It's still "working" after 2 years but... October 29, 2006
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this 2 years ago as I needed a replacement for my 10 year old Mitsubishi VCR that decided it was no longer going to work. I had the money and since the VCR/DVD combo was only 100 dollars I thought the idea of a combo would be neat. I really didnt need a dvd player as my PS2 as well as my computer did DVD's. I could also just hook my computer up to the VCR using the S-video plug on the back of the Video card but thats all beside the point. Anyway, I bought this because I needed something new and since it was cheap I thought it was a good deal. I was wrong. It lasted me for about 2 years without a problem. If you can believe it when one thing acts up another has to act up with it. What I mean is the first problem I noticed is how when I would eject tapes it wouldnt eject properly. It would still slightly hold on to the tape reel and if you didn't notice and pulled it out without caution the tape would get damaged. Not a huge huge problem because that is fixable. What really bugs me is how the DVD player had to act up as well. Any DVD that I put in my DVD player, at random times while watching, will freeze up and you will see the numbers on the display jump around. After about a min of freezing it will begin playing again 20 seconds ahead of where it last was. The DVD player will continue to this throughout the DVD at random times. It's pretty annoying. Other than that I have yet to notice anything new. The VCR is only a minor problem but the DVD player is a big problem as I do not know how to fix that. I have a feeling the DVD player broke because of how hot that thing got when disks were in there. It would just spin so fast and get so hot even when nothing was playing and the disk was just sitting in there. Well, at least it gave me two years of use and the VCR still records fine which is all I really need it for. The DVD player issue is just annoying. If I were you I would steer clear of anything cheap like this and go for a much more trusted brand such as Panasonic, Mitsubishi, or Sony. They just have a much longer lifespan and are a much better investment.
Big disappointment December 12, 2005

I got this unit at Target after my old DVD player conked out. I was just looking for a replacement DVD player, and then this unit caught my eye. My VCR was also getting old, and I thought it would be a good idea to replace both in one shot. After all, it would be cheaper than getting seperate units, and there would be way less wiring involved, one less remote, etc.
Well, the VCR worked great, and I was pleasantly surprised at the sound quality (I have a pretty good sound system). However, the DVD section had a distinct high pitched whining noise that came through my speakers, like a motor running, which was noticeable even at moderate volume levels when playing DVD's. No good! I picked up a good DVD player and set the Daewoo aside. I never got around to returning it, and ended up giving it to a friend who needed a VCR and only played DVD's through her TV set's small speakers. Everybody is happy now, right? Wrong! One week later, DVD's started to freeze, at first for a split second, then longer and longer until they are now unwatchable. What a dud this thing is!

I purchased this vcr/dvd 6 months ago and the vcr no longer works. Any button I push on the console or the remote activates rewind. There are no service centers in Washington State - although it is sold by Costco. Labor is not covered after 3 months. I certainly would not recommend the product - but even more than that, I would not recommend the company. They do not stand behind their products.

I had previously sold my old Zenith Allegro VCR for $30 because it was time for an upgrade- the ol' Allegro had mono audio!! So I got this at Target on Clearance for $72. I hooked it up to component video (which I recommend for any television that will accept the red, green, and blue rca cables for video; best picture possible!) and the DVD looked pretty good, not as good as my Panasonic DVD player bought in fall 2001 which is still running perfectly! But as I was watching Season One of Scrubs, I rewind it quite frequently because Dr. Cox and the Janitor are freakin hilarious, the DVD starts freezing and then going to a spot a minute later, freezing, then going to a spot a minute later, etc. Not cool, breeze. I also noticed the audio is a 1/4 to 1/2 second late when playing DVD, also not cool. VCR works phenomenally, recorded my favorite shows without a problem. Easy menu and timer program setup with a bright colorful picture. The remote gets a little tricky in the dark while watching a movie- small buttons. If it was just a VCR which I was looking for first priority, I'd go ahead and praise this Daewoo puppy with the big 5 stars. But the DVD portion just wasn't up to my Panasonic expectations. It went back to Target and now i have a Panasonic V4523S VCR which impresses me yet again. I love you guys, Panasonic.
Over Priced VCR. September 17, 2005
I bought this back in FEB (7 months ago) and liked it since it was a spacesaver/combo. I mostly used it for the DVD player since I have been burning my own, but do believe that it is a good VCR also. It has worked great until recently when it started having a problem reading the DVDs. It starts reading a DVD normally but within a minute starts to hesitate and after about another minute 'jumps' to a new area a minute or so further into the DVD. I can rewind back to almost the point where it jumped, to see what was missed but this happens somewhat frequently and is not a solution. I cleaned the DVD player but this didn't change anything. I haven't had much cooperation from Daewoo support either... even though I only had 3 months labor on the combo there is a 1 year warrentee on parts, and after speaking to someone about this I understand that Daewoo will replace the unit if they can't fix it. Only problem is I have been unable to speak with a tech except for the 1st call - I've called back 3 times to the support center and they say someone will call me within 48 hours... but don't. Good luck.
