Panasonic DIGA DMR-EZ17K

Other than the fact that this recorder just plain performs, it also has a feature you will not find on any other model from any other manufacturer: Flexible Record. It allows for a variable recording time format. In other words, let's say you want to...

Does not respond to my remote. Does not respond to on/off switch. Does not play music CD. Does not work!!! Mine fail within a year.

This DVR is the worst electronic appliance I have ever purchased in my life. Channel changes take number of seconds, probably 2-3 at best. The unit is noisy to the point where watching a DVD is distracting. Startup takes ages - probably about 10...

After contacting Panasonic for the firmware update necessary to make the unit actually record (it seems that a factory refurb'd unit would have the factory update, but alas..) the unit records great. When I can find a DVD-RAM disk I'm eager to try the...

I bought an older model three years ago, and I love it, but I "upgraded" to this model for the digital tuner. In three years, my old model never missed a timer recording, but this one misses very often. It is so bad, that I record the same show on...

I just had to write a review to counter some of the bad reviews out there. This item is not without its' quirks, as many people have noted, but it's great at what it does. And what it does is make great recordings. When I got fed up with DirecTV and...

I love the Panasonic DMR-EZ17K DVD recorder. I was able to set it up without any problem (I am technically challenged) and record my home movies from my Hi 8 cassette tapes to the DVDs. I was able to do 11 years worth, onto approximately 32 DVDs,...
