I will be brief. The recorder is almost the only one who is still in the German market and to it is also very inexpensive.
However, every euro would have been much more.
Have set up your machine with an older woman, today I am ashamed. Wanted to present the equipment and explain the operation in more detail. So what do you do first? Yes, a cartridge to clean first and I've already got a red head. When loading the lift ratschte quite horribly, then have made further attempts to load very slowly and I am even able to load a cartridge without ratcheting. Then we came to the same image. Well, for a VCR this price range makes the image really a decent impression, however, can hardly consolation for the poor mechanics, it remains a Billigstgerät, I can not recommend the recorder, but there is hardly an alternative.
