Yup.. Funai. I knew they were horrible from past experiance, but gee whiz.. it broke in 2 days. (it sucks in the tape crooked and now one is stuck and it won't come out). I have never had good luck with combo units tho. In 2004 I bought 2 Toshiba combos and 1 Sony. The Toshiba's were never happy reading DVD's. and 1 of them flat out let out a spark as I was trying to program a tape. The Sony was a bit better, but always went into auto track when playing ANY tape. Just enough to be a pain in the a**. Even on Studio tapes... you'd be watching something, and then radomly the auto-track logo would pop on the screen. I DO have a JVC combo unit that's been pretty good thus far. I'm going to give the Aunt an old VCR, altho I hinted and am trying to have her get DVR service. She is just at that age where it is NOT a joy explaining how to operate a new device. I think I will give her an old RCA VCR as even "Timmy!" from "South Park" could program one of those........
