We got a 162 (not a 160). Recorder is attractive and easy to use - great menus, good 8-day guide that you can search through, good series recording - generally fully-featured. Only 1 real problem: the recording we had (about 50% of them) skipped forward in time. That is, they recorded the right length but skipped forwards on playback: basically unwatchable. We swapped for another, but it exhibited the same problem. Good recorder, with a fatal flaw that didn't make it fit for purpose. Maybe we were just unlucky (twice).
