Panasonic DVD-recorder £199@Boots

scattycat_3

Boots is selling the Panasonic 55 dvd-Ram recorder at around half price. Instore, so Triple Points (2397) makes it £176ish and any other points deals you can find should bring the price down further. Maybe a special local evening session if you are lucky

Details from Additions where it is £329 on three weeks delivery

These can record around 9 hours on one double sided DVD-RAM disk.

Single sided discs on BOGOF @ Argos £14.99 for 10

The Boots point offers could bring it down less than £120 see cheaper Ipod thread, but you have to go to the Store  to get this.

Are they any good and more importantly easy to use, thinking of getting one as a pressie for my folks.

The discs are cheaper at Costcos if you have a card, beats trying to get Argos staff to see sense and realise they do actually have BOGOF offer on them, thats the hassle I had when went into the stores anyway

Panasonic are one of the original manufacturers od dvdrs. I got mine over a year ago. As simple as working a vcr.

I've had my multi-region E55 a year too.

Panasonic ones are a must due to the time slip feature.

You can watch one programme you have already recorded whilst recording another or watch a programme you are half way though recording from the beggining without waiting for the programme to end.

Just looking at the Trade Counter in https://www.richersounds.co.uk and they have DMRE55's for £173, so the price from Curry's is VG (assuming it already includes the 10% off), but Egg Card holders can get an additional 5% off via https://www.egg.com/cashback

The only problem is that you cannot use the RAM discs in other DVD players.

The DVD+RW recorders are better, as they use re-writeable discs that can be used in most DVD players.

I am pleased with it, Im not techy minded but i manage to record and use the video plus, so it must be easy.
