    Purchased on 7/23/2019. Used for about 2 hours a day. Stopped working on 8/10 - no lights, no signal, no nothing. Tested in multiple outlets in different rooms. Brought it to the store on 8/13 and it's "too late" to return it. Yet the box says "1 year warranty". VERY disappointed in both the product and the store response.

    Plugged it in, fired it up and Presto. With a tabletop "rabbit ears" antenna, plenty of stations found and locked in on.

    This product didn't live up to the description it says it will record two shows but it would only do one and it's picture would not fit the screen now matter what I did, so I returned it and bought a Tablo with 4 channels.

    This allows you to record TV shows on a USB Thumb Drive. 2.0 works but 3.0 gives better quality. This box is for someone watching TV OTA with an outside antenna.
