We purchased this product for about $200. All we wanted was something to convert our home videos to DVD's. We didn't want or need anything fancy, had no interest in recording TV to DVD - we don't watch much TV anyway, and all of our commercial VHS Tapes were converted to DVD a long time ago.
It was about a month old when the disc drawer wouldn't close. We sent it back for $12.00 and got it back about 2 weeks later. We tried it out and it seemed to work fine. Our project to convert our VHS library was put on hold due to other priorities.
Now, here we are - I've burned 5 - FIVE - DVD's and now it won't take another recordable DVD. I put a commercial DVD in, and it says disc error - DVD cannot be played nor recorded.
I'm in for a fight with Sony.

I am completely satisfied with the ease and function of this VCR/DVD Combo Recorder. I have already transfered most of my VHS recordings to DVD and it couldn't have been easier. The Sony RDR-VX555 automaticly senses the different recording segments and places an index on the DVD. It is so easy to find special recorded segments for quick and easy access to desired recordings. The quality of the picture to my HD Monitor allows me to watch great quality picture of older pre-recorded VHS movies and standard DVD's I can give my BluRay player a rest.
The only thing I wish I could do is a high speed dubbing capability. This would speed up the process of re-recording my VHS copies to DVD.

Player freezes up.
I purchased this player recorder for my wife at Best Buy.
She is very pleased with the recorder function and how easy it is to
convert VHS to DVD.
But, after about an hour or so of playing a DVD the player momentarily freezes up.
I tried different factory recorded DVDs.
I paid $50 for the best Buy warranty. I took it back to Best Buy for repair.
After They had it for 2 weeks they called us to inform us that they had to send it to Sony. 2 weeks after that we were informed that it was ready for us to pick up.
Best Buy said that Sony replaced the"Loader". We got it home, after being in repair for a month. The problem was still there! After playing a DVD for about an hour it intermittently locks up. I am very frustrated.
