Panasonic PV-V4540 4-Head Hi-Fi VCR
Poor choice
This has to be one of the most poorly designed remote controls I have come across.  The most frequently used buttons are so small they are difficult to find and activate, especially the CM Skip (commercial skip).  You cannot press this twice in succession, but have to wait a few seconds after it stops to start it again. In order to stop a timed recording, you have to hit the power off button(which does not turn the power off) and then hit &quot;stop&quot;.  The &quot;program&quot; and &quot;menu&quot; keys are also very difficult to find.  I made a very poor choice when purchasing this VCR, and if it were possible, I would gladly return it in exchange for anything except another Panasonic.
