This is a nice stereo for beginner and advanced users alike. I have been very happy with it thus far.
The front USB port and HD radio are nice features to have. The USB navigation is very straightforward if take a little time to organize your USB drive. With the included remote, it is easy to flip between folders and songs. I will sometimes create folders with playlists and you can shuffle the songs just in that folder. It is great for podcasts and audiobooks.
The look of the unit is very nice too. A nice feature is the ability to set the colors to about any selection in the spectrum. This is great so that you can match your car's interior lighting and are not stuck with an obnoxious color scheme.
I have not had a problem with this unit and it was very easy to install.

Installed in my 1999 Ford Taurus. HD Radio is fantastic if you are in a reception zone. The sound is fantastic. Even better if you upgrade your stock speakers. I also installed Pioneer TS-A6872R speakers all around. Best stereo I've ever owned. Buy yourself a little memory stick and carry all your music around!!! Liked it so much that I put one in My Niece's Chevy Cavalier. Chevy speaker aren't that good so expect to upgrade them as well. My only complaint is that the tone, bass, and fade controls are not easy to reach.

Very good receiver, iPod connection and HD radio work great. Only minor complaint is regarding no preset buttons. A bit trickier to setup presets and to recall them, but once you get used to it the receiver is a great value.

I bought this JVC unit about a year ago and since I got it installed, I've loved it ever since! I bought this model because it plays Usb's, Connects Auxillary, and Charges my iPod while playing. The Creative assorted color presets for day & night and it doesn't have so many buttons that your afraid to press something. The Equalizer on there has made my stock speakers sound louder and I've received nothing but good, solid reviews when I've showed family, friends or people my stereo. Its not complicated to use, has good features like option of connecting your Sirius/XM account to it (like I have installed on mine), the playback on iPod thru stereo or iPod and plays my MP3/WMA Cd's with ease. I'm happy that I got this stereo after deciding cause I didn't wanna spend much but still wanted enough features that kept my car bumping music. I recommend this JVC Unit if you don't want too much or are on a tight budget but most of all still, appreciate good features that you would enjoy than paying for any higher priced brands.
