Panasonic DMREZ25 ?DVD Recorder with Freeview
Customer Review: fair-to-middling, bit pricey
Have owned one of these for 18 months, is still working well with regular use — mainly for recording a few Sky programs per week via SCART and watching DVDs.

Average DVB tuner (the one on my Philips LCD suffers less break-up), good picture, reasonable analogue sound.

Fan often comes on when recording and noise can be a bit distracting. Occasionally get disc noise on playback.

1hr and 2hr recording modes via SCART are good, 4hr is a little poor for my liking. Recorded DVB picture often seemed a bit poorer than the live picture was (more blocking, especially with smoke or large areas of same colour).

OK otherwise.

Customer Review: re previous reviews
had this recorder for about a month now and i have had no problems with the manual nor any problems recording from sky+. picture quality is very good, it records on all discs, for the money i dont think you will buy a better machine
