Advantages: Looks, DVD tray, ease-of use Disadvantages: Hard to install properly, inferior quality recordings
At first I was very pleased with this product as the design is very good, it does not take up much space in terms of height and the blue light and opening mechanism of the DVD tray is a pretty nice touch.

Quick review of JVC DRM10
In 2.5 years of use this products needs a at least yearly " software update"
I currently run the last version, and still the thing ends every recording session at its own choosen moment, resulting in " loading" on the screen.

Never buy this; You will regreet it!!!
