Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Sylvania SSC092 9-inch TV/VCR combo is a great addition to your kitchen, dorm room, or even your camper or car. The 9-inch color CRT has a 181-channel autoset tuner that receives standard VHF and UHF broadcast channels and up to 113 cable channels. The included car DC adapter cord gives you power for on-the-go viewing and its small size means it'll be a perfect fit anywhere you don't have room for a full-size VCR and TV.

The VCR component is compatible with VHS tapes, and it has a built-in detail enhancer that is used to boost the recorded signal and provide maximum picture quality during playback. In addition to the 32-key remote, you can control the VCR play, record, reverse, and forward functions from the front of the unit.

The built-in timer allows you to record up to 8 programs at different times on different channels up to 1 year in advance. Or, just hit the handy, one-touch timer to immediately start recording.

An RF antenna input allows for quick connection to cable or antenna and a set of line-in audio (mono) and video connectors are available for easy hookup of a camcorder or game console. Two headphone jacks are also on the front of the unit.

What's in the Box
TV/VCR combo, remote control, 2 AA batteries, antenna, and operating instructions.

I received this TV/VCR combo as a gift right before our family trip that included a long car ride. I set it up and we watched some new videos for 4 days before it broke (sound but no picture). Amazon was great, they shipped out another one in 2 days, even before we returned the defect, and we got motoring. The brand new replacement broke 4 hours into our ride, same exact problem. There won't be a third try--this item's a LEMON! I would not recommend it at any price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Quality , Low Price, but one Minor Annoyance, August 21, 2004

This review is from: Sylvania SSC092 9-Inch Portable TV/VCR Combo (Electronics)

Just bought this and have used it about a week now. Works well with decent sound and picture quality both in the house and inside the van. One minor annoyance is we keep getting prompted to reset programmed channels. We have to turn power off and back on a second time to start watching tapes. Looks like programmed channels are lost every time you unplug the box or shut off the power supply. Stupid design for something that is specifically intended for portable use. Overall, though, I'm still satisfied since price was a good deal at $94. With VCR's getting hard to find and a large tape collection, I'd say this is a good deal to get us by until DVD recorders and LCD screens become more practical and affordable.

I couldn't have asked for a better product. The reception is wonderful and lives up to more than I expected from an AC/DC portable TV. We purchased it after all of the power outages with Hurricanes Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne in Florida. The product is so great, we've made room for it in the kitchen on a permanent basis. It deserves all of 5 stars!!!!
