    Does the job

    The cleaner works fine. BUT Finding it in the store was a huge challenge. Getting help finding it was a HUGE challenge. Approached 4 employees and got varying degrees of rude dismissive attitude. If I could find this product at another store I would go there. Next time I'll check online!!

    VHS Video Head Cleaner finally found

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I could not a VHS head cleaner anywhere in town so the first place I thought of on-line was Best Buys b/c they have been so helpful in the past. The fact that i did not have to pay shipping, which could almost be the cost of the item, sealed the deal. It was ready for p/u within 48 hours. I went directly to customer service and out the door in under 10 minutes. One more happy, satisfied customer.

    This VCR tape cleaner works well and does not damage the VCR heads. Had a VCR with dirty heads and the image was noisy. Used it to clean the heads and the image was clear.

    CleanDR. VHS cleaner

    CleanDR is just that, a product that provides the medical care your VCR needs to get too full health. When I purchased a recent batch of VHS tapes(used) the picture was not that good. I thought it was the tapes, but after using the good DR. my picture was restored and all was good in the world. I would defiantly recommend this item to anyone in need of a good head cleaner.

    Effective product

    I, too, had old video tapes from the early 90's that I started watching again. Both VCR's that I used were unwatchable after the first couple hours. I followed the directions on the head cleaner tape and after a few moments the VCR's were like new.

    My workplace needed a wet/dry video head cleaning system. When we received our shipment, the cleaner is dry only. Although advertising in store as the wet/dry system, only the dry head cleaner is available in store.

    VHS Video Cleaner

    This product does what it is supposed to do. It is easy to use except sometimes the VCR does not recognize it and it won't play, but I found it you fast forward and rewind first it will play.

    Very poor quality

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The sprockets are so loose that they will not turn. Put it in the player and it won't play, it won't move. Tried several times to get it to work and it doesn't. Tried on 3 different VCRs.

    Terrible product, save your money!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I bought this product in hopes that it would help the quality that was coming from my VCR as I was converting VHS tapes to DVD however it wouldn't even run to clean the heads. Save your money, and don't purchase this product.
