 excellent choice for a DVD Recorder December 6, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have purchased 2 of the these in the same exact model. I am very pleased with the ease of use and also with their performance. Not only can you record on DVD's, but you can also record on VHS. For those of us who still have blank VHS tapes to use up, this is a plus. Since you can watch your recorded items on both VHS or DVD, you can make the most out of this electronic device. Dubbing can be done from VHS to DVD so you can bring yourself up to speed in today's technology world. The Toshiba brand offers all this at prices much lower than any other name brand offering the same options. I also find it hard to be able to even find a device you can both watch and record onto VHS or DVD with. In my eyes, I made a great choice when I purchased this item....not only for low cost, but also for the ease of use of a product with many options available.

I have had this VCR/DVD combo a few weeks now and I have used it both as a DVD player and VCR to record and play back TV shows. I had seen reviews that loading a DVD is slow and it is marginally slower then the DVD player it replaced but not by much. It is taking a little getting used to programming the recorder, but I think that is just learning the unit. The maual was very clear, but who wants to keep reading the manual. I have not tried using the internal recording modes yet. I purchased the unit mostly because of the digital tuner for the VCR mode. I still time shift shows and this unit is working out just fine for me.

My first Toshiba DV/R 660 had problems. The memory was faulty and the unit had to be replaced. Amazon.com gets an A for good customer service and fast response. The second unit has performed very well and has not given me any trouble. Toshiba customer service in another issue, however,
Do not be fooled by the advertising. This unit will not record high definition broadcasts in 1080p. If you find a HD station that is broadcasting in 480p, then the Toshiba will perform as expected. Also, this unit will not copy commercially produced VHS tapes. They have the copyright settings so high that I had to use a time base collector to clean up the tape before I could make one only copy for my personal use.
As for most operations, be patient and learn all of the steps. It is a good idea to keep the owner's manual close-by until you have the procedures memorized.
