Panasonic PV-VD4743S Progressive Scan DVD/VCR Combo
Played OK until it broke
This was an OK model until the VCR part stopped working a little after a year.  I made the mistake of taking it to a Panasonic authorized repair shop where they charged me almost as much as I paid in the first place to fix it.  It also took them about 2 months to fix.  The sad thing is that within 6 months later it had the same problem. <br /> <br />Since all of the combo players available anymore appear to be pieces of crap made over in Asia I bought a Sony from a retailer that offers an extended warrantee.  I figure the extra cost is less then the cost of a repair or a new one, and I will be very surprised if it still works in three years.
