Cons Records HD widescreen, but only on DVD-RAM; DVD-RAM is proprietary, very few drives recognize; system locks up once a week, misses scheduled recordings because of it; HDMI output to TV has intermittent signal on September 3, 2009 by Jazzed7  | Read full review

Cons It very sensitive. Once you set your schedule, if you change it the unit gets flaky. The disk acts like its full. it freezes. sometimes it will record and sometimes it wont. it takes a while for the channels to catch up to the button pushed. on July 22, 2009 by denny004  | Read full review

Cons The biggest issue I have is that it is unable to copy over air digital signals over the air to VHS and that is one reason I purchased it. I will atttempt to copy over air digital to DVD. This recording was important for other members of the family. on April 2, 2010 by Larhart1  | Read full review

Cons ROYAL PITA T0 USE / FREQUENTLY FREEZES

Ever so slow, manual is a nitemare. Not at all user friendly. on March 7, 2010 by Escorial-Green  | Read full review

Cons One month after the warranty expired, the machine froze up with an unretrievable disk in the DVD drive. I followed Panasonic's troubleshooting instructions, but the reset button did nothing, and the unit shut down briefly, and then turned itself on. on January 22, 2010 by TV_Junkie  | Read full review

Cons Remote has no Mute button. Channel surfing is slow (use "Favorites" button instead). Slow turn-on (there's an option for faster start-up, but setting this feels like leaving a laptop computer running all the time). on June 23, 2009 by lmjj83  | Read full review

Cons Manual confusing...wife had to explain!! on July 27, 2008 by rioone  | Read full review

Cons The unit constantly malfunctions. It is very slow to accept and register settings. It can take 5-10 minutes to power on just to insert or change disk. It frequently must be unplugged and allowed to reset. on March 20, 2012 by JAJNCE  | Read full review

Cons The unit is very slow to start, though it initially was faster. Hear one cannot record digital antenna TV broadcasts on September 16, 2011 by currter  | Read full review

Cons absolutely will not record anything off the composite and s video inputs to dvd so recording from tv is definitely out. Only records to vhs from it. So, you have to record to vhs and then copy from vhs to dvd. takes 4 hours for most football games that w on July 14, 2011 by Togegawa  | Read full review

Cons Won't copy store bought movies to DVD on November 23, 2010 by mike17660  | Read full review

Cons Can't record anything it considers HD quality. Changing TV channels is an obsolete nightmare. First response is to jump to fast forward but it will stay set for a moment but jump back and forth and your never sure which channel it will settle on. on October 23, 2010 by stevecramer2  | Read full review

Cons Frequent freezing up, makes a grunting noise, won't read disks unless pristine, we have to clean every rental disk. on September 18, 2010 by housfrauski  | Read full review

Cons Both units died very quickly. One died the first week after warranty and the second died five weeks after first powered up. Both were identical failures. The unit would cycle from on to off and back to on continousily.t. on June 23, 2010 by cleml  | Read full review

Cons Digital tuning slow, moving up and down channels, unit would jump to wrong station then correct itself. No electronic program guide I could find. Gave up finding close captioning (I am deaf) button. Too flaky so returned it to store next day. on June 2, 2010 by disapointed12  | Read full review

Cons Very buggy, forgets to record programmed events, very slow to activate, locks up and needs constant re-booting, inconsistant operations, difficult owner's manual, too much VHS audio static and jumpy picture. on May 15, 2010 by Cats Meow  | Read full review

Cons Afraid to turn on my Mitsubisih (software driven) HDTV with it hooked up to it. Evervrything goes haywire! on July 30, 2011 by clotze12  | Read full review
