- Miserable Warranty
After six months of good service, my DR560 went belly up.For some reason the DVD tray would not close.Technical support was a waste of time.For a "nominal charge" of $90 plus shipping they would replace the unit with one that has been refurbished.And I had to pay with a money order (no personal checks or credit cards) and ship the broken unit back at my expense before they would send the new/used replacement.Some warranty.I had been a fan of Toshiba but no longer.
Rating: - They just don't work for me
The one I received did not have a fully functioning digital tuner. The picture came in b&w. To the service depot it went. Came back a week and a half later and they had done nothing to it. So, back it went. This time after two weeks, still no word, no equipment. I called their customer service again and two days later a guy called from the service depot saying they can't repair the unit but Toshiba will ship me brand new unit to replace it.
The new unit came and it seemed to be working ... Read More

Have you ever wished you just waited a few weeks or months to buy the newest and latest?I did.This is an adequate machine for what it is; however, it is just average compared to other products with the same features.It does record and the output is as good as the source.A VHS tape recorded to the disk is still a 480 picture at best.A HD TV program at 1080i looks super on disk.As I said it does what you want it to do.Be prepared to have a flashlight to see the little non-lit remote.Sometimes ...

- A good solution for recording to DVD
I haven't fully explored what you can do with this machine, but it is easy to use and produces good recorded DVDs.Of course, it's also a good player.
The uses I have for it, not all of them tested yet:copying VHS tapes to DVD (from my existing VCR); recording TV programs off the "air"; watching prerecorded (or my own previously recorded) DVDs; producing edited DVDs of my own recorded materials; tuning in QAM channels directly from my cable.This last is an interesting new capability that I ...

Rating: - DVD Recorder
I expected to be able to put in a blank DVD and push the record button. Aparently there's more to it than that, and I haven't had time to look into it. Playback of pre-recorded disc's seems much clearer than the (namebrand) unit I already have.
