Confirmed purchaser Bargain hunter

Score 8.0/10
Good points:
Easy to use, and very quiet when in use.
Quick to power up and down.
Bad points:
Lengthy operating manual,
Only one tuner, so ideal for archiving from external media (eg PVR) to DVD/Video tape, but not for watching a different channel from that being recorded (without changing the tv input).
