I love this recorder, and replaced the previous version of this recorder. It does have one greatly annoying feature, and that is how slow the menu is to react to the commands one enters. I believe this Magnavox might be the only recorder available on...

We have been using this DVR for about 5 years and just love it. We don't want to pay for any additional services, Just use it for recording our TV shows. Both the DVR recorder/player and DVD player have worked flawlessly. I give this a big 5 Stars
