Costco - Toshiba DKR2

[cie3]

I am new to this forum and doing some reading and research about buying a DVD recorder which I want to buy very much.

Can anyone tell me what the model equivalent is to the Toshiba that Costco is selling currently? Costco's Tosh model # is the DKR2...what is the same model and model # that an Amazon or a Best Buy would have?

I tried to ask their customer service for more information but did not get anywhere.

Thanks for any advice...

Above link is to Toshiba's web site. The model numbers are set by the manufactures no a selling retailer? The Toshiba model number "D-KR2" should be the same from costco, sams, bestbuy... ect, if they carry that model number.

Thanks...has anyone here had any good/bad experiences with this machine....I had thought the club stores sometimes have different model numbers for various items.

I have a model D-R2 and it's awesome! It's loaded with features and does an excellent job all the way around.

BUY IT!!!

Costco carries the D-KR2 for $250. The toshiba web page shows the D-KR2 = D-R2 AFAIK.

Searching Amazon for D-R2 gives 7 or so reviews .
FWIW ecost carries the unit for $250 plus $7 handling fee and no tax for most people in the USA.

Supposedly they don't record from HBO/Cinemax since they went to copy once protection.

Yes..did read that elsewhere re the copy once protection..thank's for the reminder...still in the prebuying research phase...

Everyone has given me good advice. Thanks again. E
