A Great DVD Recorder for the money!
21 of 21 people found this review helpful.
This unit was purchased to be a video recorder for a home security system. It performs flawlessly in that department.... as I am able to record up to 120 hours of material. But before I hooked this unit up to the security cameras, I used it as a home dvd unit. Here is what I came up with:
I would have given an Excellent rating, but this DVD recorder is lacking in a couple of categories. Reason I say this, is because I own the other two DVD recorder models from Panasonic. While this unit has lots of Harrd Drive space to record many programs, it is very dependent on the TV Guide function to set up any type of record schedule. This can be quite clumsy and time consuming for those not adept at home electronics. The other two models don't have this time wasting feature, which may sway you decision. The other feature I feel is lacking is the menus you are able to program when you finalize a dvd. Not really a big deal, but one to think about when comparing toother dvd recorders.
Other than the TV Guide dependency for recording shows, this unit is flawless in every other function. It has a great picture and is very user friendly. It has tons of Hard Drive space -- enough to record a full season of a tv series -- and the price is right!
So, if you are in the market for a reasonably priced dvd recorder with copious amounts of hard drive space, than think about checking out the Panasonic DMR-E85H DVD Recorder.
