Panasonic DMR-E55K Progressive-Scan DVD Recorder/Player , Black
Idiot proof DVD
I have a hard time with light switches; yet, I had no problem with this machine.  The automatic set-up worked flawlessly, and the manual provided allowed me to quickly record my old VHRs onto DVD-R media.  I record sports events on DVD-RAM which allows me to take advantage of all the features this modestly priced unit affords.  If I can make this thing work, anyone can.
