Video tapes from Maxell's product line are among the best consumer grade VHS tapes available to the public and the preferred choice among video archivers. When used in conjunction with a high-end VCR, Maxell Gold provides an excellent picture, even when used in the extended play / super long play speed and is incredibly durable. I have never experienced color bleeding or noise problems, even after years of storage. This is an excellent tape for a reasonable price and one of the best choices for archiving your most precious memories.

I ordered three 3=packs of the Maxell VHS HGX T-120, as pictured even now, and got three 3-packs of a different Maxell VHS product.

Now that I've found out on my own that the original item is no longer produced as such, it would have been appropriate to inform me of that fact...I could have purchased them locally and saved a rather hefty $11.95 shipping & handling.

I was assured an "RA" for return, but have never seen it.

At this point I will keep the items...someone should update the pictorial advertising to avoid this minor confusion and disappointment. - M.

Picture was jumpy and headache inducing. It could not be stabilized with the tracking and was completly unwatchable.

Two of the three tapes I recently purchased have tracking problems that I do not have on any other tapes, many of which are quite old. Not recommended.

Blank VCR tapes are becoming hard to find in stores. I wonder if they will go the way of Kodachrome. The tapes I ordered were exactly what I needed and arrived only a few days after I ordered them.

I would like to say that this item rates very high in quality, price and durability. I would defintly buy this product again.

Even though these Maxell tapes are labeled "high grade", two of the six purchased would not record. Never had this happen before; I won't buy them again.

Mawell video tapes will come in handy if I need to tape something
since I don't tape on DVD's.
