4 stars Too Expensive 2010-08-25

Reviewer: Rudolf Hoogenboom

Several months ago, I bought the same exact player on Amazon, brand new, for $139.99. Why is it suddenly $449?

As far as playing it is fine, even though I had to clean the heads after playing the VHS for only a few hours.

5 stars Old meets new 2010-07-11

Reviewer: V. Ives

We bought this combo dvd/vhs blu-ray because we still have some old VHS tapes we didn't want to get rid of. It works great, is easy to use, and was a great price. We have a Panasonic TV also so the 2 pieces recognize each other which makes it even nicer.

3 stars Early failure 2010-07-08

Reviewer: Allan Lindsay

Older model, worked fairly well, however DVD mode failed within 90 days. Has to be sent to Texas for repair or replacement. Viera Cast will not access Netflix or Hulu. No firmware upgrade planned to correct per Panasonic press releases. Player remote does not control Panasonic HD TV well and visa versa , requiring you to keep both remotes handy.

2 stars Please reconsider!!! 2010-07-07

Reviewer: Aelyweeks

VHS worked great at first, but after a month or so, the tracking started to give out. It takes about 10 minutes of adjusting to get the tracking to work. DVD/Blu-ray player is very limited to store bought DVDs and Blu-ray discs. I could not play home recordings on there...I would not recommend this product.

5 stars Great value in a convenient package! 2010-07-07

Reviewer: Frank Acosta

This Panasonic combo unit (Bluray + VHS) simplified my life. It allows me to play my old VHS tapes as well as my DVDs (upscaled) and my newest Bluray discs at 1080p through an HDMI connection. As an added bonus, it plays photos loaded onto an SD card on my flat screen TV. At the price I paid, this was a steal. Thanks Amazon and Panasonic. (I also bought one for my sister!)
