I WISH THEY HAD NO STARS TO RATE!

I bought one of these Brand New in January 2005. Catagory was changed to begin with remanufactured, so all of the original ratings are no longer listed. I feel bad anyone considering this unit can't read those. When I first rated it I gave it 2 stars. Many others like me left ratings & feedback, very difficult to operate and many problems with cannot read disc. Dubbing was very confusing to operate and a real pain. In addition the tracking adjustment was nothing but grief. Finally I needed a new DVD cartridge at a cost of more than $400.00 so I threw it in the dumpster. Best thing that ever happened to me. I am not someone who can afford to have bought such a poor product. I assume must can't either. I bought 7 months ago a Panisonic DMR-ES40V. I paid under $250.00 Brand New with a 2 year replacement warranty for $29.99. It has none of the previous problems and also has auto tracking which DVD and VCR units have had for more years than I can remember. SO THE NEWER UPDATED UNIT IS GREATLY IMPROVED AND A GREAT PRICE! WHY DID I BUY ANOTHER PANISONIC? I NEEDED TO FINALIZE MY MANY RECORDED DVD's TO PLAY ON ALL DVD PLAYERS.

A machine that makes excellent copies,and is easy to use..

When you buy a refurbished unit,you never know what you are getting...Sometimes returned or damaged units are repacked,and sent off to the next customer...At times a product is damaged in shipping,hence a unit is received doa,with broken parts,thanks to shippers throwing the box around 10 feet from the truck to the sidewalk smashed...In other words buying reburbished is a roll of the dice at best...This is my experience with reburbished products,including the dmr-75VS...My unit works well and,makes excellent copies,and easy to use...I bought the unit reburbished,only because,they ran out of new units,as the unit was rated quite well in consumer reports...MY advice is "only buy this from a dealer with a good return -refund policy."

remanufactured product

I bought a remanufactured Panasonic DMR-E75VS Progressive-Scan DVD Recorder/VCR Combo which came to me ... broken. The DVD
tray was not going to open at all. I got really mad and depressed and sent it back. I got refund for this stuff and bought a new Panasonic DMR ES30VS, which is great.
