Hi-Fi VCR w/ 2 A/V Inputs
Pros
Fast Rewind and FF, Hi-Fi Sound, Features
Cons
Rewind Motor, very loud
Recommended it?
Yes
The Bottom Line:
For durability even with the noisy motor, I would recommend this model to anyone who needs a VCR.
So far it offers great Hi-Fi Sound and the price was a steal at $59. I just walked into the store and picked up the box paid for it and I was gone!
Panasonic VCRs are so reliable it isn't a joke, I have owned so my VCRs since 1982 and I have always stick with the major brand. I still have a portable Panasonic that uses AC/DC and attaching Panasonic Video Camera 20 Lux to it. That VCR cost me $1,000 and it was made back in 1985, 4 head Stereo and it still works wow!
Now I have one more to add to the pile the PV-V4521 which will be my last one in VCRs 1982 - 2002 20 years, next a Panasonic DVD-R and that's other review.

Overhaul the sound is excellent when you connect it to a A/V Stereo Receiver.
I like the 2 A/V Inputs one in the front and one in the rear, makes life in the VCR world much easier.
Reliability I have to see with this noisy motor (what happen to the quiet motor)
Its offers quick rewind and FF, but it's still noisy you can here the motor go!
Author Note:
Soon after I had purchased this model, Panasonic had released PV V4522 a newer one with a new front panel look and auto everything just turn it on it and your setup.
