Decent for what it its, don't expect it to move mountains, but it will play tv (and most importantly for me span it over 3 monitors).

I gave it a good try and it just wasn't compatible with my computer. If you are good and maybe above average with computers I would recommend this for you.

It works great at finding stains and allowing recording of tv shows. I had no troubke sting up a recording session. Playback did not let me jump ahead past commercials.

Bought this to use on my Xbox One, seems to work well as a tuner, at least as well as can be allowed in my rural area but that isn't this device's fault.

I know it's supposed to be portable but it would be nice if it were offered in some sort of little box for desktop use.

Not to ready to use one it was set up. Didn't like the idea of having cords hanging out the tv. Would probably get the next model up next time.

I wasn't impressed with this product. The software seemed out of date and it froze up a lot. I returned and haven't bought a replacement yet.
