This unit is very easy to operate. My purchase of this machine was prompted by my satellite provider being unable to reach an agreement with my local channel owner (or vice-versa), who owns five of my six major local stations! After the installation of a simple antenna and the purchase of this machine, I was amazed to see how many TV stations I was able to pick up for free. The recordings made on this device are as good as the incoming signal, in HD mode! Programming is easy, and hookup is very simple. The only negative is that it's not as "smart" as the machines provided by the satellite or cable carriers. For example, this machine cannot be programmed to record all the episodes of a particular program. You'll need to do that manually. That's a small price to pay for the independence and convenience of owning your own recording machine and being able to receive television for free! The upside is that you have the option of recording directly to a DVD or the built in hard drive. Thus, I recommend this machine highly.Read full review
I bought this HDD/DVD recorder as a backup to my HDD/DVD recorder (same model) because I love my recorder so much that I wanted to be sure to have one if my current one broke. It's great for recording movies and other programs off the air (and previously from Directv). It's easy to make new DVDs from the recordings.

Purchased this unit to replace an ageing Phillips unit. The system is easy to navigate, recording programs and playback. Producing DVD copies to save for later use are easy. This unit has massive storage over 1000 hours, playback is very high quality.
I started buying the Magnavox DVR’s in 2012, and some of them last a long time, some don’t because of inferior parts being used on the power supply. I still have the original DVR robot in 2012 and it’s a real workhorse, never had a single problem with it with the exception of having to run a lens cleaner on the DVD periodically. I have two dead DVRs one is a 500 GB, and the other is a 1 TB model. Are used to be certified electronic technician and even ran my own repair shop for about 10 years. I still have those skills but my arthritis makes it difficult for me to do certain things. But I am going to give it a try.
