GoVideo DVR4000 DVD-VCR Combo

I have had my unit for 3 years and have had similar problems as noted on some of the other reviews, freezing, can't read data, etc......finally had enough, could not find a service center closer than 100 miles so I sent it to the company in Scottsdale AZ for repair.....they did not even open box and read my letter, just resent it to me unopened!!! What a bunch of Jerks! Maybe they will "get it" after I e-mail a photo to them of me smashing it up with a sledge hammer in my back yard!!

I purchased this 3yrs ago. It hasnt worked properely since I bought it. It refuses to play any dvds without skipping freezing or not even "seeing" the data. Its a very bad purchase. There are many other items out there that not only work but they also have a more cooperative customers service department that are willing to help you to make sure that you are completely satisfied with spending your hard earned money.

I bought this one almost a year and a half ago in maine. I was thrilled to get a machine that didn't take up much space and is a cinch to connect. I am a military wife and we moved to Italy. We now connect it through a transformer due to the electricity and a satalite box. I am able to connect my surround sound speakers to it with ease. Very simple hookup I have not had any problems. I love this machine! Thank you GO VIDEO!

I was really excited to finally get a DVD player. But I'd only had it about a month when it started to skip scenes and freeze periodically. It wouldn't even play some DVDs that I found played perfectly on my cousin's player. While playing one DVD, it froze every few seconds. This is a horrible player, and it's obviously cheap for a reason.

I am really disappointed in this product. As the title says, I bought one and loved it. Bought a second one for living room and was happy. After about 6 mos, (of course post warranty) mine started showing all DVDs very dark and then light. You couldn't watch a DVD. VCR worked ok. Then the second one started with the same problem. I was VERY upset about this and had no recourse. So I am writing this note hoping it will stop someone else from buying one and experiencing the same problems. As I said, at the get-go the unit was terrific. I expect a DVD to last longer than these did. They were both used by adults and probably used for a max of 2-3 DVDs a week.
Did I replace mine? You bet. I bought a JVC and am happy with it. Just have to keep reading the manual to see how it all works.
Skip Go Video..... save yourself a headache in the long run!
