Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR
Buyer Beware
We ordered two of the Philips Magnavox VRA211AT VCR's -- and had to return both! Although we were able to get really nice video in the beginning  on the second one, it only lasted for less than an hour. Subsequent attempts to play tapes gave us only a bright blue screen and audio. The units also  refused to give back tapes. (On the first unit we purchased we never did  get video, only audio.) On the bright side, the unit was  (nicely)lightweight, straightforward, installation was simple enough for a  small child, and the remote was very easy to use. But, overall, I wouldn't  recommend this model in terms of reliability. (Amazon staff was helpful,  understanding and professional -- a pleasure to deal with! )
