Gets the job done!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an okay box for analog to digital tv reception but doesn’t respond as well as my last box and recording to a flash drive is more difficult. Overall not a bad box for the money and it was accessible when I needed a new box on short notice.

Excellent value
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This works extremely well while paired with my projector. It gives many more channels than with just a built in tuner for a television. Worth very much more than the price point posted! Excellent addition to a cable cutter ideaology!

Great DVR for OTA Channels
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive tried several dvd systems in order to record Ota channel, this device produces the best quality. While, not the easiest to use due to recording having to bet set up 24 hour format.

It does what it's supposed to. Fairly old product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The box worked fine but in process of getting the remote fixed or repaired. The buttons on far left side quit working. Fairly old product so it's manufacturer discontinued. I will update or send new review after repairs.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Aluratek Digital Converter with digital recorder works great. Needed it for a motor home with a tv that would only work with a converter and Best Buy had just what we needed. Works great and is easy to use. Would definitely recommend

Should have done this long ago.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were tired of the poor performance and fees from our cable provider, this unit allows us to bring in over the air programing to our older analog TV, simple set up and has performed flawlessly.

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.

Good dvr for over the air channels
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased with this little device. Works as described. Great for recording on usb stick and provides guide for over the air channels. HDMI cable provides great HD view, not so much with RCA.

Broadcast Over the Air digital Tuner
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This box is great and easy to use. Just need to find a decent rabbit ears antenna to bring in all local channels. I got this because Directv, as good as it is, does not carry all our local broadcast channels, and some of them are really fun to watch.

Life Saver
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was tasked with figuring out how to play the Super Bowl on our computer controlled four 120” monitor system at work for a massive company Super Bowl party. No cable or satellite available. I used an over the air antenna and this converter to great success. It’s amazing In this digital age how many times I’ve needed an RF signal coax to HDMI connection.

Great option, easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my Vizio monitor that did not have a built in tuner. Easy set up, worked great, but decided to go with AirTv to integrate Sling so I returned it, but if I would not have gone that direction would have definitely kept it.

Do NOT Buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you require something that you don’t expect to last long, by all means buy one of these. The unit will consistently drop channels that were working and require a total Re-Tune. Ultimately, it will fail. I got one of these that eventually crashed and returned it to the store. I was forced to pay the HIGHER Price value of the unit even while under warranty. The replacement just crashed. Don’t buy this.

Poor DVRS
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very confusing to use. The time appears to be correct, but it records programs at a different time than set. The unit has locked up once with no response to either the remote or the on/off switch on the unit. I had to unplug it overnight before it would even start again. The manual is very confusing and doesn't match up with the controls. I'm just about to give up on it.
