Good Investment
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a small TV that I used to hook up cable boxes to. For as much as it's used - the cable boxes weren't worth it. The TV still has a picture tube which means I needed the convertor box. It's great. I get 40 channels, a program guide, I know what the show is about.

DVR CHALLENGES
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It does the job for the money. It could definitely be more user friendly. I have had to unplug and reset a few times because it locks/freezes up for some reason. I will look for another option next time if they haven't made some improvements with a new model.

Faulty receiver.

Fair product
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does ok as a converter box. Recorder not as easy. Seems to work great until it is something we really wanted to watch. Then playback is a little unpredictable. Watching playback of a football game was not smooth and it would crash if we tried to fast forward more than 2x thru commercials. The instruction manual is worthless.

Save your money
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Biggest piece of garbage. The first one I bought lasted over a year. Not bad for the price I guess. I bought two more in June 2024 so I would have a spare when the next one died. Anticipating getting at least a year out of each one. It's now November 1st 2024 and both converter boxes have died. Unbelievable. Looking at the reviews of other brands, they all seem to have the exact same problems, voices out of sync with picture, then one day, nothing. I would have thought a company like Best Buy would sell a better product. Save your money.

My Kitchen appliances were below everyone else, delivery was on time and installation professional as it gets. Customer Service is second to none. Thanks to all!

Very clumsy & clunky interface
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It recorded over-the-air TV shows, but the reception wasn't as good as it is without the unit, and, even worse, the user interface was so clumsy & clunky to use that it was too frustrating. The fast forward function didn't really work at all. I had to return it to the store.
