Works perfectly May 2, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I got mine 4 months ago for the purpose of copying my entire stock of vhs tapes onto dvd. I have been faithfully making at least 1 disc per day since then. With the exception of copywrite protected ones (mostly Disney - I've copied well over 240 movies (2 per disc in EP), and only have about 24 in my pile of movies that wouldn't copy), it has performed admirably and I have no complaints.
Regarding the clock problems that other reviewers mentioned, I suppose that would be a problem for timed recordings, which I'm currently not doing with the unit. However, I found that when the clock is not set (which happened when the power here went out), the unit doesn't display the unwanted information of when a particular title was recorded. (Honestly, I don't want to know what day and time I happened to copy my Ghostbusters movies onto a disc. I just want to know that they're copied and I don't have to rebuy them in dvd format.) Therefore, if you're not doing timed recordings, I'd highly recommend that you don't set the clock (which is what I decided once I discovered that). That also eliminates most of the default title so you don't have to delete as much when you enter proper titles.
I have never had a problem with my unit, and am nearly finished with my collection.
I like this recorder April 15, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have 3 of them. I found them easy to install and set up, and editing a disc is relatively easy. However, on one of them, the clock no longer works, so I record manually rather than setting up a timer. That's a little annoying. I'm looking to replace it with another, and it's important to know whether a dvd recorder has a tuner. The hook-up to a cable box and tv is very different if the recorder doesn't have a tuner, so I would recommend getting one with a tuner. This model produces a good picture and is easy to use. The remote and the keys on it are small.
You can do better! February 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this and it worked properly for 13 months until the clock mechanism stopped working, which rendered the programmable recording functionality useless. It still plays DVDs, but obviously I can get a DVD player for less than and DVD recorder. The unit is slow... in every aspect and really isn't that great.
In closing, if your buying this to record TV you can do better. Go for a hard drive based recorder that can give you > 30 hours of media. This thing can only give you 6 at best.
Crappy if i could i would give it no stars i would February 5, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I Brought this dvd recorder at Wal-Mart I only had it 2 weeks i can honestly say that it worked for one or two days after that i had to get rid of it. I set the clock, timer, etc the next morning i wake up and turn it on i would have to do it all over again so i took it back thank god i dont throw away my recipts or the box before the 30 days......
Unreliable December 31, 2007 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this unit in early 2007. It operated flawlessly for almost a year. In the last month it has become very sporadic. I am unable to finalize a recorded DVD about half the time now. The unit displays an "Error xxx" message very early in the finalize process.
