Sylvania DVC860D DVD/VCR Combo Reviews
More Picture
Definately a good buy if you're looking for an easy to use, inexpensive unit. Its nice having both the dvd and vhs player in the same deck, its convenient and saves space. I previously owned a more expensive panasonic unit and the picture quality in this dual deck is actually better. Not too expensive, all the features i was looking for. Good buy.

Ok for the price. - Andrew - Quebec
The good:br /Cheap. Lots of inputs outputs. Good looks. Dolphin Screensaver.br /br /The bad: confusing remote. Hard to program. br /br /This is decent for the price I paid. Mine stopped loading disks properly after 3 years of heavy use and a move and is now on its way to the electronics recycler. I think I only paid like for it way back when, so this is neither surprising nor really disappointing either.
Still kickin after a few years - Two Mom Family - Chicago, Il
Good buy for money. A little bulky but overall good product. It's not progressive scan (for you flat panel owners)so look elsewhere.
