Lite-On AllWrite LVW-5005 DVD/CD Recorder
Easy to use recorder
We are very pleased with this model. Our first one worked for a day and then died with the hello stuck on the display. I had to take it apart to get my DVD out of the drive. I took it back and exchanged for another one. The second one was fine and it has many improvements over the LVW-5101 model we own and still use. The clock keeps time (the 5101 gained time). The remote is reliable to use (the 5101 was flakey) The recording is reliable (the 5101 would randomly start recording on its own for no reason). The easy guider menu is a dream to use, so simple. When setting up timed events you can still see the picture of what's playing on tv. We found it for 165.00 canadian and I recommend it highly. I must admit the LiteOn was not our first choice because of the quirks the 5101 had. We had tried the Cyberhome and took it back. (see that review as to why). I used Amazon to check out other reviews and I decided to give LiteOn another chance and I am glad I did.
