    I bought this converter to replace another (different brand) that was starting to fail. I used my existing digital antenna and connected to our analog TV. It works great.

    Bought this so I could watch football this season ('21-22) while working on restoring a house. It was only used Sundays from around 12pm to 5 or 6pm. Now, right at 3 months of single day a week use it has died. I am an electrician so nothing that would have possibly damaged it happened. Terrible,

    The purchase price for this item was heavily discounted - as it should have been. The software is very buggy; audio and video tend to fall out of sync after changing channels, the recording function has failed at least twice, and the remote must be pointed precisely at the unit or the command may fail. A request to customer support asking if there was a software/firmware update for this unit went unanswered. Buy at your own risk.

    I purchased this to record TV shows. I am a senior citizen & tech challenged. I probably purchased the wrong item. But reading the description online, I thought it was the product that I needed for a reasonable price.

    This product is too difficult to install and operate. The owner's manual is inadequate. I have been tempted to return it but I decided to spend several more hours trying to get to second base with it.

    We bought this to put an order tv in the garage. Once I figured out how to get it programmed, it works great.

    I was looking for a digital cable converter to put on another TV. This doesn't work with cable TV. This isn't what I was looking for. Will be taking it back to the store. I wouldn't recommend it to someone looking for a cable TV digital converter. Not sure what this is used for exactly.

    works great. i broke the port for the coaxial cable to plug in my antenna. this wasn't costly and works great. definitely a must buy if you looking to drop cable.

    It’s very basic but the price can’t be beat. Couple it with an antenna and you’ve got all of your major networks covered plus a sprinkle of other stuff too.

    I was unable to get it to work on my olderm TV set. You were required to get into the TV set to make some sort of adjustment and it would not turn on thr TV at all. I just returned it to the store as it wasnt working.

    This is my second digital recorder. It was nice when it worked, but both have lasted less than a year. It did record programs with a nice playback, bit the price is not worth the product.
