Panasonic  DMR-ES40VS VHS / DVD Recorder Silver
DVD failed within two months.
The instruction manual was difficult to read. <br /> <br />The help number rang busy every time I called. I never got through to Panasonic.  <br /> <br />The unit wrote 3 DVD's and failed on the 4th approximately 60 days after it was put in service. <br /> <br />Fortunately, I got my purchase price back. That's my one star.
