Philips HDRW720 DVD Recorder with 120 GB Hard Drive
Not the greatest
I bought this for only $199 at costco and it sounded like a great deal.  One of the few advantages is the price, you won't find another DVD-R with a Hard Drive for this price.  Disadvantages:  <br />It does not record High Definition channels <br />Takes more than a couple of seconds to turn itself on <br />My unit would shutdown by itself sometimes <br />The audio had static on some channels (may be it was just my unit) <br />It claims to play all types of DVD-R + and -, but half of all I tried did not play <br />Tha manufacturer's website does not offer much useful information besides the owner's manual which already came with the unit <br />I took mine back and got a DVR unit from my cable provider instead which actually records HD channels, the picture is perfect.  The downside of this is that I have to pay $10 a month for it but hopefully in a year the price of good quality DVD-R with HD will have come down dramatically. <br />Do not purchase this product if you can afford one of better quality.
