1.0 out of 5 stars Stay away from this !!, June 24, 2006
This review is from: Sylvania DVR-90VG Progressive Scan DVD Recorder/VCR Combo (Electronics)
I didn't purchase this through Amazon but my experience may be valuable to anyone thinking of buying it. I bought this solely to convert my family VHS tapes (created with my VideoCam) to DVD. It did a good job for the first ten tapes. Then every single tape after that gave me an error that said I was trying to copy commercially protected tapes. I couldn't convert anymore family tapes. I called the Sylvania help desk but they were helpless. I returned the unit and ordered another one, hoping I had a defective unit. I got the new unit and the convert failed on the first tape. Not only that, any tape I tried to play was unviewable, the tapes flickered constantly. The same tapes played fine on my other VCR player.

This unit apparently has some kind of bug in its design and also a problem in its tape playback. Do not purchase it if you are looking to convert your VHS tapes to DVD.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sylvania model #POS, June 26, 2008
This review is from: Sylvania DVR-90VG Progressive Scan DVD Recorder/VCR Combo (Electronics)
I didn't buy mine through Amazon, but I want to take every opportunity to warn people away from the rip-off that is this piece of junk. Like the other reviewer, we began converting VHS tapes to DVDs. We at least got further along than he/she did, but it eventually stopped recognizing blank DVDs. Well, we thought, at least we still have the DVD player functionality. Wrong. The machine now refuses to play any commercial DVD with copy protection (read: 99% of them).

If you're driving along the I-5 near San Diego sometime soon and you see one of these fly out of a car window, honk and say "hello."

1.0 out of 5 stars The DVD player works, but don't try and dub VCRs, October 6, 2009

This review is from: Sylvania DVR-90VG Progressive Scan DVD Recorder/VCR Combo (Electronics)
Like the other reviewers, I have never gotten a single VCR to DVD dub to work. I have owned this for several years and the DVD player portion has worked OK. But now when I finally got around to use the record/dub features, it is useless. My Memorex -R 16x DVDs always give a "not a recordable disk" error. I tried a bunch and now give up.
