It was a great price and I love how you can get reviews on products to see what people say that have purchased it. It realy helps alot.Digital camera Review: DVR 620 Does not work with Comcast DTA
Summary: 3 Stars
I have 2 Toshiba DVR620's and one older DVR610. The DVR610 Worked fine for me. I have it on a Comcast cable box and can record on DVD just fine. I have never tried the dubbing feature so I can't speak to that. I bought a DVR620 for my mother's birthday in October. She needed both a VCR and DVD player and I wanted her to be able to record as well. My mother also has Comcast with a cable box. I had problems with this DVR in getting it connected so that the DVD worked. When I finally got it all connected, the DVD tray would not open. I had to return it to Toshiba and get it fixed for $70 plus the return shipping because the labor warranty is only 3 months. The parts warranty is one year. Otherwise it worked ok. I haven't had a chance yet to get it connected back up and see if the DVR works with the DVD recording. Then I bought a Toshiba DVR620 for my bedroom TV. Recently, in Atlanta, Comcast has been converting to all digital. I had to get a Digital Adapter (a DTA not a full cable box) for the TV in my bedroom. Now before I bought the DVR620, I knew that the digital conversion would take place. Having done the conversion already at my mother's house, I knew that I would have the digital adapter. I called Toshiba before buying the DVR620 to make sure DVD recording would work with a digital adapter from Comcast. I was told yes. So after buying the DVR 620, I now find out from Toshiba support that DVD recording will not work with the digital adapter. I have to have the full cable box because you need the red/white/yellow audio and video inputs on the cable box for DVD recording to work. So be sure if you buy this unit and want to record on DVD that you have a full cable box and not the digital adapter.Digital camera Review: Defective Product

From the moment I got it out of the box with broken styrofoam I could tell something was going to be wrong. I was right we hooked it up and the door to the DVD player would not open. It also seemed to be cheaply made in China. BUYER BEWARE.Digital camera Review: Dependale combo at a good price
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this Toshiba combo when my older vcr/dvd player grew balky after 5 years of heavy use. It, too, was a Tobisha product and I was very satisfied with its performance. In fact, I passed the old combo on to my brother and he's happily using it as a vcr recorder/player. Presently, I use my new combo strictly for playing dvd's and videotapes -- both pre-recoded and home-recorded. I have a separate unit set up to record dvd's of my favorite TV shows, pay per view movies, etc. I still prefer this to using TiVo or hard drive recording. When my "recording unit" ages out (it's a Panasonic recorder) I will replace it with the new Tobisha combo. I bought the Tobisha because I still need the capability to play videotapes and it does that very nicely on my widescreen plasma TV. The picture quality for both videotapes and dvd's is excellent -- not as good as blu ray, but a cut above normal playback that I had before. The combo seems to be well-built and was easy to connect to my satellite receiver, TV and home theater system. Amazon had the best price by far for this combo and I have always been very satisfied with Amazon's quick shipping and customer service.
