Pros
Great picture/sound. Nice display. Great tape transport, nice remote, way better than their cars.

None! A great deck at a reasonable price.
Recommended it?
Yes
Seems like a good machine, purchased from Tweeter about a month ago. Always wanted an S-VHS machine, but the current offerings from JVC are either junky or $400; too much to spend on any VCR except a D-VHS machine.
This Mitsu has great picture quality (use a real S-VHS tape to get the most out of it -- make a huge difference), Bat-out-of-hell rewind, but has gotten noisy rewinding so I'm exchanging for another machine (same one). Tape transport is smooth (other than the rewind problem) and very quick.
Overall a very nice unit, with S-video jacks in and out for the best picture quality possible. The cable eye only controls 3 brands of digital cable boxes; if you have a motorolla forget it. Remote lights up, if not useless a cool feature. For just over $200, considering it'll probably be the last VCR you'll buy, it's definietly worth it.
Update: I've had the machine for over a year, works great. With a VCR this good, I see no reason to jump on the recordable DVD bandwagon until you're able to record true dolby digital sound and HDTV resolution for a reasonable price. That's not yet.
