 Oh Dear July 28, 2010
R. LONG (Hull, UK)
I too have one of these things still occupying space. The good news is, despite the noise, it still works as a freeview receiver - at the moment. The bad news is it does nothing else. It won't record now, even though function lights inexplicably show at random. It wiped all the recorded progammes in the library informing that the 'files were corrupt'. They had worked fine - but no more. It's dead. And the 'corrupt file' message is of course bull for 'this machine is crxp'.
As for the good reviews - I would have written one just like those a few weeks back. Sadly I feel most of those happy viewers (some maybe already) will be eventually dissapointed by this piece of junk. Complete waste of money.
AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE July 24, 2010

1. the constant drone of the fan keeps me awake at night, it HAS to be unplugged !
2. when plugged back in, box will reload, then will decide to reset itself at random during viewing
3. when flicking through the channels it does not display the number of the channel, i like to see the no. so i can remember it (not much to ask)
4. memory gets filled with unwanted adverts
5. recordings often missed/deleted without warning
6. the box will now not record at all, i'm pleased i can now launch in the nearest skip
7. need i go on
Dont buy! You have been warned... June 23, 2010
Jason (Birmingham, UK)
I used to own one of these boxes and I'm writing this reveiw to warn anyone thinking of buying one.
This is the biggest piece of rubbish i have ever owned and wish it broke earlier, its that bad.
It was dismal in almost everything it did. It missed countless recordings, series record would
randomly record and the following week miss a recording, programs on the HD would't play,
recordings would 'disappear', it was so loud I had to move it out of my bedroom, constant mistimed
recordings (sometimes by up to 15mins). It would just switch itself of and not come back on again
untill you unplugged it at the mains etc etc.
These are just a few of the problems, believe me there are countless more. I wont bore you
with all of them just read some of the other reveiws! I must add though top up tv is an absoult
joke and waste of money, please whatever you do, dont go near it.
In the end the HD broke completly, all the recordings were wiped and it never worked again
(2 weeks after the warranty expired)
I now own a Humax after reading favourable reveiws and its one of the best things I've ever
bought! Do yourself a favour and get one and they are very resonably priced compared to
the more expensive sony's etc. Its absolutly silent, never freezes, basically does eveything
perfectly well and has loads of brilliant features.

well what can i say, this item was very cheap to buy and well i have no problems what so ever with the item its as good as brand new but at a fraction of the original price....
dont be worried buy the fact that it is a recondition unit, you will not be able to tell the difference.
 ok, but !!! May 20, 2010

arrived very quickly, when box was opened digi box had screws missing out of case, second tuner didn't work first tuner worked but lost channels and had to reboot several times.. got intouch to return for refund but because i had it over 14 days could only exchange ( if you buy as a gift as i did you need to test it as soon as it arrives ) got the exchange box quickly again.. when ordering replacement box i asked for it to be tested before being sent out, this seems to be the way to do it as this one works perfectly . you pay your money you take your chance but the box we got now works like a dream especially for the price..
