LG RH4820W DVD Recorder

Friday November 12, 2004

LG | http://au.lge.com

$1874

Price at time of review.

For those with deep pockets and big hearts, this DVD recorder comes with full PVR functionality and an 80GB hard drive.

It may be expensive, but it's a quality component and well worth treating yourself.

User Rating:

This is one of those products for those of you with the welcome combination of deep pockets and big hearts.
The RH4820W is a component for your lounge room that is able to record TV, pause live TV, play back recorded TV while you record a different station, and even burn your recordings to DVD. Yep, it's a DVD recorder with an 80GB hard drive built in and with full PVR functionality. It's also really easy to use, and extremely thin so it looks the part in the lounge. It may be expensive, but it's a quality component and well worth treating yourself.
