Sylvania DVC860D DVD/VCR Combo

• 4-head hi-fi stereo VCR with front audio/video inputs for camcorder or gaming console
• Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel digital output (for use with a compatible surround receiver)
• DVD-Video, VHS tape, CD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 CD playback
• Quasi S-VHS playback, 19-micron heads for clear recording in EP mode, and self-cleaning tape heads
• Component-video, S-video, and composite-video outputs accommodate most TVs

With this machine you can't go wrong, 100 bucks get's you a VHS and DVD player and tons of other features. I personally love the MP3 playback on this system, no longer do I have to go to the trouble of connecting my laptop to my home entertainment center to play MP3's on surround sound.

Video playback and sound quality are just typical in comparison to other machines, it's nothing fancy nothing shabby. For 100 bucks though you can't ask for more.

This is a must for the movie and music lover on a budget!

Buy Sylvania DVC860D DVD/VCR Combo Now

Well this is something new for me -an electronics review -but I just had to put in my two cents on this product. I ordered this DVD/VCR combo for the family for Christmas after our ten-year old VCR finally bit the dust. After reading a few glowing reviews and spending less money for this unit than I did ten years ago for the old VCR, I felt like I made a great buy. But shortly after placing the order, the negative reviews started popping up for this item, and I got nervous that I once again I let the penny-pincher in me make an unwise buying decision. Well now the holidays are over, the unit is set up and running and ... (drumroll please) ... it's great! Granted I don't play DVDs like I do CDs, but I have experienced no problems whatsoever. The picture quality is first-rate. It plays Disney and various other movies without problems, though I haven't tried DVD-Rs. The VCR provides high quality images on playback of taped TV-shows, and on our worn-out old kids-videos. It even will timer record on the VCR while the DVD is playing -what a luxury! Sure it doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but at this price what do you expect! My old clunker VCR was cheap and it didn't have a lot of features either, and it outlasted my friends and families fancier units by years. Here's to the Sylvania following in its hallowed footsteps!

First off, I feel horrible even giving this piece-of-crap product 1 STAR...it deserves a ZERO!

My girlfriend and I received this DVD/VCR player for Christmas this past year. We went out and bought all of our favorite DVD's because we were so excited to finally have a DVD player.

Little did we know that the thing would only work for a month or so before making a slow, painful death. Last evening alone, we spent 1.5 hrs just trying to get the stupid thing to read a DVD, which by the way, was BRAND SPANKING NEW! It makes the most god-awful sounds you've ever heard in your life and if you are lucky enough to have it identify your DVD, don't get too excited because I GUARANTEE it will stop in the middle of the movie and start over!

Buyer beware! Even if you see this thing on sale for $5.00, think again and spend wisely. You'd be better off buying a BIG MAC or a WHOPPER than putting countless hours of misery and frustration into this ridiculous, foreign-made, over-priced JUNK MACHINE!

Sylvania has definitely taught me one thing...to stay the heck away from their cheap line of products! I'm not worried as there are other electronic consumer companies who will actually treat me with respect and provide me with a reliable, worthy product. ADIOS, Sylvania!

Want Sylvania DVC860D DVD/VCR Combo Discount?

I also bought the Sylvania DVC860D DVD & VCR combo as a replacement for a cheap "Monkey Wards" VCR I bought 8yrs. ago for a much greater price than this unit. What a great Christmas buy at $99.99! It works great in re-running VHS Tapes out of my library and has played all the DVD's I have burnt with my new Plextor 708A DVD Burner.Also, this unit even hooked up to my 14yr. old TV using RF cables: how about that! This product does it all that they say it will, and is a fantastic bargain. I truly recommend this product to all. Remember, just because it cost more doesn't mean its better!!

I got this for my 3 year old for Christmas mainly because I was tired of hearing all of his Disney vidoes a million times a day. Things went great for 3 months. Then the stupid thing ate Dumbo. Image a little 3 year old crying because 1. Dumbo (his favorite because we sing the songs together) is now all gone and 2. he can't watch ANY of his tapes in his room now. I really wish that I read the other reviews before getting excited about this purchase and disappointing my son. DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT! I would've been better off acting out the videos myself.
