Customer Review: Smokin' DVD recorder - LITERALLY!
Summary: 1 Stars
Oct 28/2009
AND now for the resolution to this problem, for a mere $80 Toshiba will replace the unit since it is no longer under a 90 day labor warranty. So, I have a unit that has never been used to record, only watch DVDs on, and it was smoking, where there is smoke there is fire, yes? And they want me to throw another $80 at it. I don't think so. Like I stated before, I will NEVER purchase another Toshiba product again. Can you say product liability? What if I had not been in the room when this player started smoking? What if I had left the house????
Obviously Toshiba does not stand by their products. So it was a $157 lesson, not a $237 lesson.
I unplugged this unit (which I might have used 7-8 months) while away on vacation for 2 weeks. Upon my return I plug it back in. Went to use it about a week later and it will not turn on with the remote. I turn the unit on using the power switch it stays on for approximately 6 seconds then turns off. I try again, it turns off. I read the manual and it mentions something about the timer, so I try again. The unit will not stay on long enough to use the remote to change the setting.
Then I smell SMOKE!!!!!!!!!! After unplugging this unit and opening the windows the smoke eventually clears. Do I pay the $70 labor rate plus shipping to send it back? Doubtful.
This is the 2nd Toshiba DVD player that I've had that has died before a year has passed. I will NEVER purchase this brand again.
