Panasonic DMR-ES15S Progressive Scan DVD Recorder
Good DVD Recorder
Went to Best Buy to replace my ancient DVD player (5 years old) and two DVD Recorders (Panasonic and Phillips) caught my eye.  Since I didn't do any research, I decided on the Panasonic since there were a couple of \\"open box\\" Phillip Recorders.  It installed it with minor issues (my fault) and I had it recording within 30 minutes.   <br /> <br />I have recorded a weeks worth of shows and I haven't had a problem.  Although there are some more complex things that you need to read the manual to understand, my wife had no problem picking up the remote and watching her shows. <br /> <br />So far so good.  If I see any long term issues, I'll update the review.
