 Useless after a couple of years March 22, 2008
Elias Rodriguez (Germany)
I have various cakes of blank DVDs where some have been accepted but the majority (even from the same lot) have not been accepted - a bloody pain!!!!

Fine at first, then oh dear, so many problems. Not reading, not finalizing, jumping, loss of power, to name the most frequent. Before sending it back 2nd time brought a replacement one of another make. When it came back we gave it to our grown son, it gave him a small electic shock, thanks for that lite-on-it.

I bought the DVD recorded about a year and half ago and haven't looked back. I don't know what other customers have done to their machines, but mine continues to work perfectly. The All-Write seems fine, we were lucky enough to happen on some very cheap DVD RW discs which work. Check the Lite-On website for a list of discs it likes. Having downloaded the firmware it also handles every other region very well, including the American R1 and the South East Asian R0 / region free - it even plays odd copied discs that have refused to play on my DVD player, PS2 and PC. The channel set-up was a slight hassle and since I don't even have digital TV (just the basic 5) I wasn't too bothered. For terrestrial analogue TV even the super-long play (6 hrs per disc) is more than adequate for playback. I can't comment on how it handles digital TV or HD but I don't see why they'd be a problem. The recorded discs even play on my other DVD players. It's got Video+, it's reliable and quiet (compared to a Playstation). The only thing that's annoying is that you can't edit what you've recorded on the machine itself, but then it is pretty cheap... and you could always do that on your PC if you were desperate. I bought it to replace a VCR and would earnestly recommend the LVW-5006 to anyone after a basic DVD recorder.
Broke down after 9 months - AVOID February 21, 2007

I would urge anyone considering buying this machine to seriously consider other options. Whilst there are many good reviews of the product, I am sure that most of them were done in the first month or two of purchase. I also didn't have any problems for the first few months, other than it being noisy, which I could live with. After about 6 or 7 months, things slowly started going wrong, one thing at a time. It was rejecting more and more discs. It was not recognising discs that had previously been recorded on. Eventually after about 9 months it just stopped working as a recorder altogether. It still worked as a player. Yes, it was cheap. But if you consider that I have had to spend money on a replacement, it didn't work out cheap at all. I have replaced it with a well known and trusted brand which is far superier in every way.
 Great value. August 31, 2006

This is a great piece of kit. The system is easy to use and I have found no faults after useing for six months. There is slight noise when running but no worse than any VCR I've used. The finished recording is equally as good as the program was when originaly played. Really Great Value for Money.
