Was disappointed with this item, it makes you pay for the some of the programing and the functions of the unit are not what they were suppose to be so I returned it.

I have been thinking about buying a new TiVo for quite some time. Your salesperson made it painless and gave us all of the discounts for the product and all the freebies. Thanks!

Bought and installed this for 92 yr. old woman who is not particularly tech savvy. Install and activation easy. Remote voice control very useful for her. Good product.

My second bolt, the first one just over heated and didn't work any more, so just had to get a new one. I have had other recorders, but nothing compares to the Bolt.

We like TiVo over the Comcast DVR because it will broadcast our pictures and music files from our desktop through the TiVo to our main entertainment system.

Great if you like Tivo or if you are trying to cut down cable bill. Just wish Tivo service was even cheaper.

I have owned many TiVo units over the years. Since cutting cable and using an outside antenna, I find this particular unit very useful.
