Philips DVDR985 Progressive-Scan DVD Recorder and Player
UNRELIABLE
I owned this unit for about a year.  It worked fine for awhile but then the clock became fast.  Within 2-3 weeks of setting the clock, it would become 10-15 minutes fast.  This meant all of my recordings would start and end early, and I would miss the end of shows.  Every other electronic clock in my house--from the microwave to a cheap radio alarm clock--keeps better time than this thing.  This should be obvious, but I guess no one told Philips: When you build a recording device, it's critical that the clock be accurate.
