Robert Silva at About.com has provided an in-depth look at the Pioneer DVR-233-S DVD recorder, an entry-level unit that retails for around $180.
Some of the features of the DVR-233-S include recording to DVD-R, DVD-RW DVD-RW, plus playback of DVD video, DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD-RW, CD, CD-R/RW and VCD.
As with many of About.com's reviews, Robert takes the DVR-233-S through some stringent tests, including playback of selected DVDs, recording tests and comparison tests of the equipment with a variety of televisions and sound systems - plus the feature of what he did/didn't like about it, which I like to employ myself on reviews.
