Product Description
Amazon.com Review
With an incredibly sharp picture, the budget-priced Sharp VCA582U lives up to its name. Despite the low price, this unit is a standout with several advanced features. For example, its shuttle dial allows you to manually advance forward and backward through a video--just like pro video editors--without the jerkiness of pushing a Stop, Fast-Forward, or Rewind button.
While the remote control is billed as being universally compatible with multiple units, we had trouble getting it to recognize our TV set. However, programming on the unit itself via its Menu, Set, and arrow buttons was a breeze. The VCA582U contains an on-screen option for programming in English, Spanish, or French using a fairly standard VCR blue-screen setup with basic text.
To test the playback performance of this VCR, we played both an old and new videotape. A much-loved, prerecorded movie handled beautifully, while a movie that had been played only once glided right through the unit. Our tests also proved video and audio quality on the VCA582U to be excellent.
For the environmentally conscious, this unit boasts the EnergyStar logo, ensuring that it meets the Environmental Protection Agency's standards. EnergyStar appliances use less energy than non-compliant devices, saving you money on your electric bill.
Overall, this is a basic machine for those who like to take a "hands-on" approach to their VCRs. We were most impressed by the crystalline picture and the smooth control offered by the shuttle dial.
Pros:
- Easy forward and rewind via shuttle dial
- Budget price
- High-quality performance
Cons:
- Universal remote may not recognize all TV sets
