This was the worst electronic purchase I have ever made. Only lasted a few months for recording then just played dvds now it does nothing but collect dust.
The player brings 3 DVD+RW blanks that records but can't be used in another player. But it sucks and it's slow and lazy. The finalizing process to make your DVD recordings compatible with other players takes an eternity as well. Simply put. Sometimes while finalizing it erases everything; basically everything you recorded is gone. Sure it works, it records, and it has good picture quality. Sure it's a DVD recorder, and yes it can transfer your old time VHS classics.
Plus it has the worst fast forwarding feature I have ever seen: instead of fast forwarding the picture it lags even more. But it's lazy. what I mean by that is that the player works when it wants to, he accepts only certain types of blanks, you can only use DVD+R all other's will not function, if you want to watch a movie it takes an eternity for it to load. MY PERSONAL RATING: 2 OUT OF 5
I used this product for burning not more than 10 DVDs - none of them were consistent. Some did not work on most DVD players, others did work anywhere.After struggling with it for 6 months(I am a infrequent user as I burn my kid's video on this), this machine broke on me and hasnt worked since.I couldnt trace the company for followup and I had lost my CCity receipt to go back - overall useless blow up of my money (75 dollars when I bought it)Be careful on warranty if you are brave enough to buy this.
The disk tray got stuck and wouldn't open or play. The disk tray only operates intermittently so don't put a disk in if you don't want to run the risk of losing or damaging it.Cyberhome's website is up for sale so I am assuming now that they have gone under.
I returned it right away and have had the "new" one for less than a year. Attempted to record several programs recently (I don't use it daily) and it appears to be recording but doesn't record ANYTHING.
Just wanted to add my two cents here. That means you will get no tech support on this product.
I have never been more disappointed in a product. I purchased one and had to return it on the same day.
I don't remember what I paid for it now.probably around $100 but after reading some of the other reviews I think it is a sham of a product - never intended to really operate for any length of time.
Purchasing a Cyberhome model of any kind is a poor proposition, owing to their high rate of failure, and, oh, that detail about their being out of business. Please note that it is no longer possible to get ANY customer support, warranty coverage nor even downloadable manuals or upgrades. [.].
