5 out of 5 stars best standard grade vhs tape I've used   December 10, 2006

Was buying Sony tape at Walmart but my VCRs kept eating them (have four VCRs - two are Sony).
Purchased these Maxell and expected the same thing to happen but to my surprise they work perfectly.
Only record in SP mode since most movies are edited to fit into 2 hour time frame anyway, and the two series I record are one hour each. Extended recording results in lower picture quality, and the manuals for my VCRs state that as well.

Taped recording was excellent and nearly identical to TV broadcast quality.
Only purchase 120 minute tapes now. Other tapes I have used over the years include TDK, Fuji, Sony, and RCA.

These Maxell are better by far.

As a rule I don't "archive" anything either, but recording in SP you have the choice. If the show isn't a "keeper" I just rewind the tape and record over it.

Not sure how many rerecordings I'll get on these Maxell, but have gotten about a dozen on other tape.



1 out of 5 stars I'm appalled   February 6, 2006

This tape is terrible, at least on extra-long play into a standard TV set. I would have given it two stars because I *have* seen worse--just not recently--but since there is no way I'm buying this product again I decided one star was fair. If I have to raid an hour here, an hour there from my old tapes that's preferable to peering at this.

I don't use SP speed, because I'm not archiving TV shows. All I ask is that I be able to watch my programs with enough quality that I can see what the characters are doing.

I just bought a replacement VCR and these tapes. The picture quality (on EP) was intolerably grainy, similar to non-HDTV through an antenna. So after testing recording and playback on several brands of tape of different ages I returned my new JVC VCR and bought a Sony instead. But the new one's recordings were still very grainy. Oh no! But I took a deep breath and ran the same tests. Turns out the problem is these Maxell tapes! The Sony records acceptably well on my *old* videotapes. The quality isn't as good as my old broken RCA, but it's tolerable. --So this leaves me with the question of whether there are any affordable videotapes sold these days that are watchable?
