Apex DRX-9200 DVD Recorder/Player
Happy So Far!!!
We purchased this DVD recorder for the rock-bottom price of $100 on Thanksgiving, as did my brother.  After reading some reviews, my brother returned his and bought the LITE-ON model and we kept ours.  We have had very few problems.  We are mostly copying home movies from our VCR.  We are using cheap no-brand DVD+R/RW discs without any real problems.  The only problem we had was playing them in our OLD DVD player (one of the first on the market!) Even then that was the DVD+RW disc and it played some of the titles, but not all. <br /> <br />The menu system is clumsy, but not worth paying more $$$ for a user-friendly menu system!!! <br /> <br />The only other complaint we have is the number of inputs.  Could use more, but again, for the cheap, cheap price we don't mind switching around cables occasionally. <br /> <br />Everything else is great!  Another brother just went the computer-DVD-recording route (very expensive)and seems to regret all the $$$ he spent and the amount of time it takes him to record a DVD.
