Review title: Panasonic PV-V4523S Review
Product review: The Panasonic PV-V4523S is a good VCR. It's one of the last to record in LP mode. The following models only record in SP/EP. The shortcomings are the silver finish and the tape advance. The silver finish wears off quickly in the high use areas, especially on the remote. The tape counter is awkward. It only shows on the TV screen and not on the LCD panel on the front of the VCR. The screen only shows Play and Rec on the LCD panel while in use w/o showing the tape counter. In REW and FF the screen only shows those terms briefly while the tape starts moving, making a precise rewind or fast forward imprecise. After one year of heavy use it has held up well. I bought two more to have one that will record in LP for the future.
