Sony SLV-D350P

Pros: Dependable and worked with all disks even computer cdroms.

Cons: None yet.

Review: I had trouble with a number of DVD players failing and not playing discs. Had to return 3 other brands that were defective. Bought this Sony and it has played flawlessly for me and my childs use also. Bought the SLV-D370P after the divorce and it has ...

Pros: Good value for a DTS DVD/VCR combo, great convenience.

Cons: Universal remote could have more options. No front video inputs.

Review: I found my SLV-350P to be very easy to hook up and use. I haven't had any DVD player problems the other reviewers wrote about, so maybe they were unlucky or Sony fixed the problem. I have also played an audio CD with no problem, but I haven't tried an ...

Pros: Been working great for years. Very fast tape rewind.

Cons: Kind of slow starting a disk, but fine once it's running.

Review: Seems all the reviews lately were negative with breakdowns, that's fair. But alot of people only write reviews because it brokedown. We have had ours for at least a few years and have had no issues. I bought it because our Panasonic HTIB dvd player quit ...

Pros: Will play a variety of disk formats including VCDs.

Cons: Programing VCR is hard.

The Bottom Line: This is okay if you want one a combo unit.

Review: I found the DVD/VRC easy to connect to my TV. It has a auto clock set feature that worked for me. This unit would work even on old TVs that only have a cable input. It comes with a universal remote control but its control would not control my ...

Pros: Name brand, digital out (coax)

Cons: Poor remote, no DVD to VHS copy capability

The Bottom Line: With the poor remote and no copy capabilities, there's no real reason to pay the extra money for this Sony vs. other brands.

Review: I had to replace a VCR that finally bit the dust and decided to get a combo unit. The Sony was a little more expensive than the others I looked at (Samsung and Philips) but I have a Sony Home Theatre system and like it. I also have a lot of home videos ...

Pros: It works with all DVD formats that is the whole reason why i boughgt this

Cons: Open disk is slow and after loading the disk it takes little time.

Review: I am using this since 5 months, The only thing i liked about this player is i can play any type of DVD disk. And now after 5 months, the dvd disk inside the player is not at all ejecting, the parts are cheap parts. I press open and it toggles ...

Pros: The VCR side works well.

Cons: The DVD side gives me lots of trouble.

Review: I received the SLV-D350P as a Christmas gift and at first it ran fairly well. I did have some problems right away with it reading -R and +R discs though, but they were intermittent. As time has passed I am now having trouble with all types of discs. ...

Pros: Space saving, fast tape rewind

Cons: Extremely slow DVD loading, ejecting. Cumbersome remote, DVD sound stopped working after one year.

The Bottom Line: Do not buy. Sony seems to be getting lazy and cheap with their product quality overall.

Review: I have had terrible luck with DVD-VCR combos. The Sony SLV-D350P that I have now was a new unit that we got in exchange for a different brand combo that we had DVD problems with in April 2005. We had purchased a Best Buy warranty luckily in Jan. 2003 ...

Pros: can't think of a pro at this point...

Cons: poor remote control design, poor mechanical design

Review: Sony failed miserably with this model. I usually trust that brand, but not anymore. The remote control is very poorly designed. After about the 8 month mark, the dvd tray seemed reluctant to open. 1 year later, the dvd tray wouldn't open at ...

Pros: Worked great for a few months.

Cons: Only worked for a few months.

Review: I had used the DVD/CD section maybe 30 hours when the sound suddenly quit (VCR section sound still works though). Had similiar bad luck with a Sony amplifier a few years back. Why pay 50% more for a name? The warranty isn't any better than the cheaper ...
