Not as User-Friendly as my last VCR was!

Pros The commercial skip allows you to "skip ahead" 30 seconds at a time.
Cons Not user-friendly.
Recommended it? No

What prompted me to buy this SONY VCR when I was so fond of the Panasonic I owned that had recently died? Well, the $99 sale at Wal-Mart had, and a husband who said, ?Oh no, get the Sony? when I called him from my cell phone? The reason I didn?t fight him on it (because I DO have my own opinions...

Maximum Bang for the Bucks!

Pros Good quality, low price
Cons lacks S-Video
Recommended it? Yes

I needed a moderately priced stereo VCR to replace an old mono unit. I really wanted front input jacks because I often dub from camcorders and because it would simplify using a Playstation for my kid. I wanted good quality, but since I have DVD I wasn't going to pay for ultimate fidelity in a VCR... Read full review »

An inexpensive HiFi VCR

Pros Inexpensive, hi-fi stereo, useful features like commercial skip
Cons Found auto-tracking to be dubious
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this VCR recently at Target, because it was $99 which seemed like a great deal on a Sony VCR, because Sonys are usually pretty good and more expensive than other brands. I am pretty pleased.

This VCR is HiFi Stereo which is a step-up from my mono VCR. Plugged into my stereo... Read full review »

Don't Copy That Tape

Pros Low cost, Front Inputs
Cons Copy Protection
Recommended it? Yes

I planned on moving my old Sharp hi-fi VCR to the bedroom, and I decided to go on the cheap side and spend less than $100 for a new VCR replacement for the family room. I didn't audition this VCR before buying it, rather I bought it knowing I could return it within 30 days if I didn't like it. I... Read full review »

Another Winner From Sony

byvswolf Mar 7, 2001

Pros Front RCA jacks, good picture and sound quality, easy to use
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I try to buy all of my electronics from Sony, because generally they're of excellent quality. The Sony SLV-N50 doesn't disappoint in regards to that. We also have a Sony DVD player, so we didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on a VCR, but we still wanted a decent player for our VHS tapes.

A Steal for $99

Pros Inexpensive
Cons No TV/VCR ot SP/EP indicator on unit
Recommended it? Yes

After my Mitsubishi HSU-53 went to VCR heaven, I needed to get a 2nd Hi FI Vcr to dub tapes from my still alive Mitsubishi HSU-650. I chose the Sony because of the brand name and the $99 Price. I had purchased a Hi-Fi VCR from Philips which was horrible.

This Sony is a great VCR,... Read full review »

Pros Cheap, Full of USEFUL functions, Good quality
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this VCR yesterday, it was the cheapest Sony they had available. I only want a cheap VCR - why bother buying an $800 VCR when it still plays the same quality VHS tapes and will never match the quality of a DVD player?

The VCR hooked up very easily - I used the three RCA... Read full review »

I bought the N50 back in October, 2000. Since then, the machine has been used daily for a three hours. This machine replaced a 1988 Sharp VC-M701U - which had its transport tantrums with a tape inside. I had looked around various shops for a deck before settling on the N50; we looked at a high-end...
