| | Like many people, my VCR died, and I was stuck with figuring out which VCR/DVD combo to buy under $200. After reading all the reviews, I was terrified that whatever I chose would be junk.
I settled on this Toshiba. We have had a few weeks now, and so far, it has been an excellent choice. I found myself purchasing a lot more from Amazon lately, and have yet to be disappointed.

| | I don't know if this has happened to other people. This unit is probably good with the right TV. I really wanted to get a high quality DVD/VCR recorder/player to play DVDs and VHS tapes and to copy videos to DVD, and this one sounded good. The problem (which I had never heard mentioned before) is that it's (apparently) not compatable with my Sharp Equos HDTV. The DVD player works fine, but when I put a VHS tape in, the picture blinks on and off. I cannot even express how frustrated I am, after looking at a lot of different models and picking one that I thought was just what I was looking for, and priced so that I could manage to purchase it, that it is useless with my TV. (Pardon me while I vent). I called the Toshiba customer support and they said it sounds like a problem with the TV. I called Sharp customer support and they said it is an incompatability problem. Why doesn't anybody mention this possibility? Am I the only one that this has happened to? OK, I'm done. Very dissapointed.

| | Very short - This unit DOES NOT have the Audio / Video syncronization problems that some units have. I tried a Samsung before this one and the Samsung had horrible audio delays. It was absolutely worthless. BUY THE TOSHIBA, trust me.

| | I needed a method of getting my Sony Video8 tape cartridges backed up to DVD and this works flawlessly. Now with it on DVD I can capture the video copy on my computer and produce very good DVD video productions of these older recordings. I'm very satisfied with the Toshiba D-VR610.

| Oh no, it ate the first two videotapes! | |
| | Just received this Toshiba DVR610 1018p in the mail and was excited to try it out. We popped in the first videotape (a family tape of important memories), hit play, and it made a terrible noise. We ejected the tape, but the machine had eaten the tape. Disappointment. Next, we tried another tape (an older one) and it ate it also. We returned the unit immediately.
