Is there an easy to use vcr?

My tv and dvd sound are played through a good sound system, anchored by a Threshold S300 amplifier. So, my sound is good, coming through the small Magnepans. There is a need for a vcr, though I know they may be becoming dinosaurs. It is important that the vcr be easy to use - does such an item exist? A very old one that I have and which has died is a nightmare to program - an old Mitsubishi SVHS. It's been a while since any comments were made on Audiogon re vcrs and I hope my inquiry is not too offbase. Thanks.
