I have what I think may be an earlier model of this tv/vcr combo since mine doesn't have the V-chip and the remote control is different. Other than that it's the same thing. I've had mine for about five years now and am quite satisfied with it. One handy feature mine has is called "Nite Mode". This mode darkens the picture to make it easier on your eyes if you're watching at night with the lights off. VCR programming is easy and intuitive.

The only major improvement I'd make is to the quality of the remote as certain buttons on mine have begun to stick or not work at all. I suppose it's normal wear and tear so I got a universal remote to deal with that. Another thing I'd like is the option of a rear A/V input as opposed to having them in front because this makes for some awkward running of cables around the set. Overall it's a good value for the money if you have limited space in your home and can't afford any electronics clutter on the TV stand.

This is a great TV (it's a Sony Quasar, so why not?), but I bought this so long ago that this review is probably worthless. Besides, the TV is no longer available from Amazon. It has a built-in VCR, and who the heck uses VCRs nowadays? The picture is great, if you're on cable, but I don't even know if it's digital cable compatible, or if you need a converter if you use an antenna. I guess, after May, when all television becomes digital, it will make a fairly adequate boat anchor.
