Stay Away November 4, 2008 DO NOT buy this machine. I purchased mine at Best Buy in late July, watched exactly one DVD on it, and now it won't play anything, anywhere, anytime. I tried resetting it, hooking it to 3 different TV's, hooking it through different cables, and nothing. The display counter goes to 00:01 on both the DVD and VHS sides, and that's it, nada. Toshiba only has a 90 day warranty, and since we don't watch many movies, I'm SOL. Doubt if Best Buy will do anything either. Total garbage
Do not buy October 26, 2008 Purchased from Amazon thru third party 6ave.com. After less than 4 months of use, it "ate" one of my VCR tapes (could not eject it). Since the warantee is for 90 days only, I am out the full purchase price. 6th Avenue does not consider unusual circumstances - only the miniscule manafacturer warantee. Do not buy the SD-V295KU DVD Video Player & Video Cassette Recorder!!!!!!!!
You have to be a rocket scientist to set this machine up. September 18, 2008 Toshiba SD-V295 Tunerless DVD VCR Combo Player. I have never been so disgusted with the setup of this machine. After a month, sometimes it will tape and sometimes not. All the wires are hooked properly, but yet it seems to have a mind of its own. I do not recommend this product. 90 DAY WARRANTY. MINE DIED ON DAY 120. CHANGE THAT TO ZERO STARS.

I had bought this DVD/VCR in Feb 08, @ HH GREGG/ to replace the one my parents got me when I was 12 years old! (13 years ago) My sister had a Toshiba and she said it was a good product. So I bought it and I regret it! I have had to throw away at least 10 of my tapes because this product has messed them up! I am not sure exactly what happened that would make it do that! Also when I try to tape my shows on the VCR and watch them the next day the tape jumps and there are lines that look like it is trying to track the tape by itself when I had just bought the tape! And you can't hear anything from all the noise! I looked over the manual to make sure all hook ups were donr right and they are! I had my cable box checked and there is nothing wrong with it! I am really really upset with this! I really do NOT like this product! I am stuck with it the warranty is out and I am not gonna pay out more money to have it fixed when Toshiba should learn how to make GOOD products! I do not reccommend this product!
blurred picture in both vcr and dvd modes July 2, 2008 This unit outputs blurred and faintly colored video in both vcr and dvd modes, had to return back for a full refund. My 10 year old Mitsubishi that this was supposed to replace was outputting perfect picture on the same setup. Highly unrecommended, what a disappointment in Toshiba.
