Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - adequate for a while, then died
When first bought, it was easy to set up and record. I copied old VCR tapes to DVD and recorded shows to watch later (and skip commercials). The family did NOT like that it did not allow one to watch TV for up to several minutes when 1st turned on or when inserting a blank DVD. After one year it developed a progressive problem recognizing disks at times, both new and pre-recorded. This progressed over a short period of time -- now the DVD half is effectively dead. The VCR side works fine. I really expected it to last longer.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Worked great for a year
Bought one about 2 years ago and it was flawless. I backed up my kids vhs tapes to dvd's which of course it records them in Divx format but no big deall as my other players also does divx. About 8 months ago it got to where it wouldn't play dvd's. I opened it up and tried cleaning the laser but still had the same results. I also noticed the dvd drive itself was basically the same as a computer dvd drive and used the same cable hook ups. So removed my dual layer burner from my pc and installed it (had to design a way to mount it so it aligned up with the opening)in the dvd/vhs player. Perfect again....

Oh incase someone is wondering this doesn't play vcd or svcd out of the box but there is a hack you can do to turn that option on in a hidden settings menu and the remote (just google it) I did it in 5 mins and it works great!!!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful
I've used this recorder (the VCR and the DVD recorder both) for months now and I absolutely love it. Flawless recording, fantastic playback, and perfect recording. My other DVD recorders (a Centrios and an RCA) had so many issues they weren't woth keeping. The other reviewer may have had a bad unit, but needlessly insulting LG as "low end c**p" isn't very helpful.

Remember to use rewriteable DVDs to make nice custom menus for your recordings. You'd be surprised how many editing options you have for your recordings.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - No Complaints for the Price
I've owned this item for about a month and have had no problems with it at all.

Contrary to the experience of the other two users here the DVDs I've created (either by dubbing from a VCR tape or by recording live TV) have worked flawlessly in the other two DVD players I own. Mind you, you do need to finish a disc before you insert it into a standard DVD player, but that's to be expected. The VCR has also worked fine every time I've used it.

I also appreciate that machine has a number of inputs that allow you to use it essentially as a hub for the rest of your devices. I have both my computer and my cable box connected through composite/s-video inputs and thus never have to touch my TV remote. Also, unlike some VCR/DVD combinations only requires one set of outputs not matter what you're doing. Other DVD/VCRs only allow you to output only DVDs through the higher quality component ...
