It is fantastic for converting your VHS library into DVD. I've had no problems in nearly two years. It's too bad Panasonic others have decided to pull the plug on hard drive DVD recorders in the North American market. This is a big mistake, do you hear me? Please bring the high-definition blu-ray machines over here soon (w/o shortcuts, must be Made in Japan please).br /br /I am also quite impressed on how much these go for, even USED (especially since I bought mine well under the MSRP). br /br /Easily 5-stars for the DMR-EH75V.

BEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCKS - Gregory Sheppard - Rockville, Md.
Bought this back in December 2006 and still am very pleased with this unit. I am guessing that this model is not being made any more but what ever the replacement for this model I would at least look up any reviews on it and I bet it has positive reviews for the most part.
