Philips DVP3340V DVD VCR Combo

The unit was easy to hook up and instantly ready to use. So far no problems. Wanted a DVD player (with VHS combo) that would play all DVD formats; this one did. Good purchase transaction.

I've given this unit quite a work out over the last few months and it hasn't skipped a beat. Off hand, I can't think of a better bang for your buck!

A refurbished unit of this model was purchased for me as a gift. It is easy to set up. It is a DVD player and a VHS recorder/player. I am not so much bothered by the lack of a TV tuner as I was not having a display to tell me the tape location of the VHS, which is handy when you are recording on tape from the TV. I had a Panasonic that split up the recordable area of the tape into five sections, beginning to end.

As my title suggests, even more distressing was the fact that the DVD player quit recognizing DVDs a year after I received it. I tried using several wet and dry cleaners to no avail. I can still play them on my computer, so I know the DVDs are not the problem. The VHS player still works.

As I indicated, it is a refurbished unit, so this opinion should not carry as much weight as those for units bought as new items. Nevertheless, my experience was not a good one.

I returned this as I could not hook it up to my older TV.
If I was shown the 'back' of the product I would not have ordered it.
