TOSHIBAW522 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR

Like the good sound and the ability to hook up other products. Problem with using phono inputs, hooked up my new phono in the phono inputs and all I got was a hum no other sound. Will try to use one of the other inputs later to see if they will work. No big problem as the phono has built in speakers.

Product was as described. Ad claimed it was checked, clean and greased. Unit did not work on arrival. Item was returned.

Well my old Toshiba ate a tape and its tracking was beyond repair so it was time to replace it. I love Toshiba for their customer support they've given me in the past regarding lost remotes, tech advice, and repair. This VCR felt very light compared to my old Toshiba, however it played back tapes both commercial and self-recorded flawlessly. This unit is also pretty silent to my standards. There is no squeek in the playback nor in the rewind or fastforward modes which seemed to happen a lot with my old Toshiba. The super fast rewind is true to the advertisement, and I clocked a 4 hour tape completely at the end of the tape, back to the beginning at 56 seconds. WOW!The setup was so completely painless on this system I'd think a 5 year old could integrate this.My only problem with this deck is that the display only shows hours and minutes, not seconds. So sometimes when you're recording something, you dont know that you are until you see the minute change over. Took a little getting used to.All in all this is a great VCR at a great price

We had a lot of problems with this machine. Only needed it for a short time to view a dozen VHS tapes. We viewed them and ending up giving the VCR to the Good Will. The seller was kind enough to issue me a refund, which I thought was pretty classy on his part. I would purchase from this seller again!

I was pleasantly surprised on how this VCR looked and played. It was like new. No visible wear and tear at all and with the original remote too. They even packed RCA cables with it. I’m very happy with it.
