This Unit Seems To Do It All

byrwcat Oct 15, 2003
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros A lot of features for the price! Tests great so far.
Cons Some minor design gripes, but no big deal.
Recommended it? Yes

I just got my Toshiba SD-V391 DVD player/VCR combo a few days ago and it's performed well so far. I chose this model because of the features, price, and Toshiba name.

DVD playback is good. Navigation is pretty simple, with the same controls (search, scene skip, zoom) you'd expect from any... Read full review »

Toshiba SD-V391 is a piece of junk

bylslane Oct 16, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros The clock seemed to keep pretty good time
Cons Unreliable and just plain awful. Never again!!
Recommended it? No

I have owned several VCR/DVD players and this is the worst unit I have ever had. The DVD side is far worse than an average unit and the VCR side stopped working after about 6 or 7 tapes. It still has a tape in it and I cannot get it to eject the tape. NO MORE TOSHIBA GARBAGE IN MY HOUSE!!! Read full review »

Not a good choice

byopera_man Jun 17, 2004
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Cheap and nice to have 2 capabilities of VHS and DVD in one unit.
Cons DVD playback is not poor and likely has a design flaw.
Recommended it? No

I purchased my unit from Best Buy and opted out of the add-on service warranty. Big mistake. My DVD play started sputtering and freezing and when I took it into Best Buy they said sorry you didn't pay for the xtra warranty so off to Toshiba (Canada) it must go. After about a month of tinkering with... Read full review »

Decent machine

bystdh Jan 19, 2004
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Good name brand, decent performance, great price
Cons it's occasionally overly sensitive to dirty discs.
Recommended it? Yes

Not bad for a dual combo machine at this price range - I paid $120 at PC Richards. Offers a good brand name, fairly easy instruction, and decent picture quality. It does have one problem though, it fails to read discs that are slightly dusty. It reads after I give the disc good cleaning but I seem... Read full review »

Good basic DVD/VHS

bycamp9 Nov 29, 2003
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Price, size
Cons Remote, on screen interface
Recommended it? Yes

Not the best unit, but certainly not bad. The overall build quality and finish are OK. The DVD drawer is a bit cheap and off center, but does not appear to affect functionality. The remote is very poor and the on screen UI is terrible. If you buy this unit get a good after market universal remote. Read full review »

No Big Complaints

Pros Use of a decent DVD player without having to throw out those VHS tapes.
Cons Won't play poor quality DVD's.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had this unit for almost 2 years and have had no real problems with it. It plays my CD's and DVD's just fine. It is fickle about playing copied or low quality DVD's, but don't they all. If you're trying to play a scratched or burned DVD, you will probably have a problem. Read full review »

Toshiba SD-V391 DVD VHS a bad choice for reliability

bymicroben Apr 29, 2005
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Low price.
Cons Bad reliability, bad servicing.
Recommended it? No

I bought a SD-V391 one year ago. I always had problems with this combo. One day I can listen one full DVD without any problems, but the next one it is impossible to listen the same DVD. Frequently the SD-V391 stop the reading and freezes the image indefinitely. I asked to my dealer the reason of... Read full review »
