General comments: The Philips VR740 has been put together to put people off vcrs, my second one has packed up just over 12 months from receiving a replacement one for the original one I had bought. This had only lasted 6 months and I had hoped that Philips had relised what a poor machine this was and that I would of got a better one, but no such luck. Philips used to be a company I use to swear by; but after my experiance with this and the TV I bought at the sametime they will be the last firm I will buy from.

Why do I have to enter the date when I want to use the timer? Can't it assume something here? Why can't I use the numeric keypad to enter times but have to use the up and down arrows? Biggest gripe th ...
