Easy to set up and program. Has commercial skip feature that automatically fast forwards when commercials show up during play back. No action required of the viewer.

To date I haven''t found a serious weakness. I probably paid more that I would have at a discount place, but I like the local dealer and feel he needs business too.

The VR661HF is a compact thunder of a unit. It is extremely to set up and program. It checks your cable system for a channel that has the time signature listed and sets the clock on the VCR automatically.I think it''s a honey of a unit
