Everything is fine as long as you put no video cassette in your video recorder. When it finally does nevertheless, the device comes only really gaining momentum and is an operating noise, which could best be compared with the roar of a tractor. Only after the ejection of the tape the rattle subsided again. The picture quality may well be OK, but listening is as impossible to. One gets the impression that the VCR had just been invented, and its development is still in its infancy. Stay away from this device!
