Samsung DVD-V3500 Progressive-Scan DVD/VCR Combo
Works okay, but poor controls
Bought one of these but ended up returning it.<br />On the plus side, it's a pretty well integrated unit with a consistant menu interface.  Seemed to work fine, remote has good range, would operate my TV, etc.  Decent unit.<br />The deal killer though was when I found out that some lunkhead at Samsung thought it'd be a good idea to have the fast-forward and skip-forward controls on the same button -- likewise the review and skip-backward controls share the same button.  This is true for the remote and for the console controls.  Press and hold the button to fast-forward or review, or just press &amp; release to skip-forward and skip-backward.  On the console controls I could get this to work most of the time, but fast-forwarding through a boring part of a DVD always risked skipping to the next chapter.  On the remote, it NEVER worked -- it'd only skip to the next or previous chapter.<br />Needless to say the unit went back in no time and I replaced it with the Panasonic 4743S, while although not as &quot;integrated&quot; a unit, at least works the way I figure it ought to.
