Easy of record,order and watch programs. Large Drive Good Picture and sound quality. Great value for money

Hard Disk could have been less noisy Large and not very stylish

Good size memory and compatabilty with a satellite box.

Only one Freeview channel and not very intuitive for programming. Over-complex filing system.

very good picture, excellent design.

Easy to set up and use

It takes a littele while for it to react to a button being pressed.

It is good in every way, i hope it lasts as long as my other DVD recorder did, which lasted only two years. I intend to buy another Toshiba DVD recorder for another room.

when I put a Blank DVD in it said it was full, when it was not. There might have been some Dirt on the CD or I might have not put it in the tray properly.

Easy to connect. Good quality picture. Easy to use.

Takes time to load up when you swith on.

I love the ease of recording

The remote is huge, and has so many buttons it's hard to find the one you need. It takes a long time to boot up as well.

Easy to use guide

A good size and nice interface. Also good to have the remote control be able to control the TV.

Struggled with a pack of DVD+RW disks which it should support. Doesn't properly handle aspect ratio for wide-screen broadcast on 5:4 TV.
