Junk - DO NOT BUY MAGNAVOX

 

Junk - DO NOT BUY MAGNAVOX

This was my expensive upgrade from the cheap DVD recorders I had been buying. Although it worked a few times, it worked poorly (slowly) every time. Then it stopped working altogether with it saying "BLOCKED" on the screen. I got it open and got my...

"Blocked" Junk City

We bought this machine new. We used it less than 30 times. When I try to insert a DVD a message comes up stating "blocked". Buy another machine, this one is junk.

Doesn't Hold Up

I've had this DVD Player/Recorder for just over a year and it just stopped working the other day (right outside of the warranty coverage period, of course). Not only are the menus difficult to navigate, but none of my universal remotes work with the...

"BLOCKED" DEFECTIVE DVD Recorder to AVOID

 

"BLOCKED" DEFECTIVE DVD Recorder to AVOID

"BLOCKED" DEFECTIVE DVD Recorder shuts down soon after purchase. MAGNAVOX seems to have programed it to shut down and not open. Turns off for no reason while watching and other remotes would cause it to react. Lost hours of recordings because of...

DITTO!!!!!!!!!

 

I bought this version last year, in October of 2005, for about $150.00. Nothing was intuitive, and the manual was adequate at best. That being said, I bought it primarily to record from TV and it did a passable job. The quality of most recordings was ...

decent as a DVD player, accepts different formats

slow to load, confusing menu, periodic operating glitches

Great machine,,,,,does it all for the price

 

Great machine,,,,,does it all for the price

This unit cost me $140 and was in my budget to get a 4 year plan and it's one of the best component products I've bought. This has everything for the price. More speed modes than the more expensive models. 1, 2, 2 1/2, 3, 4, 6 and 8. Try to top that?...

Philips / Magnavox DVD Recorder

I have owned two of these recorders, both were refurbished. The first one failed (DVD+R would not come out) in about 4 weeks. I returned it to philips and they sent me a higher quality, brand new, DVD Recorder in about three weeks. However, I did not...

Junk! Junk! Junk!!!!!

 

I bought this recorder back in November 2005. It was the most user unfriendly piece of electronic equipment I have ever encountered. Had to call 3 times before someone was able to explain how to hook up the system and get it up and running. It then ...

Cannot think of a single one

A Decent Buy, Except...

 

Our 1st DVD recorder. Some headaches when attempting to initially set this unit up in our multi-component system. Not for the techno-challenged, for sure. 800# manufacturer hotline no help at all, won't explain how to hook up with various components ...

Easy to Use, Great Recordings

Difficult to set-up in a multi-component system ; No longer serviceable
