I bought this to record my shows while my husband watches his. It works great and nice to be able to watch my shows again without having to wait for reruns. Thanks!
This recorder is affordable and works well. Record quality for 2hr is good and 4hr mode is acceptable. I wouldn't go any longer than 4hr mode. For the price. this model has been great. I had a more expensive panasonic before that had a little better picture quality and functions, but it had so many problems and defects, I was glad when it finally died.
I've had the recorder for over a month now and wanted to use it for a bit before reviewing. Like others I found the manual pretty much useless. Had I not had the experience of using/setting up a prior DVD recorder I would have been pretty lost. I"m not a tech genius but I'm also not a total idiot either!! The player itself works well. I like the quality it gives on transfreing older tapes onto DVD. Have actually been very impressed with that feature. Its response is somewhat slow to the remote but overall I would get another one if need be. I do HATE the remote howver. The buttons are very small and the print even smaller. This unit has many more functions on it then I need so there is alot that I don't even use (and havne't been able to figure out from the manual!!) but that is probably my biggest complaint. They really need to make the manual much more user friendly and the print on the remote a brigher color so that you can read what the buttons are!
A typical Toshiba product that you woid expect from Toshiba.
If you don't have a DVD Player/Recorder I would get this one. Real easy to set up and use.
I expected and NEEDED the Coaxial to be the "pin and tighten the screw on connection, which is what existed from my Time Warner Cable Co. AND which is the type of connection I find at my resorts - the reason I bought this DVD Recorder. Without the cable box and its function I have at home, I need to splice into the coaxial cable coming into ALL resorts.
I bought this last August and it's January, I've used it maybe 5x max, and it doesn't work. Terrible purchase.
My house wais in the dinosaur age and didn't have DVR capabilities. I was trying to replace our DVD player/recorder and discovered that they're fairly rare now. This Toshiba looked good, and the price was good also. However, after connecting it I tried to record a program on a channel different from the one I was watching. No go. Back to the manual I went, only to discover one sentence: 'This model is unable to record a program on one channel while watching another channel.' (not quite verbatim) What is a DVD recorder for, then? That sentence should figure prominently in the description of the item on the Overstock site. I've been very pleased with everything else I've bought from Overstock, and with the service, i.e., I returned this player and had no problem in doing so. I had also bought a warranty for it and was able to return that. (I've come into this century and we now have DVR capabilities.)
The unit worked perfectly but I returned my unit because it lacked a vhs side and I wanted to transfer all my vhs tapes to dvd.Overstock reps were very understanding about this and so when I returned it I did not have any problems with a refund.I will be reordering from them soon.
This is a sleek, easy to use recorder. The picture quality of what I have recorded is crystal clear. I have recommended this machine to friends.
