Could someone let me know if this dvr from Clover has good enough features for my home or is there better. Here is the specs

I asked this same question over on cctvforums but no response.

I don't know about something better for approx. the same price. That is about as **cheap** as they come with any expectance of be operational. No one here will want to advise you on anything compared with Sam's Club unless they refer you to the internet where you will find about a kazillion DVR's available. I think most here, or at the cctv group, are dealing with a much better grade of DVR than what these Wallymart-Rat Shack type stores offer and will cost about 30% higher to start depending on specifications.

Oh really. Well you would think they would at least tell me of another brand that is better for around 5 to $600 for a 4 channel. Or is that not possible with these features.

The one thing I see wrong with this unit is it dont have usb. What else?

I would rather have someone point me to another brand, than end up taking this one back.

Dishnetwork can afford to almost give stuff away since they are making money on you every month. Besides, the 721 is $549 standalone price.

You are exactly right.

Okay, how about NOT the same price. Does this mean a good no wally shack 4 channel dvr starts at $1000. If so, it has to have a great feature that makes it stand out for $467 more.

Im still trying to figure out why these are so expensive when I only paid $250 for my Dishnetwork 721 pvr new.

You have a good point there.

I lucked up and got it from them for a promotion price. Here is where I found out about it.
