Customer Reviews of Emerson 80 GB HDD/DVD Recorder/VCR Combo, EWH100F
a 1 star rating isn't a fair appraisal I bought mine with extreme reluctance but I thought well I have had some luck with other Emerson products, so just maybe....... It worked great for approx 4 months. I then noticed one day the clock was not accurate. I couldn't reset the clock. Trust me I tried multiple times. Now I'm 38 yrs old, having owned too many gadgets/electronics, I never heard of the clock going bad first. That was a sign of things to come. So I marched forward setting all my timer recordings based on "Emerson Time". That worked well for about 2 months. At that point, the clock just quit showing up as a display. So then I decided to just use it as a video cassette player. Well after 3 weeks of work, now I just don't get power going to it. I plan to recover the tape that's in there, take it out back and shoot it and vow to listen to my inner voice the next time I decide to by ANYTHING Emerson.
A Huge Disappointment... Not Worth The Headache
I have to agree with the other reviewer. I am having the exact same problem where I cannot dub what is on the DVR Hard Drive to a DVD (thankfully it happened after only 3 weeks) so am heading back to Walmart to return it this weekend. Quite a serious problem to have when you pay almost $300. It looks to me like there should be a recall issued from the manufacturer to solve this (which there isn't), but I guess Emerson figured most people would encounter the problem after the warranty was up.

>To be fair, if you just want a DVR and don't plan to put many of the recorded programs to DVD this product may be right for you. However, if you are looking to transfer lots of VHS to DVD or build up your recorded off TV collection in DVD you should avoid this item and continue your research. I spent an extra $20 to buy the Pioneer DVR-640H-S DVD Recorder with 160GB DVR (cheapest price around offered by Amazon) and it has great reviews. Will review that one once I get it and had a chance to test it out.
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT
I bought one of these from Wal-Mart. Three months later the Hard Drive went out. When trying to record a DVD from the hard drive, it would record about 3 seconds, then stop. Wal-Mart would'nt help me because it had been over 90 days. So, I sent it in to Emerson. About 4 months later, I finally got it back. It worked great for about two months, then the same thing happened. Now they are telling me they can fix it, but I have to pay for the repair. I don't think so. Save yourself a headache and do not buy this recorder, or anything from Emerson for that matter.
