Reviewed by Sven on 25/04/2009 I must also wonder how LG stay in business manufacturing rubbish. The RC185 is a solid, well-designed and seemingly quality unit, but only the VCR works (and very well, I must admit, no agro there!) But that blasted DVD/CD steadfastly refuses to work. I do notice the laser is very strong, it lights THROUGH the DVD/CD's I put in it, no other Cd or DVD I've had does that, the light is supposed to bounce back off the silver surface, not go through it. Maybe this is the 'burn' mode, for recordable's, maybe it's a software/ROM fault, it won't play if it think's it's supposed to be recording. Guarentee-work from the big sales-outlets is notoriously bad, service impossible, for many makes, not just LG, to be fair. Save your time and nerves and don't bother. A shame, for as said, the LG RC185 is an apparent quality unit. To blow it because they have a non-existant quality-control and a faulty manufacturing/programming process they don't know about or care less about is a complete mystery to me. My best buy was a new CD player, to replace my 15 year-old Teac CDP-3500. An el-cheapo Philips DVP3120 for 40 bucks. It works perfectly, plays CD's great, even DVD's, sounds great, crisper than the aging Teac. Don't buy expensive stuff, is my advise. I'll just have to hope my old tapes last my lifetime....

Reviewed by Ruth on 12/08/2008 After about 6 months, the tray started jamming. Now it seems to have a major fault with the tray getting stuck (as though it hasn't got enough strength to eject properly), but it ALSO has a electrical fault in that it is constantly spitting the discs out. I've been trying to insert a DVD for over 20 minutes now and thought I'd surf the net to see if anyone else had the same problem whilst I get trying to persuade it to accept the disc! I've found lots of bad reviews, but no ideas yet. Plus it STILL hasn't kept the disc in for longer than 10 seconds!!! This really is a fine looking peice of junk. Rating:    
Reviewed by Chrissy on 21/04/2008 What a load of rubbish I have had mine for 12 month's and am getting the same problem "no disc or unknown disk". All I can say is don't waste your money on this rubbish. Rating:    
Reviewed by Mori on 24/11/2007 I bought my LG RC185 for two years ago. It was ok in 6 months. I get just massage as "no disc or Unknown disc" nowadays. I made it to regionfree to solve the problems but it was more wasting of the money on this rubbish. I am just woundering how LG can accept that level of technic in long term? It digs its own grave!!!

Reviewed by Angie on 12/07/2007 I bought this DVD Recorder in April 1996, hardly used it, started playing up 6 months ago, saying no disc when disc inserted, then it would only stay on for 5 seconds, would not eject disc, play a dvd, you cant go into menu or anything as the thing wont stay on long enough to be able to do anything. So after spending £256.00 on this heap of rubbish thats only fit for the bin. So DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY like I have Rating:    
Reviewed by Karabo on 01/04/2007 I bought the machine and it worked fine for about three months. It then started giving me a 'Unknown disc format' message with some of my DVD+RW. I thought it was the quality of my DVD+RW but I bought better quality ones and now the problem has progressed to 'No Disc'. This happens regardless of any DVD format (movies or recorded DVDs) inserted. If anyone can help with a solution, I'd gladly appreciate it. Rating:
