads and been taping my shows for years and view them at a later date is something I do. With almost all VHS gone or in Combo DVD/VHS only to be found in stores. Companies are making the VHS format gone. I seen one Phillips model without a tuner (this is a dud where you could one direct record through a cable box and one channel only. I have this Sony SLV-N750 VHS machine already and another older Sony VHS that I just got repair after 15 years of used. It good to have a repair shop that still repairing the old machines Staton TV In Westcheste County NY does a great job. I ran through alot of VCR machines in my days and had set of if 8 running sometimes. I have found the Sony machines standing up to wear and tore of constant used. This machine is idea and I just purchased another same machin on eBay. With my three Sony VCR. I be recording till the cable company yanks all the channels off the VCR and need a cable box to record your shows. Don't overlook old models of Sony VCR like this one. That why I will get one more for backup and keeping my eye out for them. Especially this model.Read full review
I bought this VCR with full knowledge that it was broken. I bought it because I have accumulated over 1000 videos over the years and want a quality VCR to see them. I intentionally bought an older Sony because it has the highest quality and best features. This one is broken, but that's OK - I will have a better VCR than is available from retailers when I get it back from the repair shop. With the older VCR's you can record in LP mode - not so with the new ones - I want to continue to record in LP mode because that way I can record about 2 movies per tape and still have a fairly good picture. I have DVD's too - but I don't like them - one scratch and you can toss the whole DVD. With the old tapes, you just cut, splice or move beyond the damage. Also, a DVD can only hold 1 movie - if that!!! I am not impressed with modern technology - I will stay with the old stuff as long as I can. - JABRead full review
The VCR works properly in the resolution it was designed for. Even though it is new, it has not been activated since it was packaged originally. So, the mechanisms were a little slow to completely engage. The tape transport would not completely load the tape and needed a little manual assistance. But, once I assisted it, it loaded correctly and played the tape correctly with good picture and sound. I will be using this a lot in the near future. If it continues to perform as it has been, I will be completely satisfied.

Been looking for quite a while, when I saw this brand new in the bow at a good price I snagged it. Has all the features I need and works great. I have several Sony products and they seam to last longer then others.

Very happy with the VCR. Mad at myself for not looking at the shipping but it's completely legit. I just didn't look at it. I'm transferring old home videos and it's working perfectly..

Too bad new ones are not being made anymore. Lots of my older friends have VHS tape libraries. This machine was well built and still performs well. Love it.

Works just fine for viewing movies. Not the best output signal for converting to digital.

The VCR that I bought works just fine.It was used but it works just like new. And it also looks like new. I bought this product because I needed to make recordings from my security camera. I like everything about it. No dislikes. The product is right in line with any other top brand. I love it.
