    The head cleaner did not work on Magnavox dual VCR, DVD combo. But it worked extremely well on my daughter's VCR.

    The head cleaner for an old VCR does the job, but it has to be run through the cycle multiple times for the VCR to produce good quality video. I don't know if that is a function of the head cleaner or the VCR, but the more I use the cleaner the better the video quality. I just didn't expect to have to use the head cleaner 2-3 times between each VHS tape to get good quality video.

    From time to time the heads on my VCR NEED cleaning. I have used an earlier model of this VHS Video Head Cleaner with much sucess and delight. So why did I buy another one? Well, I had used up all of the "Magic Juice". The tape in the new purchase would not advance at all. When I discovered that, I tried to rotate the wheels manually. Neither "clog" would budge. So I returned to the store to exchange my purchase for another one; Best Buy had 7 more in stock. :-) But not one of them had "clogs" that were movable. :-( Yes, a staff member and I tested each one. As I have now read all of the reviews of this product, I believe it either works well or it does not at all. And the trouble I had was a common one. So common that I think Digital Innovations should have a remedy by now. But I could find none on its web site, nor was Best Buy helpful. What was helpful? One of the reviewers mentioned cleaning the heads with iso propanol. So I have pressed my old model into service with 6 drops of the rubbing alchol and Voila! my tapes are clear! Thank you, reviewer.

    This has helped my ancient vcr stop from eating my old vhs tapes. I know eventually I will have to convert my tapes but in the meantime this helps preserve them.

    Best way to clean VCR Heads

    This is the best way I have found to clean the heads on my VCR. The wet tape gently removes dirt and buildup from the heads and is simple to use. After running the cleaning tape my picture quality cleaned up nicely! Relatively inexpensive, this cleaning tape is a must have investment to help keep your VCR running at its best!
