Yes, I believe you should. In my opinion JVC made the best VCRs. Try picking up a JVC S-VHS machine, if possible. I notice that the Panasonics have been mentioned in this thread but I would avoid Panasonic unless it's one of their S-VHS VCRs, as their regular VHS units often had difficulty tracking tapes properly.
