Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR is an autocleaning two-head model with an onscreen bilingual (English and Spanish) display. A digital autotracking system automatically seeks the optimum position for both audio and video. Buttons on the remote transmitter give you manual control should tracking adjustments be necessary. You can search in forward or reverse mode at 15 times normal playing speed in superlong play (SLP).

This VCR also enables you to record up to eight hours of programming. A touch of the button on the remote adds 30 minutes of additional recording time. Eight-event, one-year smart programming allows you to program your VCR for unattended recording of up to eight separate programs over a 365-day period. No manual setting, adjusting, or programming of the calendar function is required. Onscreen features facilitate programming by giving you simple visual verification while the timer/programmer backup system retains timer programming information for up to a full minute in the event of momentary power interruptions.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a good bet, January 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR (Electronics)
This is a low-end unit that might be suitable for a second set (such as a childs room). The auto-tracking is unreliable, it has lots of problems playing rental tapes and I find the remote clunky. Definitely look at a unit further up the quality scale if this is to be your primary VCR.

2.0 out of 5 stars Decent for the price, February 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR (Electronics)
The reason I bought this VCR was the price and because I own a Phillips Magnavox TV. On the plus side, I can control the TV with the VCR remote. This VCR plays tapes, the response is slow and there is no easy way to adjust the tracking using the remote. Shop around unless you already own a TV by the same manufacturer.

4.0 out of 5 stars I am still excited at having got this vcr at such a price, January 8, 2000
By 
This review is from: Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR (Electronics)
The same vcrs are selling in local stores for over 100.00 to have got mine at the price listed made me more than happy even before vcr arrived..Upon reciving the vcr the kids took it over and i have 4 boys so if it can last through them then i would say it has been put to the test..And we have had no problems what so ever out of it...I have to admit it is not a 4 head but knew that when buying but for a standard 2 head vcr it does realy well great picture wonderful onscrean programing and guess what guys how you couldnt plug cable in back before they have gotten smart and made a cut out on the side that cable goes into the back and it is so much easier to plug/screw the cable in now..that was a big plus all on its own,,,so if had to do over again i would not hessitate to buy this great vcr again
