CyberHome CH-DVR 1500 Progressive-Scan DVD+R/+RW Recorder and Player , Silver
So far, so good
I received my recorder for a Christmas gift.  So far I haven't had a problem with it, although I do agree with the other reviews that state the dvd's are hot when removed after playing.  I, also, am not crazy about the 24 hour clock!!  So far I have only recorded from the tv ~ live and on timer ~ and have no complaints.  I just have to figure out the wiring of dvd player-to-dvd recorder (for copying) and vcr-to-dvd recorder.  Nothing to do with the product, I just need to get in gear!!
