    Best Buy is about the only place that carries VCR cleaners. Mine is 20+ years old and I wanted to keep it alive. This product is perfect for that task. VCR still works. Thank you.

    Sound distortion was so bad I almost gave up on transferring old family tapes to digital format until I got this cleaner. To my great relief, using the cleaner VHS tape restored audio and video to normal.

    For those of us who still use VCRs, being able to find a wet/dry head cleaner that isn't NOS is a nice surprise. I used it and noticed an immediate improvement. It works the way it's supposed to.

    I hadn’t used my VHS player in some time and the quality wasn’t what it used to be. This head cleaner spruced it up very nicely. Even my stills on pause were great. Worth the investment.

    Head cleaner did 97% of cleaning the heads on the vcr, but need something stronger to fully clean, so that movies can be seen without lines.

    As simple as that, it does the job, for the ones that still have the old VCR and want to watch old family videos, this is something you must have to maintain your VCR clean and protect your old movies.
