This is a set including a 2011 Sony Blu-ray recorder and everything shown in the photos. After purchasing, I used it for a while, then it was unused for about 9 years. I used it again for about 3 months recently, and it worked without any problems. The remote control is not the original one; I purchased a compatible remote control from another manufacturer to use with it recently. There are no manuals, but I think it's easy to operate intuitively.
