Title: Cheap Junk
Review: I bought this rewinder to replace an Omega 2 way ff/rw that I only had for a year. Initially with this and other rewinders, they are rough with tapes. Slamming at the end of the tape rewind isn't too good for a VHS tape over time. Along with this, the tape ends up looking unevenly wound throughout the reel, and in some cases the outer edge of tape, about 10 minutes worth, is buckled causing tape damage, and a nice buzzing tracking line down the screen upon playback. The concept of having a rewinder makes sense, because it does save wear & tear on the motor of your VCR, but the trade off is that you end up with damaged tapes. I returned this rewinder and just bought a basic JVC VCR to use as a rewinder. It's gentle with tapes, and gears down when it is coming to the beginning of the tape, unlike this Kinyo rewinder and others in this product line.
