Looking at your pictures of your REOS, they seemed so large! Today I open the box and it was small (in a good way)! I mean seriously, I have the VV which appears to be larger than the REO Grand. If I would have known that, I might not have gotten a MINI! Oh well, I'm sure I'll love the runt of the family just as much as the others and will probaly find a place for it! If my VV is this small, then the MINI must be microscopic! But it's all good and I sincerely appreciate all of your advice and kindness!
