    Great Recorder for Price

    "I've had this DVD recorder now for a few weeks and really like it. Both the VHS and DVD player and recorder functions work very well. I was able to pretty much plug it in and have it going in minutes. Unlike a lot of manuals that accompany products, this one seemed to be pretty easy to follow. So far, I have used the unit to copy VHS to DVD and recorded programs onto DVD as they were broadcast or utilized the ti..." Read Full Review »

    "Liked the product. It was everything previous reviewers had mentioned. I like the one button touch for copying if needed. The one problem I found though was selecting the right DVD format for copying, since there are so many to choose, and it's not clear which format is most universally accepted.

    "My main reason for a DVD recorder was for archiving Hi-8 video and old VCR tapes. I did not need a tuner since a cable box is required with my system anyway. I hooked it up between my cable box and TV (took about 5 minutes)....10 minutes later, I had connected my old Sony videocamera and was burning …"  Read Full Review »
