Rating: - * I'll be the oddball here. ... I got my RCA 8335 as a warranty replacement and not at Amazon.I must say my unit has performed well enough.I've recorded hundreds of programs with good results.Yes,the unit has frozen on me a few times but I just go through the ritual of -unplug and plug again and it goes back on track.I am sorry all these other people got bum units. Rating: - * PURE junk ... Had mine just over 6 months. Ate a VHS tape (still can't get it out) and DVD operation is crappy. Clock will not stay set so timer recording is not reliable. What really irritates me is that if you try to go to RCA website for service info, it automatically switches to Audiovox site, and Audiovox will send you a message that they do not service this model Rating: - * Total piece of JUNK! ... I have owned this unit for almost a year. It has given me nothing but problems from the beginning. I think all the problems with this unit boil down to the software. This unit actually has an operating system like Windows. But I am not talking about Windows XP, it's more like Windows 1.0. It crashes and freezes constantly. It has so many glitches it would take me pages to describe all of them. Just don't buy this unit. For my part I will never buy another RCA product. I have owned a few RCA products in the last 10 years and all of them have been pieces of junk. The bad thing about this unit is that you cannot even ask to exchange it for a different model because the DRC8335 is the only VCR/DVD-R combo that RCA has ever produced. Mine has died for the second time and I am now struggling with throwing it in the garbage or warranting it out again only to suffer another couple months of frustration. Rating: - * RCA VCR-DVD #8835 ... There should be 'minus' star ratings for this product. I bought this piece of junk and it wouldn't work from the beginning and I'm pretty tech savvy. Paid a repairman $80 and it worked less than one day. Warranty for return to Wal-Mart ran out and I haven't yet returned it to RCA for a replacement. ALL reviews about this product on other sites speak to its defective features. I think everyone that bought one should file a Class Action suit against RCA -- but of course I don't know how to do this. RCA DRC8335 DVD Recorder & VCR Combo With Built-In Tuner Rating: - * Don't Waste Your Time and Money ... I brought this unit less than a year ago. It took quite a bit of time to get it set up. Once I got the unit to work, I was able to to record several dvds . However, the unit is now locked up and only displays "hello" and I am unable to eject my VCR tape. After looking at several reviews, it looks like this is a common problem. Now I have the pleasure of sitting on the phone with customer service and/or having to mail the unit back. Don't waste your time or money on the DVD combo. |
