    The correct year is actually 1992-1999 for this mechanism. 2000 was the redesigned mechanism.

      @@VCRGame88 Teac MV-425, MV-525, and MV-625 were made in 1992 with this brand-new mechanism. These were the only ones that you insert a tape at the left side instead of center.

    Funai VCRs tend to have a bad reputation, I disagree with that because they're easy to service, have common parts and simple (but functional) mechanisms. I have a fairly late model Funai which has seen very high (nearly every day since new being used) mileage that's still going strong with simple maintenance. It's what I've used to upload most of the videos on my channel.

      It's the same story with walkmans, the best walkman is the one with simple guts, the DD models are certainly high quality but once something breaks it can be a living hell to fix, i prefer that ones with belts.

      It's actually not the worm gear. It's the pulley. It is held with a cheap plastic piece that can break.
