Moral - know what you want before you buy it.

Advantages: It's cheap.
Disadvantages: Simple to use - I don't think so.

This is just the shortest of reviews because I noticed that reviews for it were a little thin. I promise to replace this with a more comprehensive effort after more use. What did I want? A quick way of copying old VCR tapes to DVD. Did I get this? No. Main problem - given you have a VCR, and a blank DVD, it would seem logical that it was possible to plug in the box, and press a few buttons - or even use the remote. Not possible.

I wanted to replace a separate video recorder and dvd ...
...never able to get it all sorted so that I could record on all stations. But with the single unit it is so much easier to set up. I haven't used all the features such as editing yet, but the menu system is very straightforward. This is the perfect machine to replace a video recorder.
