Tivo Bolt is now working well

terrible system
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.do not waste your time nor money on this terrible system. It will give horrible reception. Changing of stations etc. also terrible. The remote needs to be remote and go away. The need for Tivo makes it worse. You need to pay for the service. Run do not walk away from this excuse for a great system.

Great to have OTA TV recording
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really like the ability to record OTA channels and get free movies through Amazon also - integrated into one receiver with more function than I will ever use.

Excellent product - small problems at install
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TiVo Bolt VOX was a breeze to setup, but the VOX portion did not function out of the box. Had to wait several days for a firmware upgrade to get pushed to use the voice feature. 30% faster playback mode a GREAT addition

Easy to setup but subscription cost is high

Quite a bit different from older Tivo units

Great DVR - Needs Better Menu System
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TiVo has always been a great DVR. The menu system on the older TiVo's was more intuitive and better organized. Don't quite like the new interface.

Some pros and cons
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this Tivo box to replace our old one that broke. Some features are better but some features were definitely better/faster on our old box. Also, we have an older model in our bedroom that we can't sync with this new one. We can no longer transfer programs from our upstairs Tivo box to the new one in the family room. What a bummer! Very disappointing. Shouldn't all Tivo boxes be in sync with each other! ?
