Review title: Just barely accptable
Product review: I have waited several months to give using this unit a fair chance to prove itself, but there are just too many features that are not user-friendly to warrant anybody else getting stuck with this piece of junk. A few of my gripes:1. There is nothing intuitive about setting the timed recording features. One almost has to learn and remember a programming language to be sure to get it right given the bewildering array of all-too-small buttons.2. As some one else said too -- it won't record in LP; just standard and super long-play.3. It freezes up all too frequently in DVD. Not fatally, but annoyingly. Taping often have major "static" bursts recorded.4. For some reason it turns on DVD when it shuts off after recoding a TV program in VHS. If you try to record two sequential programs on different TV channels it won't do it while you're watching the TV.All-in-all, not something worth buying. Hardly worth bothering with as a gift.
