Plain unit, short on the details

(3 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Jun 25, 2002
Easy setup, although you have to be patient during the auto mode. Universal remote was not so universal. It had a short list of supported TV's. JVC's answer was to try all the codes and hope for the best. The unit construction was not impressive. If you are using the unit with a cable box, the AUTO clock feature can not be used and the manual setup does not appear to have a battery back-up, which could lead to frustration with power interuptions. Picture quality is good, about the same as the Toshiba SVHS unit I purchased eight years ago.

Junk - Right out of the box!

(1 out of 5) by S. Painter on Oct 1, 2002 (Pangea)
This is a very cheaply manufactured vcr, and although it boasts S-VHS/ET recording capability, mine could not record anything right out of the box. In addition, the manual is far too skimpy to help with any sort of troubleshooting. I returned mine.
