Pros Nice Features and worked great!(until it broke)
Cons It is broke.
Recommended it? No

I have an older TV with a set-top DTV tuner. I wanted to upgrade to a DVD recorder from my VCR. After reading reviews, I settled on the Toshiba DR570 with a built-in DTV tuner. (replaces DR560) There were some consistent negatives, mainly relating to the remote control, but the Toshiba fit the need... Read full review »
