JVC DRMV1S Progressive-Scan DVD Player/Recorder and VCR Combo , Silver
Unreliable
I wish I would have seen reviews before I bought this item just after it was introduced.  I have a unit that was manufactured in March of 2004.  Less than a year later the power unit died.  Coverage is one year on parts and only 90 days on labor...repair was $35 for the part and over $100 for labor. DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT AS IT APPEARS MANY OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED POOR RELIABILITY AS I HAVE.  IF YOU DO BUY THE UNIT, BUY IT ONLY WITH EXTENDED WARRANTY.  I never take the extended warranty coverage as I know it is a profit center for retailers, but this should have been an exception.  Consumer Reports rates this unit highly, but they must not have the repair record on this specific unit.
