Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Decent DVD Recorder
There are a lot of reviews on this, so I'll just give you a short take on what I like and don't like about this unit.I had previously owned a Panasonic DMR-ES20S, and some of my comments are based on this fact.It was quirky but good in several ways, and finally gave up the ghost.This Toshiba was at my price point, so I gave it a try.Keep in mind that I do not have an HDTV - my television is a 32" Sony flat CRT Wega.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great VCR Replacement
I have been using this for about 6 months now.Since getting a digital signal, I decided to do away with the VCR and instead get a DVR recorder.After reviewing several brands from Philips to Toshiba, I decided on the Toshiba DR560.From the beginning, this has been an awesome recorder.I have been using DVD+R and DVD-RW discs.These both work perfectly!I have not had any problems.I usually record on the LP mode.That gets me 4 hours of recording on 1 disc.Upon finalizing any recording, ...

Other than that its a great unit for the price.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A little tough to figure out, but it's working for me.

I've had the unit for about a month and it's working great. However, it was difficult to figure out how to hook it up. I have comcast high def and never have figured out how to hook the unit up so it recognizes all the comcast channels (i.e. the built in tuner is useless). Through trial and error, I did learn that ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Toshiba DR560
Overall, we have been very pleased with this product. The analog and digital channels came in perfectly using an inexpensive indoor rabbit ear antenna. We also tried hooking up directly to cable and this worked for the perfectly for the analog channels, but took a little work with the digital channels. The digital channel scan hung on one of the digital channels and could not complete its scan. A google search revealed that if you unplug the cable right before the problematic channel is scanned, the ... Read More
