Pros All that you pay for and a little more. Good feature set.
Cons S-L-O-W. No HDMI.
Recommended it? No

I have a rule when it comes to electronics. Buy the best. Before buying anything I read a lot, browse a lot, research everything and consider all of the major brands. So how come I've got a Protron PD-DVR100 sitting under my ridiculously overpriced TV? Well it's a long story.

Pros cheap, feature rich, decent playback and recording.
Cons questionable reliability, ugly interface, stolen design.
Recommended it? No

This was just about a week after the latest DVD recorder I bought from Walmart - an RCA, which I kind of liked, but then I didn't, so just that I don't miss on something good I had to run to HHGregg and pick one...

A True Winner, by far the best combo system yet

bymg2018 Jan 28, 2009
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Built In Fan which prolongs life<br>VHS player is in synch with DVD
Cons No pass through of signal and sound when unit is turned off
Recommended it? Yes

I have owned many DVD recorders since 2002, and finally Toshiba gets it. The Toshiba D-VR610 has the very best clearity, sharp images and abilty to reproduce HD signals from your cable box.  By having S-Video input as well as RCA in, you are able to capture HD and regular TV shows with 16:9 and 3:2...
