Summary: A potentially great machine with a frustrating start up flaw
Review: Be aware! The only way to get rid of the annoying self commerials that go across the screen is to know that it is called a self-demo. With power on and no tape in, hold down play until the red words go away. Closed captioning doesn'r seem to work unless you do this.

Summary: Money well spent¿totally reliable
Review: Bought this model several years ago. Wished I bought a stereo model, but the mono is fine. Just cleaned the head for the first time after several years. If you put a jack from the head phone jack to a stereo receiver, you have clear, earthquake theater audio. Some channels have to be punched in on the remote. Screen has great color balance. Rewinds and FF like a locomotive. Good programming interface. Becomes fun after a few times. Kids can't seem to break it.

Summary: Liked so much, have bought 4 for gifts!
Review: The most for the money in a tv/vcr combo! Purchased 2 for kid's rooms - ages 10 & 11, last Xmas. Not a single problem. Easy to run, great b/i alarm clock to fm radio! Takes kid wear & tear like a champ! Bought 2 more this yr. for their parents, they liked so much. They kept grounding the kids and taking the tv to their room, so got them their own. Now that's a recommendation! A bit more in price, but worth it.
