arsvita VHS Head Cleaner Tape for VHS/VCR Video Players, Wet Type, ARVC-3

I bought this for my family because we couldn’t watch the tapes. Figured it might have been the very old player. Turned out the player just didn’t work anymore. Tried using it on another player we had but the tape had got stuck inside. Not sure if I misused it. Luckily the tape did not tear! We played our old tapes to watch and it worked, ig we didn’t need it completely. But we have it just in case we ever do.

Price Is Excellent & at my door& It Works !

Cheap flimsy piece of garbage. Waste of money. I put this into my good working Sony vcr and ran it. Tried to eject and it wouldn’t come out. I had to pry it out with a screwdriver and found that one of the reels in the cleaner was jambed and the tape got all tangled inside the unit. Had to tear the tape to get it out. You know as soon as you remove this cleaning tape from the package, that its very cheaply made garbage. Spend a few dollars more and get a better one. I’m happy that I didn’t damage the player with this garbage.

This thing is extremely cheaply made. The spindles just flop around inside the tape and don't rotate freely. This caused my VCR to repeatedly eject the tape immediately after it was inserted. I tried to rotate the spindles manually and free the tape up. This worked for a few seconds, but eventually my VCR just ate the tape inside. On the plus side, I think the heads did get a little cleaner; I saw some black residue on the tape that was in the shape of the head drum. Nevertheless, I will be returning this cleaner for a refund.

Item works well and shipped quickly.
