Written on: 23/12/2008 by tutlebabt

It functioned well, when it was working. The converting of VCR tapes to DVD, worked fine and copies were clear. The unit had no reliability. After less than a year, the system started functioning inconsistently. It swallowed a disc and would not open. I returned to the manufacture for repair.

It functioned well for about 6 months, then went on the fritz again and would not copy VCR tapes to DVD, and just kept saying all the discs on which I was attempting record, were not... (read more)

Written on: 19/09/2008 by Minz34 (1 review written)

Can't get it to playback. Only plays back juttering, snowy , no pictures or sounds. It does seem to record onto the disk, I can see it in Direct Navigation and I can delete it. I wish I got a different DVD recorder. (read more)

Good quality machine with nice features, good looks. Recommended (replaced by DMR-ES15). Can link up with FREEVIEW to record digital channels as 'line input' so not affected by the digital revolution! (read more)

Written on: 05/11/2007 by Panasonic10

I found the Panasonic DMR-ES10 to be very bad. Will never buy another Panasonic make on the recorders. In fact, not another Panasonic full stop (given that the freeview box we has also had problems after 9 months) Did not read my discs after 18 months - spent 30mins at least to find a disc that it will read. Then when I put the disc I wanted to see, it won't read any more. Waste of money. Nearly GBP200, I would expect the recorder to work for at least 4 years. Bought a another model... (read more)

“I bought the Panasonic DMR-ES10 DVD recorder about 2...”

Written on: 12/03/2006 by PeteHolt (3 reviews written)

I bought the Panasonic DMR-ES10 DVD recorder about 2 months ago. This is my first DVD recorder, but I am very impressed. The whole unit has a well built look and feel. The video quality is very good. The poorest setting will record 8 hours on an ordinary single sided 4.7Gb disc, but it is still superior to VCR. It has a clever Flexible Recording feature which will automatically record at the maximum possible quality to fill the space left on the disc.

Unlike some players it plays most... (read more)
