Pros: Inexpensive purchase. I like dvd/vcr combo.

Cons: Required cost of WARRANTY labor is as much as a new machine!

from Shopping.com Pros: Inexpensive purchase. I like dvd/vcr combo. Cons: Required cost of WARRANTY labor is as much as a new machine! from Shopping.com The playback is very good. As for the features ,excellent, its' easy to work. The price of the Allego Progressive Scan DVD/VCR combo is a great buy. from Circuitcity.com This player has been great with playing dvds and vhs tapes with no problems at all. Actually I bought the Zenith version which is the exact same model and have been disappointed from the start. The Allegro can playback even my DVD-/+R's without any problem but the Zenith skips often and will sometimes shutdown entirely. I just wish I would have bought another Allegro instead of the Zenith. from Circuitcity.com The VCR does not have a very good picture in the EP (6 hour) speed for both tapes recorded on another VCR and for tapes recorded on this unit. Quality of the picture in the EP mode is important to me since I have many tapes recorded at that speed so I will be returning the unit. from Circuitcity.com We bought this unit in December 2005 and the VCR part never worked well (especially timer) the DVD died in January 2006. from Circuitcity.com This is my second Allegro. One for upstairs, one for downstairs. from Circuitcity.com What do you expect...its VHS not DVD which is now a standard. Compare tape audio to cd quality...there is none. If you are looking for a price effective dvd player combo, this is the one. The specs are true specs and anyone who has purchased a dvdplayer knows that this is typically not true. from Circuitcity.com Picture quality is great. The remote works with my Samsung TV. I still use the VCR all the time. Programming was a little cumbersome in the beginning, but not difficult once you get used to it. from Circuitcity.com I am very pleased with this purchase. Remote control is easy to operate, easy set-up and great playback on VCR and DVD. With rebate or without, this is a great bargain from Zenith. from Circuitcity.com
