Customers are saying

Customers praise the Slingbox 500 for its ease of use, excellent picture quality, and reliable DVR functionality. Many appreciate the straightforward setup and smooth streaming capabilities, allowing for convenient access to their home TV from various locations. However, some users find the price point to be high and express concerns about the app's functionality and the remote control's user-friendliness. A few also mention compatibility issues with certain devices and a lack of clarity in the instructions.

    Out of town for 3-months. Thought it would be nice to watch my DVR recordings on the road. It's nice, but it seems to freeze up a lot. Every 5-10 minutes. Could be the hotel internet though. Still nice to have.
