This is the first time I have ever bought a bad product from Amazon. I bought this rewinder being that the other rewinders on Amazon had so-so reviews. I also assumed I was getting a better product being it was price at $40.00 while the other ranged from $10-$20. Big mistake. The first one I bought, the start button would almost never stay depressed when rewinding or forwarding and it ate my tape. Luckily I used a blank tape to test. I had it exchanged for another. The start button on this one wouldn't stay depressed at all and it still ate my tape. I just returned both and I'm getting a refund.

They must not of fed this thing very good down on the farm. Keeps wanting to eat my tapes. Tried a couple worthless Mini DV tapes, and it ate them both. WORTHLESS

This worked perfectly for about 8 rewinds. But once it eats one of your precious tapes you'll probably be as dissapointed as I was. Buyer beware... these rewinders are mostly the same look; but marketed by different companies. They all eat tape.

i just tested one by one. they don`t work properly.
I have not read until now different reviews from other customers. my rate is (0)but i gave it(1) because i was not able to find it
i am very dissapointed with these rewinders

don`t waste your money
i tell you one more time

Definitely do not use this product! It smells toxic and will eat your tape! These cheap products from China should not be allowed to be sold. I highly suggest Amazon discontinue this product!

I also purchased this item. Amazon is not the direct seller as far as I know. The item came in brand new. I opened it. and there it was something inside that seemed loose....or broken..like a piece of plastic trapped inside...I opened it and in fact that was it...a small piece of black plastic, I dunno where it was originally in...Took it out and reassembled the unit...Then as the other reviewer did I placed a used worthless tape in...and YES...the tape was rewound but ended up being eaten too....the tape was caught in the middle of the thing.....tried again, and again til I figured out how to avoid that to happen...yes, you need to hold down with ur hand the cover so it rolls smoothly....But again...hat you expect from a cheap product?...

It just works. For those who cannot make [START] button locked, please hold the cover down a little bit while pushing the [START] button.

I cannot believe this Chinese company is actually producing and selling this product that DOES NOT WORK.
I did read the bad reviews before purchasing this item, but i thought those people just happen to get a
bad unit, so i took my chances. It is true, this is junk. You would expect to get something for $23 dollars
this device is worth $0, why??? because it does not work, it wasn't made right!! So stop selling it.
when i installed the cassette, i did have to push down on the door in order for it to rewind or FF.
then when it finished, the tape would not come out, it got stuck in the plastic housing, i literally
had to break the tape to get it out. i could not believe it. Amazon does not sell this item so i had to contact
the third party seller to ask them for the refund. If you want to waste your time and money, go ahead and get one of this.

I purchased one of these and as soon as I started using it I realized that I had to keep my finger on the rewind button till it was done after 2 or 3 tapes stated to chew the tape , a true piece of junk

I was a bit disappointed in this item. The rewind button will not stay locked when rewinding. You have to hold it in place in order to rewind it. Cheaply made. :(
