Customer Review: Frustrating
I bought this recorder, and was initially very pleased. Set up was simple, and actually recording couldn’t be easier. Unfortunately the machine I had could not keep synch with the picture and audio in high quality mode, and also suffered some glitches in the 2 hour setting. I may have been unlucky to get a faulty machine, but after wasting many discs I could not recommend this model.

Customer Review: Worth every penny
Excellent quality. Arrived promptly. Easy to setup. Recording within the hour. Used DVD-RW. HQ setting is excellent although disks only last an hour. Took disk straight from SONY and played on Denon with no finalising required. Ace. N.B. For best quality (up to 2 hours) get some Dual Layer DVD-RW. May need a hack for multiregion.
Customer Review: Wow! You can see the difference!
This is a great peice of kit. It’s cheap, easy to use and the difference the upscaling makes to the image quality is quite remarkable. I use it through a SONY 37″ LCD HD TV. I watched Disney’s Cars and the picture quality is quite stunning. So good in fact that I can’t see how HD could improve upon the picture this little baby produces. The upscaling does seem to make a noticable difference. Set up is quite easy and the upscaling option defaults as standard to 1080i, so you don’t have to do anything to get a great picture. The manual is very good and you can use the remote control to control the TV - one less remote to sit on! The only down side of this product is the small and not always easy to read display. Other than that, highly recommended - it’s a bargain.
