1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer beware! JVC dual decks have a long proven history of very poor build quality !!, January 20, 2008

I recommend buyers look at the Amazon reviews for defunct JVC VHS/DVD
dual deck products before they purchase any current dual deck model.
They have a proven history of extremely poor build quality. JVC keeps
rapidly changing model numbers, which makes this more difficult for
the consumer to discover. However they all look very similar with
only slight cosmetic differences.

Search on these item numbers and see for yourself:

1.0 out of 5 stars Factory Defect....Look Elsewhere, September 15, 2007

By

This review is from: JVC HRXVC15S DVD Video Player & VHS Hi-Fi Stereo (Electronics)

my JVC HRXVC15S arrived with a factory defect--a LOUD 60cycle hum via the VHS side. i called VANNS, the seller, and they said call JVC (never going to buy anything from VANNS again...), called JVC and described the problem, they asked a couple of questions that makes me believe that the problem is a known defect, tell me to ship it to them and, no, they don't pay the shpping. so.......never by another JVC product again....
so, i'll try and sell the thing as a DVD player (no hum from that side) for $25 and shop for another (non-JVC) unit.

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't get this if you need an S-Video output., August 26, 2007

I got this to transfer VHS to DVD. I was going to use S-Video output for the video portion. Despite the specs on this website indicating that there is one there is no such output jack. I'm thinking of returning it.
