We purchased our Panasonic 4 head Hi-Fi Stereo Vcr two years ago, and would never buy another brand of Vcr. This Vcr seems to do all, rewinds the tapes automatically after playing and ejects them for you also. The sound is like no other to compare to! This Vcr beeps a tone when you hit play when your tape has not been rewound to let you know that something isn’t right. When I hear the beep, I know to hit the rewind button. I highly recommend this Vcr for anyone that wants quality. Having a 4 head vcr gives you a much better picture, one that is clear and precise.
