Panasonic DMR-EZ17S DVD Recorder with ATSC Tuner Silver Reviews

This item is great, if you don't mind losing many of your recordings because the darn thing froze up. I've had this unit for a while now and it keeps freezing up.IT FREEZES UP ALL THE TIME - 5 or more times per week.I lose recordings already made on a disc, scheduled recordings don't record and I have to reset all my programs. I can't believe this unit sucks so badly.I can't believe I haven't thrown it in the junk pile yet.step away.step away from this unit.

 

Would this electronic work just the same in the Philippines. Was hoping someone could help me out. I live in the Philippines and would like to purchase this to record some educational shows from the Discovery Channel and National Geo that my children miss while they are at school. I'm not knowledgeable with regards this matter.

 

I like the slimness of this model too. I bought this unit as a replacement for my previous Panasonic recorder that had stopped recording. I was very happy to see that the learning curve was almost non-existant as many of the controls were similiar or exactly the same. It has to fit on top of my old VCR and TV and it does perfectly. I was also happy to have something that worked so easily without problems.

 

After all these resets, it would still not play ANY disc I put in it. But then I was watching a regular, commercial DVD this morning, and midway through the show, it inexplicably froze. I get a "No Read" error. And this happened on the first day. I guess you get what you pay for, cheaply-made electronics that are neither durable nor reliable. I'm returning this and replacing with something else.

I hooked it up, and it easily tuned in all my cable TV channels, was able to get the remote to also control my TV. Seems to me like it has a lot of nice features, but is way too delicate and easy to break. Got off to a good start with this unit, mainly got it to replace my old Panasonic DVD player that had stopped working after 5+ years, figured I might as well get a recorder. I never even got a chance to try out all the recording features. I ejected the disc, power-cycled, and even unplugged it, and I even tried the "freeze" reset suggested in the manual.

 

Panasonic wants me to send it in for repairs. I have had it for three weeks and now the eject button does not work. I received this unit from Panasonic after another Panasonic DVD recorder broke down after six months. Their customer service department is as unreliable as their products. Perhaps Panasonic is slipping in quality overall. My advice, after many years as a loyal Panasonic customer, is to at least avoid their DVD recorders.
