This Panasonic VCR is extremely easy to use, and has a great picture and sound. It works with the Panasonic universal remote I already had. The thing I like best is how easy it is to set up and save a week of recording in advance. You can see 8 slots of shows you want it to record. You can have them continue recording every week until you want to change them, which is very easy too. There are several other ways you can also set up to record. This is the main reason I wanted a Panasonic because some other brands have set ups that make it very difficult to manage your preset recording menu.

This replaces another one I had to send back. The refund on the first one was fast & this one works great. My cable remote was able to find this unit & work the functions great. I am very happy with this VCR.

My vhs tapes are old. I assume the quality of many of the tapes that I see on the screen reflects their age, not the player. Some are better than others. Therefore, my conclusion is that it's the tapes, not the player.

Very Simular to the model it is replacing ... and just in time. Last model went out last of June. With the new season of TV program on the USA Channel ... it came in on the day I needed to start recording. Found most of the main functions I use from the last model quickly ... Date/Time setup went quickly. Channel Scan/Set was helpful. How to setDate/Time/Channel record was very simular. Comercial skip button. Pushing most of the buttons on the Remote has to be done with little more than normal force ... BUT look at this ... the remote from the last model works the PV-V4611. Am sure I can find a manual online, for any function I seldom use (like once a week - which I haven't used yet) should be explained in it. Also I can set the remote to control the TV and cable box.
YES, A VERY NICE VCR, I AM VERY HAPPY WITH MY PURCHASE.
