Died after 2 years

I bought a DMR-EZ17 in 2007. It's been buggy (freezing up and needing a reset) even after I applied a firmware upgrade I got from Panasonic. If you're getting a signal over the air (antenna), weak signals cause it to lock up as well. Today it died...

My Panasonic DMR-EZ17 dvd recorder has broken down for the third time in 18 months. It was repaired twice under warranty, this time it will cost $139 plus shipping. When it worked, it worked well, but it's headed for the trash this time. The dvd...

More than I wanted

I am satisfied with this DVD recorder and only wish that I had the technical skills to operate it to its fullest. My limited understanding of the differences of formats shouldn't reflect upon the device. I do wish it would load more quickly, but the...

Happy Customer

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. I was also happy to...

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 hooked it up, and it easily tuned in all my cable TV channels, was able to...

Broke within three weeks

I received this unit from Panasonic after another Panasonic DVD recorder broke down after six months. I have had it for three weeks and now the eject button does not work. Panasonic wants me to send it in for repairs. My advice, after many years as...

Inferior to DMR ES-15

 

Inferior to DMR ES-15

I bought this unit for the digital tuner. It replaces my similar Panasonic DMR ES15. Basically except for the tuner, setup, operation and remote are the same, so for me it was easy and works beautifully. I use only DVD-RAM and had no problems, although...
