Good VCR.
I picked up one of those in 1984, and still have it. Last time I checked (last summer?) it still worked 100%. I don't think I have done anything to it except new rubber and cleaned the mode switch.
For a few years, it was integrated into my first TV/VCR, which used this VCR, a CTC17 chassis that I put into a Magnavox cabinet with the Maggie CRT, a solid state Toshiba Tuner, and tied the whole thing together with a Jerrold ultrasonic remote cable box. When finished, everything worked, and the remote controlled them all.
I had way too much time on my hands back then; now days I cant even find time to change the batteries in my remote control
