Query: When it works, it's great......

Within 2 weeks of purchase, this VCR began to 'reject' tapes it didn't like. I thought at first it was because the tapes were old or of poor quality, so I threw a lot of them away and bought new, higher-quality tapes. But then it began to happen with brand new tapes. I'd put the tape in, it'd spit them right back out. Now, after a year, EVERY tape I put in gets ejected at least 4 or 5 times before it will play. Many won't play at all. I'd give this unit less stars, but it does do very well if I can ever get the...tape in to begin with!
