A Typical High Quality Sony Product
I've just set this recorder up. The instructions are easy to follow, and everything went as it should.The recordings are every bit as good as those on my older Hitachi recorders that have, and are still, serving me well.I find nothing that I don't like about this new unit. After a very unsatisfactory experience I had recently with a Samsung DVD recorder I just bought, this is a pleasant surprise.The DVD recorders (and players) are too slow and clumsy to use in comparison to with the VCR units, and as long as the latter are available, I'll stay with that format.
